I have a physics teacher grade 11, and it is so bad because we get marks back and we are never told about how we can succeed while doing a lab, and our teacher picks and chooses what to mark and it’s very frustrating because she will tell one group information and tell nobody else. We just want to succeed and it is very difficult when our teacher doesn’t want us to.

This school had so much potential and for years was run by incredible admins. The last few years however have been an absolute dumpster fire! Constant staff changeover, kids running around ,students frustrated ,staff frustrated and needs increasing. Recipe for disaster!!!!!
They have lost their best staff and this is just compounding the problem. The school board needs to make some changes to admin but would rather see over 20 staff leave. Run away from this school.

I have to say I’ve never experienced such a staff low as in the past two years working in this school environment. It doesn’t seem anybody walking the halls is happy (with management). Although staff is very supportive to each other, I see EAs working hard every day to support their students with shortage of staff and high level of students that need support. Support is taken away from some students and given to others & students are clustered in areas because of shortages. Overall, staff morale is very very low. Us teachers, and EAS are struggling, not getting support that is needed in the classrooms resulting in burnout! We can all pretend to a certain point , but this is actually ridiculous!

My child had a confidentiality breach from an EA at this school. My child's location and attendance to this trip was released by an EA to a family member that had zero contact for the last 4 years. He was then left unattended on the trip where the family member approached my special needs child and then was taken away from the group. I had shown up at that point for the field trip and found my child left unattended with this individual. At that point no one would own up to why my child was released to this person. *** the principal who is out of tenants at this field trip showed very little care about the incident and even after the fact that this was brought to the board still showed very little care. This isn't the first time I've experienced this with *** when in regards to my child's safety (As my child had been attacked by another child in the school prior). *** then protected this EA and refused to have any disciplinary actions happen other than re-educating on confidentiality. My child's information continued to be leaked by the EA after the fact and still nothing was done about it. It came to the point where I had to remove my child from the school due to ***'s negligence.

Parents at St Andre your voices will not be heard if you do not hold these despicable people who call themselves educators accountable. If alot of you are aware of what is going on is this school you would be traumatized. *** and *** by far is the two worst teachers at this school. Another thing, *** is ***'s spy so be very aware at kiss and ride. Parents with special needs children those two teachers are your worst nightmares for your children. The worst EA there is ***. All she is good for, is yelling and screaming at your children. Please parents, write letters to the board, trustees, MPs, ministry, human rights and most importantly to ***. If that does not work make sure you send letters to the media until you get heard. The things that are happening in this school is beyound comprehending. We all as parents need to join forces and fight. We are always stronger in number.
