"I moved to Andover for the top rated public schools. I would have just stayed put if I knew what it was going to be like. It's all about the budget and the teachers. The children are just numbers and the parents views are not heard. I had a teacher publicly ridicule and humiliate my child who has a disability. The teacher who did this was commended for her difficult work. When I finally stressed that I knew my child's rights and the disability act things were done but not even close to the extent they should have been. Blame was pointed to home, labels were placed on my child, etc. I honestly feel as though these educators at the WEST ELEMENTARY SCHOOL do NOT have my child's best interest at heart. Not all teachers are bad of course. My children have had some really great ones. The problem is, when there is a problem there is no one to turn to. The principal and vice principal protect their teachers no matter what the wrong doing. I honestly feel like they should not be in these positions. It's all very political."
