This school needs to watch the teachers better then the kids. My son has been grabed and talked down. My son and other kids tell me all the time that kids are getting grabed and talked down to so i think we as parents need to ask our kids what goes on every day after school and if your child was grabed or talked down to then talk to the school board about it Mr. Bicle office this happen every day and i dont think kids tell the parents. We can not let this happen any more lets stand up for our kids rights. Thank you
