[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think both NCC and CCES, all of Rosemary Hills, have had it uniquely hard and I do not mind saying so at all.   In fact, I feel the administration needs to be made aware of it.   I hope it by being vocal, it stops them from making another mistake in boundaries.

I'll give just a taste of some of the things we've gone through.  For example,  my CCES son spent the last 2 months of second grade crying his his eyes out with major anxiety over leaving his NCC friends.  The separation anxiety of leaving his friends since he was 5 completely overwelmed him  his school work and his life at home suffered.  Among RHPS kids, the split is all they talk about that last year.  They know and are not ok with it.  Just so happened that his classes at RHPS were always primarily NCC kids and they became very close as kids at a tender age do.

Or how about the time RHPS lost my 5 year old when he boarded the wrong bus?.  And we couldn't find him.  With so many buses going so many different directions so many miles apart it was terrifying.

Or about how one if my sons got so bus sick from his route because it was so long hat he started wearing motion sickness arm bands and when those failed we started driving him to another stop closer to the school instead of walking to the stop closer to our house.

Or not being able to go to both my third grader and kindergartners Halloween parades or parties and the schools won't stagger the parties so parents can go to both?. The tearsfor this reason alone  in so many households is a common theme among RHPS parents.  Should I go on?. The list is quite long and it's not exclusive to my household.  MCOS needs to take these things into consideration in the new middle.  Speaking up makes them aware even if you gind it distasteful or it makes you uncomfortable. [/quote]

I was kind of with you until you mentioned you not attending a during school party as a hardship...  Give me a break.  Most kids will never ever see the parents during school hours.[/quote]
