This is not a professional place! We were the only African American family there and now I understand why! My family experienced unhinged discrimination and racism.
This school is led by parents that will minimize racial slurs and attacks towards any child that is different.
These parents labeled my African American children as violent when they defend themselves against racism! My children were called racial slurs such as (black bit€hes and monkeys as well as physically assaulted. My daughter was racially insulted by multiple children and hit. She followed the school's procedures to file a complaint with Judicial committee.
The Judicial committee is ran by the same children that will justify their use of racial slurs and give dark skinned children a harsher consequence than the white children!
The parents of these children refuse to take responsibility to learn and then educate their children about the actual issues that's creating the hostile environment like they mentioned during school tours .
The very emotional unstable President Kris K. prefers to pull African American children outside away from a crowd and minimize their feelings by telling them that they are wrong for feeling offended and attempt to blame the conflict on the victim then attempt to make them apologize to the children that were being racially insensitive.
The longest standing family there has very bias opinions towards darker skinned children and a huge influence on the school. I have observed this long lasting family teach children to run from conflict, and avoid accountability instead of teaching children how to handle it serious situations with a more positive thought like conflicts aren't a part of life.
The fact that I believed in this school enough to become the Vice President and then had so many back and forth conversations with some of the board members about them sweeping issues under the rug and not informing parents until the situation blows up is very disturbing!
Please take this warning very serious...
If you have special needs, biracial, African American, or darker skinned children please be on high guard about their emotional well being if you enroll them in this school! It starts as a great place but that soon goes downhill. The family turn overrate there is as high as a fast food restaurant. No everyone is not allowed to have their voice be heard, it's not ran by democracy which is told to families during the school tour, and the parents that are running the school will bluntly ignore their own Sudbury rules, and deliberately delete school records to fit their own bias opinions towards any family that has special needs or requires extra patience for their children! read more
