Lawrence Farms Orchards,Inc. 39 Colandrea Road Newburgh,N.Y. 12550 Phone: 845-5624268 FAX: 845-561.-7885 Harmony Christian School 1790 Route 211E Middletown, NY 10941-3737 Dear Melanie, It is with regret that we feel the need to write this letter to you. During your recent visit to our farm with your school group, we were incredibly disappointed in their behavior. We found them to be disrespectful and destructive. They did not obey the rules which were explained to both the students and their parents and they caused damage to buildings in the Little Village. During this visit several of our staff members spoke to the children, their teachers and the chaperones. To our dismay the behavior did not improve. We also received complaints from some of our other customers regarding their behavior. Although you had sufficient chaperones present the children were not adequately supervised. Regretfully we will no longer be able to accept your school group for trips to the farm. We thank you for your Past Patronage. Sincerely, Rick and Jane Lawrence

If you are looking for a place where your children will be noticed, loved, taught and challenged to reach their full potential, this is it. My kids are able to advance at their own pace. One of their teachers bought extra books (with her own money) for my first grader because she noticed that he was an advanced reader. 3 of my 4 children are in advanced Math and can continue to learn at their own pace. The atmosphere is like an extended family and when there are problems, they are dealt with in love and grace. Awesome school!

The new programs geared toward higher levels of learning far surpass their public neighbors

They really care about the quality of education that their students receive and they are equally concerned about the moral and spiritual growth of the kids.

No. I have heard of teachers setting up FB pages on areas of study so students can use technology as a learning tool. All posts are public and private messages are disabled. I won't even friend former students. I do it as a rule-no hurt feelings.

No! As an educator, I don't want to be held responsible for what students are doing outside of the classroom.

Absolutely not. Most schools offer the homework question site through the school system. They do not need to be "friends" with their students through social networking sites.
