[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our DD experienced bullying by a girl in middle school (made fun of her appearance and that she “looked super Jewish.”) We felt the school handled it very well and appropriately disciplined the girl in question. I think this was more of an issue with this particular child than it was an issue with HA. Sharing as a positive for the school and the swift action they take, when needed. [/quote] I’m glad to hear this. When my daughter experienced middle school bullying, the school was unwilling even to let the girl’s parents know. One of the girl’s parents was on the board. While the girls can be cliquish, the school exacerbates the problem by maintaining the pecking order. Academically, Holton is strong but they have done a lousy job teaching math for years, depending on parents who supplement with tutors or outside programs. It did not start with the previous middle school head. They haven’t quite gotten the formula down. [/quote]
