I just got off the phone with the Lincoln County Superintendant of Schools office. I called them requesting information about our public schools "alternative school" program at the junior high level. Seems like a simple request, doesn't it? Apparently not.
Our Lincoln County Superintendant of Schools office apparently knows nothing about the programs offered here in the Eureka Public Schools. This alarms me. Is there any communication between these two entities. The reason I wanted to ask about this is because our local school website states that they have an alternative school program for high school students.
If this website is true, then I would like to know why junior high students are placed in an "alternative" program which has only been designed to meet the needs of high school students. I would also like information on the qualifications of the person(s) who are teaching in this program. Are they certified teachers, do they have a special background in dealing with special or difficult cases? Does anyone out there know where I might get my questions answered?
Don't say call the school, they can't even provide me with my sons grades as apparently their computer program doesn't allow them to print out grades for a student who has been withdrawn from the school. This is the ridiculous information which was given to me yesterday by the junior high secretary. Truth, or unwillingness to comply with my request.........you make the call.
