I’m deeply disappointed with how this school treats its students. As a place that should prioritize education, safety, and emotional well-being, it has consistently failed to meet even the most basic expectations.

There’s a clear lack of empathy and support from many of the staff and administration. Children are often disciplined harshly for minor infractions, and instead of creating a nurturing environment, the atmosphere feels cold, punitive, and dismissive. Concerns from both students and parents are routinely ignored or brushed off, and communication with families is minimal unless it involves criticism or punishment.

It’s heartbreaking to see young students discouraged, anxious, or even afraid to go to school. Every child deserves to feel respected and supported, but that’s simply not happening here.

If the school leadership is serious about improvement, it needs to take a long, honest look at its culture, policies, and treatment of students. Change is not only necessary—it’s urgent.
