Boston Public Schools — Local services in Boston

Literally I am scared that my kids are going to be lost or trafficked. These people keep coming driving drunk and being late. We also haven’t been able to get to school on time for two years. The people who answer the phones are rude and nasty and they need to be replaced immediately. They don’t care what happens to our children because they don’t belong to them. They are careless with safety and with how they handle parent contact. If the drivers are not coming on time maybe you should stop searching for people with a high school diploma to drive when there are people who actually want to work with no records who could do a better job then the ones who are always late to work and hours late dropping off our kids. My where my bus stop app doesn’t even work and all they can tell me is they don’t know why. Isn’t it your job to find out why the safety tool I have to track my children isn’t working. I’m working on getting a lawyer...

A broken system with the goal to harm all kinds of kids as badly as possible. Lots of tax-payers $$$ spent to maintain comfortable administrative offices while school buildings deteriorate, teachers and principals are paid to do exactly nothing, and bureaucrats openly enjoy abusing their power.

Bullying is encouraged at all levels. Academics do not exist. Free lunches paid by the state are inedible. Water is foul-tasting and border-line poisonous. Not knowing how to read, write or apply logic is scarily normal among administration, teaching staff and, not surprisingly, children.

BPS abuse of children and parents is rampant at every interaction with BPS, in any capacity. Attendance is required at all levels, and homeschooling is hard - hence the BPS is not likely to suffer of lack of "customers" no matter how badly it abuses parents...

Behavior challenges throughout the whole district.Focus on children is a BIG joke. As a former teacher in this district- No support from administration. Parents are Not aware of what is going on in the classrooms. It is very SAD. My nephew recently moved back to Boston and was placed in an "inclusion" classroom. Within 1 month he was bullied verbally and physically assaulted 2 times in the bathroom. The warning signs were evident- before the physical assault my sister could Not move him to another school until he was physically assaulted due to the school departments policy. Thank God his injuries were not severe. He is now at Boston Latin School and doing great. This is the only good school in the district. The rest should be closed down. SEND YOUR KIDS TO PRIVATE SCHOOL or Charter School or stay out of Boston. IT IS ALL POLITICAL....
