A few years ago we put my daughter into a new charter school. We were really excited because on the surface it seemed like she would get a much more tailored and personalized education with better facilities and staff. The only problem is that my daughter has ADHD.
As soon as there were social issues between my daughter and her teachers or her and other students (bullying by other students), the staff quickly turned against us. We met with the principal several times about specific students bullying her but all they wanted to talk about was how she wasn't showing up often enough to school (she often faked being sick to avoid her bullies).
We quickly realized that the school was only concerned about losing funding because of attendance metrics and we pulled her out. It was a horrible experience for us.
