Open Quote Mi hijo quedó seleccionado en la lotería para kinder 2019-2020. Cuando llevé los papeles para la registración, les informé que mi hijo tiene un IEP. Luego de la junta de este año para actualizar su plan de estudio se los llevé, ahí comenzó mi gran decepción con esta escuela. Primero, los documentos los recibió la Sra Pirela, una de las personas administrativas y comenzó a "revisarlos un poquito" como me dijo ella, esos documentos son confidenciales para uso educacional y no para solo mirar los resultados por una administrativa de la escuela. Luego se los entregó a la persona encargada de ESE de la escuela, me llamó a un lado y me dijo que desafortunadamente mi hijo no podría asistir a Atlantic, le respondí que estaba bien solo quería que mi hijo asistiera a una escuela donde estuviera bien y recibiera el apoyo que necesita. Le pregunté cuál era el motivo, me dijo que el que mi hijo debía ser removido del salón de clases era muy alto. Ahi quedé muy sorprendida y tuve que explicarle cómo leer el reporte, porque ella estaba leyendo el de este año escolar y no el siguiente. Mi hijo tiene 100 de clases regulares !! Ahi me dijo bueno que tenia que estudiarlo con su equipo de trabajo. Luego de una semana me llamó por teléfono para informarme que mi hijo sí podría asistir a la escuela, pero luego de 9 semanas de clases, le harían una evaluación y si era necesario cambiarían su IEP. Otra vez me quedé muy sorprendida y le expliqué que ese IEP es bueno por tres años y no se podía re abrir hasta dentro de un año a no ser que los padres lo solicitemos. Como la persona encargada puede tratar estos casos de esa manera ?? mi hijo tiene language impairment con un IQ muy alto, los reportes de la sicóloga lo avalan. Pero en este lugar, que por cierto tienen un panel con una gran falacia "en esta escuela todos nadamos juntos" Falso totalmente !! En las escuelas, he escuchado muchas veces no juzgues el libro por su portada, bueno eso es lo que hicieron con mi hijo por tener un plan individual de estudio. Lo primero fue la negativa, antes de incluso leer el reporte, fueron directamente a leer los porcentajes y lo peor de todo es que ni siquiera pusieron atención en las fechas. Lo lamento por ustedes que hayan tenido la oportunidad de educar a un gifted kid pero sus negligencias no lo permitieron.
Llevo viviendo 20 años en los Estados Unidos y es primera vez que siento esta discriminación y lo peor de todo es que fue por hispanas. Buena suerte en el proceso de educación para los otros niños que tendrán a su cargo.
Soy la voz de mi hijo ! Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
