This place has an onerous contract, with no trial period, that means you must pay for an entire year of care. Despite the contract, it was worth $10000 to get my daughter out of this weirdo situation and into somewhere more accepting and fun. My daughter doesn't have special needs. But they did kick out another child, a friend of ours, who is on an IEP. The staff and teachers and aids were all lovely, no problems with them.

Fairland Elementary school has really went down hill since the pandemic. The teacher's and office…read morestaff seems like everything is to hard for them to do! We have all been through the pandemic the past three years, not only Fairland elementary school staff. I myself went to Fairland as a child and my son who's now in college is a former student. Before the pandemic I had few minor issues with staff (not teacher's) doing their job, but now it's all bad! I requested a call from the principal, who never returned my call , but had the nurse call me instead. My son's current teacher seems to not have any connections with her student's, and the attendance secretary is the worst I have ever encountered. She's rude and dismissive, she will sit there behind the computer while's you're ringing the doorbell and will not answer it unless you walk up to the door and then she acts like she didn't hear it. Several parents have reached out to me from my son's class and all seem to be having the same issues with this school. I know it all starts from the top. If you don't like your job that you applied for and are receiving a paycheck from, then quit! Replace the entire office staff and teacher's who don't want to be there.

It feels like a very solid staff-to-camper ratio. My son really likes the counselors and they seem very friendly and professional at pickup and drop off. One big selling point for us is they have a lot of indoor space to take the kids on extremely hot days or when there's bad weather, significantly more than other summer camps we looked at in the area.

After going to good counsel, I can say it's the worst catholic high school to send your child to…read more The "deans" are some of the rudest and careless people you will ever meet and i think everyone at the school would agree. There were times I would say hi to them, and instead of being nice, they would respond rudely or try to find something I was doing wrong. Yes, it is their job, but you can be decent about it. The rules are extremely strict, which caused me to feel anxious just walking into the school, scared I'd mess one thing up. They don't allow you to be on your phone, no matter what time of the school day it is. I received a detention (which is on Saturday mornings) because my mom was texting me about my grandmothers health, updating me on her surgery. They don't care what the reason is, even if it's something understandable. They block cell service throughout the school to prevent this, which is honestly scary if something were to ever happen in the building. The deans make it there lifes goal to shit on every student no matter when or where. Some teachers are very good at good counsel, but many are careless. I had teachers not grade my work for multiple weeks, which caused me to be stressed about my grade the whole quarter. Another thing is that the food is horrible. They make it seem so good during shadow visits, tours, etc. The food is of poor quality, and there were times it wasn't even warm. The school throws problems under the rug that involve staff that affect the students who go there, lying to everyone about the true reasons things happen to make the school seem better. Lying in public announcements and not valuing the catholic values is something good counsel does really well. Sure, they offer mass daily, but the staff lacks in truly keeping the values. The school supports homosexuality to a point where it seems more drastic than public schools. Supporting that as a school is something that should be implied, but the way good counsel does it is too much, which makes students feel uncomfortable. From hearing the staff is seriously considering gender nutural bathrooms and that they have pride flags in rooms within the school is something I do not think a catholic school should promote as much as they do. The future of this school does not look good if you are trying to send your child to a school to avoid these things, which is a reason I went there because they made it seem so different than it is during shadow days and tours.

The student is held at a much higher standard, causing there to be many restrictions, even in the higher grades. Most teachers care not only about what they teach, but the students themselves. While this school excells in teaching work habits, it seems somewhat lacking in teaching social habits. You will most likely not have the same social-life experience that most high schools offer. Relationships between students seem strictly taboo similarly to relationships with coworkers. Despite this, I found my best friend here, and had a wonderful experience I will never forget. You will not regret going here in the slightest. ps give Mrs. Wilgenburg a raise she works too hard and bring Abbot and my boi Jeremy back thanks
