"I WENT TO SCHOOL THERE STARTING 1945 TO 1948 FIRST AND SECOND GRADES"

"My kids have been going to this school for 3 years and they do not have a 14 to 1 student to teacher ratio. Look at the yearbook and you can see the true ratio. My kids have always had at least 20 kids in a class, and up to 23. Part of the year a college kid may come help the teacher, but it's not a certified teacher. They don't even have enough staff to provide reading intervention to all the kids who need help. Only the worst of the worst get the help needed. And because of all the kids who need help with reading, they don't have anyone to provide math intervention to kids who are struggling. They need more teachers. If they really did have a 14-1 teacher to student ratio then they probably wouldn't have so many kids who need help, and kids being told they don't have room for them. The teachers try and are good people - but 20+ kids in each class is too much!! And they need 4-6 interventionists to help kids with reading and math. I think they currently have one for the whole school."
