My kids have had mostly good teachers and great services.

Ridiculous! They r so rude!! If it says they open at 8am why was I told by two different people that they didnt have their computers set up yet and couldnt help me? I call early, as soon as they open, so I dont have to be put on hold as much. But seriously if you open at 8:00am, you need to have your stuff ready to go!!!

Not only does Avondale have problems but AISD is a complete joke! The faculty focus and take priority for their ratios and school funding but they dont take the safety of the children seriously. I watched my 7 year old son come home tormented by his teacher Mrs. Baker almost the full year of 2016-2017. I begged for them to move him into another class to help him regain his love for going to school after finding his teacher missgrading papers multiple times. My son told me a story of the teacher grabbing the back of his neck and that made me go to them for help but again, the school did nothing. I called the board director for Avondale(Stan Chapman) and he did nothing also. I begged again to move my son to another class and was told that for student ratios, they COULD NOT (WOULD NOT) move him to another room. 3 weeks before school was out I got a call from Mr. B the assistant principal, he had caught Mrs. Baker jerking your son around by his hoodie (exact words). I was furiated and picked both my 2nd grade sons up within 10 minutes a d called APD to file a report. She scratched his neck, ripped his North Face hoodie and when the detective called me back 2 months later I was very displeased and unsettled thinking this is not going to be justified, which it wasnt. Detective Huddleston stated that according to a TX law, a teacher is able to use justifiable force to get a student to listen and my son was not lining up that day so what she did was justifiable. I DO NOT agree and I dont think many other parents would agree with that either. This teacher is hateful, rude and does not need to be in a class with 1 student, much less 20 students. She has a bad temper and yells at her students to get their attention even when parents are around. She will suggest putting your child on medication if she cant handle them since she did the same with her son. This district does not take the safety of their students seriously or parent concern seriously, obviously. You can find Mrs. Baker teaching 2nd grade still at Avondale so make sure you keep your kids away from her!

They violated civil rights, confidentiality, parental rights, committed medical insurance fraud, tried to cover up violence from teachers & other students, justified all their actions as greater good, false statements, or policy. And this is just elementary school level.

These people are rude they dont care about you calling and complaining about how the principles are not doing their jobs and all the teachers are not doing their job I really think they need a whole new school board

Very rude and hateful staff.
