GBRiverton Street Charter Zoo I don't know where to start. Ok this school year has been one of the worst experiences ever. Very unorganized, no one knows what the other is doing all the way up to the board of the school. Teachers vary depending on the teacher but all the greats are leaving because i believe they see the plane going down and fast. Bullying in the school is at an all time high and even when done in front of a dean there is no repercussion for the bully. No one answers the phone, ever i, actually called 30 times in a day and never got an answer. Favoritism is shown to stay at home parents that have time to be in the school all day. It's a complete zoo, they don't know which children leave with who. This is a very bad situation and although at this point I'm being forced to take my daughters out, i would hate to see another child hurt or taken because no one spoke up.

GBKindergarten-8th Grade Schools Aren't Always a Good Idea I have learned after 4 years that I don't much care for schools that include kids kindergarten-8th grades. They tend to lump them all together very often, but speak to everyone as if everyone is in 1st grade. I think as kids grow into teenagers, they need to feel 'individualized' more and have opportunities to be themselves and not feel like 'little kids', which I feel a K-8 school makes them feel like. I don't believe NHA teachers are any better than those of public schools, however I do believe that experiences for the kids are better because parents tend to be more involved/concerned, having enrolled their child(ren) there instead of public schools, where trouble tends to happen more often due to troubled home lives.

GBIn dealing with NDSD in Dayton Ohio my… In dealing with NDSD in Dayton Ohio my children will never attend another NHA school. I would not recommend any of their schools. I have made complaints about the staff at NDSD in Ohio to NHA and none of my concerns have been resolved. The staff at this school is terrible for exception of the main principal, and the secretaries. The teach don't know how to handle students with behavioral problems or IEP. They threaten children with more homework or suspension which they have no authority to do.

GBAverage Education Don't feel safe driving to and from school... The school needs to have more safety signs, signal anything that help promote safety!!! SAFETY should be the schools number one goal.
