I would go out of my way to make sure this school wouldn''t be responsible for my kids ever again. I dealt with their incompetence for 4 years. My kids were put on the bus when they shouldn''t have been 6 times in those 4 years. SIX times. And the bus drivers actually let them off the bus with no one home as I waited in the school line.. only to be asked if I''m sure I bought them to school that day lol. They''re idiots. And rude. My friend chose to homeschool her child bc of this school. My family chose to MOVE OUR FAMILY to another district bc of this school. It''s insane they''re still operable. We''re now 4 months into our new school year at our new school and it''s phenomenal. Free breakfast and lunch for all kids. Free after school care.. My kids come home HAPPY and the way they need to come home.. not alone on the bus.. it''s truly night and day. Hamilton Co is so much better! Bye bye daily nightmare.
