That's a lot of "ifs". When you can't get parents to get kids to school on time, there is no sense of respect for school. It's not a daycare center and that's how some of them treat it. You have to simply un-enroll them and move on. Check the PMF for K-2 Reading..what in the world is that? Instructional support is the real problem area. It is virtually non-existent and linked directly to horrible staffing.  Our lower el experience was simply phenomenal.  But this past year in Upper El has been just say "less than stellar." That's where all the lack of leadership and planning manifests itself. Meetings with the ED and former principal were a waste of time--no clue  what to do! I fully expect the PARCC scores to be flat out awful. I don't really agree to with all the PARCC\MAP testing but I do recognize it's importance in placement.

Be very snobby and down right anal! The school needs more parents like that to survive. This may be the last straw unless radical changes are made. At the core, independent charter schools are a business. No way a business can survive like this. The problems won't be fixed anytime soon. I'd recommend looking at other options. We knew in November we couldn't continue and had to scramble to come up with a plan. The lower el experience had us fooled.[/quote]

Bottom Line: The ED expanded way too quickly. SSMA needs to walk before it runs[/quote]
