i love adaire i had two sons in adaire one is still going there i love the teahers and the aides my kids both loved mr V HE IS A GREAT GYM TEACHER HE DOES SO MUCH WITH THE KIDS ITS GOING TO BE A SAD DAY WHEN HE LEAVES THE END OF THE YEAR
If you don't like the school or have so much to say . Why don't you just take your child out . put them in another school. THe grass may be greener on the other side.
I would love to know where you get your information. I guess since your a regular volunteer we will see you at every event this year? Perhaps you can man our new welcome desk, or help with one of the many events we have planned since it is always the same few who come out? I can tell you that many things are going to change this year.
I already told everyone I have volunteered there for many years....I do know what I am talking about...maybe everyone else needs to listen to the children that go there too....that is half of Adair's problem.....they don't take the time out for the children...I listen to adults and the children...not just the adults.
I whould like to tell u that mrs.betty & april are doing a fine job at their work and who ever does not like the way their son/daughter is being treated just come by at lunch time and see how they acted up, My niece and nephew go to this school and i think they get treated very farely.
to the person who had worte the message about betty and april taking up space and time needs to see how their child really needs to see how they act up during lunch time. Instead of talking your time to write it on this web site why don't you come and talk about it face to face. Stop talking trash about the people that do a fine job at what they do......
I am a former student and a parent of a current student and I am truely disappointed! The school has lost their edge...there's no discipline! The test scores have dramatically dropped every year since my daughter started 6 years ago. I think the scores would go back up if order was brought back and discipline was enforced! What kind of punishment is in- house suspension or detention? The kids know that if they misbehave they get rewarded by getting out of class! What happened to after school detention?? Hit the kids where it hurts...cut into their time! I guess that would mean that the staff may need to stay later and actually work for their money!!
I love the schhol but I think they really need to focuse on the bully and the really need a new nurse the one they have now doesn't not do her job my daughter broke her finger and i wasn't notified she is only 7 seven not to mention she tells the kids i don't wanna hear about it go back to class when they come down saying they are sick I really can't want for MR Mcgrogan to come back I am not liking the new principal.
My kids are learning alot but some other issues with other kid pputting their hands on my child they need to worry about bullying more 3 times this year my son was atack by another student and this was the last time i will let my child come home from school with marks on him and a black eye enough is enough yeah boys will be boys it happens but not 3 time and this last time was bad something needs to be done about it ..
I love that school. I was at Richmond School before Adaire & im doing 10 times better now.
