My Opinion

What is up with public schools know days. I had a conference with my daughters principal about trying to hold her back one year. The conference was a waste of time, because the principal told me "There is no reason to hold your daughter back, because we are not sure she can learn anyways". Her teacher did not know what to say for the rest of the conference ( The princpal was fired at the end of that school year on parent and teacher requst). Two days later I am in the office about my son. Him and his friend were jumped by five seventh graders (he was in third grade) on school property during school hours for two bucks. He ended up having surgery on his left eye, beacuse he wears glasses and a pice of his lense was stuck in his eye ( We were told by law enforcement we could not press charges, because the 5 seventh grades were under the age of 13). Same pricepal tells me I need to teach my son how to fight better. So here is what I told the princapal " If you can't educate my kids, or protect them when their in your care. What the hell am I sending them to school for?" Needless to say my husband and I removed our kids from that school, and home schooled them for the rest of year. I will share the rest of the story next week with you.
