[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]East Silver Spring elementary school also feeds to Takoma Park MS and Blair. It's a smaller school than TPES/PBES.[/quote]

OP here. We haven't seen a single house in ESS elementary, so maybe that area is out of our budget?  [/quote]

How about this one? https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/8407-Galveston-Rd-Silver-Spring-MD-20910/37283393_zpid/?[/quote]

OP AVOID East Silver Spring at ALL costs. A five year old was neglected by the school staff, managed to wander of campus, and then verbally berated by the principal and staff and tormented by the police. It was all over the news. Absolutely horrific incident. Do not send your children to this school. [/quote]

That was indeed a horrible incident, but no, it was not the principal, it was an AP, and she no longer works there. The police officers involved were the worst offenders here, and their behavior is not the fault of the school. ESS is a great school and community despite this isolated, terrible incident.[/quote]

+1 Having (sadly) watched the whole tape, the AP failed to protect the child from the verbal abuse by the police, but she did not herself engage in any abuse. Standing on the sidelines of police violence is inappropriate, but let's keep the discussion within the realm of facts.

The principal was offsite at a meeting. A child left campus and was followed the entire way by the assistant principal, who was mandated by MCPS policy to call the police rather than trying to physically apprehend the eloping child. Then, the police picked the child up down the road (again, with the AP right there) and the police verbally abused the child for more than an hour. For a lot of that time, the child's mother was in the room participating in the abuse.

The bad guys in this story are the police, who did not face repercussions for their actions. The AP and the mother were both bystanders, and again should have stepped in, but PP"s narrative is just not truthful.

The AP deserved to lose her job for standing by, even if the mother was on board, but that was the extent of it.[/quote]

Funny. I saw the whole tape too. And saw ESS administrators standing by AND participating in the torment of a FIVE YEAR OLD. Also, how are you glossing over the fact that this child managed to walk off the school property?!? What kind of supervision - or lack there of - led to that?  OP, so your research. Lots of great ES pyramids in the DCC - many of them already posted. Avoid ESS at all costs. [/quote]

Kids walk off school property. It's a thing that can happen. They followed the kid and called police, which is the policy they're supposed to follow.[/quote]
