What Is Happening In Our Kids' Schools?? A Parent's Voice...

Is your child in a Centennial School? Do you have questions / issues with what is going on in your childs school? Have you voiced your concerns only to have it fall on deaf ears? Speak up right here!

Most parents think "I know what is going on in Johnny/Jane school".  I thought the same thing until recently....Let me ask you a question. As an adult, how would you feel if you were getting in line to get your lunch at a cafeteria or buffet and the workers there said "you must first remove your jacket before you can get your food or be patted down before your leave to make sure you are not stealing." 

You would be insulted and offended, RIGHT???

Welcome to Centennial Elementary where your child is treated like a juvenile delinquent.  My child is not a thief and I don't expect them to be treated like one!

  Can someone please tell me what kind of message that is sending to our children!!  Where is the trust and respect that our children deserve??  Why were parents not informed as to what is going on??  What gives them the right to do that??? 

As a parent, what do you think about this?  How do you feel about your child's school?  Do you have any school issues?

I am putting this out there because I feel parents have a right to know what goes on in our schools.  It is obvious that the school is not going to inform us! We need to communicate with each other.  I have spoken to many parents and some of the stories they have shared with me are just downright wrong!   

That is why I have created this blog.  To share our stories.  To voice our frustrations.  To speak up and not be criticized or judged.  To know that someone is listening to you!!
