School Reviews
1 As far as the whole school goes I have no problem but I'm tired of having to deal with the office lady anytime I call with a question or concern or walk in she just talks down to you like you're a worthless piece of crap like you don't give a crap about your kid with her little snark comments and snark attitude like you do you have nothing better to do with your self-loathing life to take whatever your problem is out on everybody else, I've talked to other parents and they feel the same way it's pretty ridiculous that the schooling district can just let someone like this basically almost be the face of the school treat hard-working parents who just want better for their children! She needs Jesus, is what she needs. - Posted by Parent - Famine |
