Morris Elementary School

"As a kindergartner at Morris last year(2013/2014) my son's teacher repeatedly yelled at the class, and my son said that she said a cuss word once in class. My husband observed a male teacher yelling at kids in the cafeteria to, "Shut their mouths." When I called to complain about this to the vice principal she was continuously laughing while offering an explanation of why it happened. I do not find that to be a laughing matter. He was pushed off the playground equipment by another student and when he told his teacher she replied by saying, "You're not dead are you?" This at a school that supposedly has a no-bullying policy. As a kindergartner his class was often denied snack time, and as a first grader this year he has not had a snack time at all. The staff and teachers there seem more intent on preparing the kids for institutionalization rather than providing a nurturing and fun learning environment."
