School's positives outweigh negatives

To the editor: As a parent of a child in Jessie Mae Monroe Elementary, I felt compelled to speak out against the parents who hold this school in low regard.

I found many of these things that the parents allege to be a tad over-stated, to say the least. My son loves to go to school, and I have had many positive experiences with the staff at Jessie Mae.

They always keep me up-to-date with my son’s progress and have been helpful when I have questions about my child’s education.

There are many positives about this school. Parents should not let the ramblings of one voice drown out the hard work teachers and administrators put in to better our society.
