Mint Valley Elementary School

The Life Skills Program so far has been a complete success for my handicap child. Where other school gravely failed I can least put faith into the special education program there. I have seen good strives in a short time. I still would like to see the program get more funding which would help the handicapped children who simply cannot main stream successfully. Looking forward to a new year 2016 with great hopes.

First you excuse placing special needs children in a box, and then you send a grown potty trained child home in a diaper? Are you serious? The gym didn't have extra clothing? You could not spare a few moments to call the mother for a change of clothing? What sort of sick joke was this? This is disgusting and I literally want to cry every time I think of what that poor boy felt during the rest of the day and on the school bus. You humiliated this child and should be ashamed of your staff. Obviously the teacher is the blame, but the rest of the staff saw this boy walking around and did nothing. I would not even leave my toddler to walk around in just a diaper let alone a child in elementary school. As for people out there wondering what I'm talking about, a child that was trusted in their care had an accident (every child has an accident from time to time) and instead of calling for spare clothing or finding spare clothing they put a child in a diaper and made him walk around for the rest of the day and ride the school bus home in just a diaper. A special needs child that deserves extra special care was treated as an inconvenience and in my Opinion specifically singled out to be humiliated otherwise I can't imagine why somebody would do that to a child. This administration needs to be cleaned out and replaced with teachers that maintain the basic human organs such as a brain and a heart.

Need to check the teaching credentials of your staff. I've noticed that there are only a few good comments and they are probably from people that work there posing as parents to make themselves look good.

When you put a diaper on a child that is old enough to not need one, and who only needed a change of clothes you have cause so much harm that a child may never recover. This school should be seriously looked by the child protection. You get no stars from me. Though I see I can't post this without a star..... Something is not right.

I am a 4th grade teacher and am appalled at the story I just read about a child wearing no pants and a diaper, also locking special needs students in a small room? I am shocked that this school is still functioning. These are prime examples of school child abuse. How could anyone allow a child to walk around in diapers? Even if you were not the teacher who chose to do something so atrocious, how could you stand by and watch that happen? These are CHILDREN. How can you not protect them? What a horrific experience. This school should be ashamed, and any teachers who participated or stood by when this was going on. SHAME ON YOU.
