School Reviews

5   10/7/2020
We are thrilled with Kimberly Lane. We started Kindergarten mid-year and just before quarantine, but my son was able to bond quickly with his teacher. The school itself is beautiful, well-managed, and led by an extraordinarily caring principal (Dr. W). Teachers are accessible, caring and capable. There is a lot of school spirit and kids seem to be pretty kind overall. We have been impressed by the diversity at the school (lots of awesome immigrant families from all over the world and some opportunities to share cultures and broaden kids'' horizons). My son genuinely loves school, even during these crazy times. We even adore our bus driver! Yay for Kimberly Lane!

Teachers in 19 States Allowed to Physically Punish Students
As of 2014, nineteen states still allow corporal punishment – spanking and paddling the most common choices – in their public schools. However, some argue that not only are these punishments physically harmful, they also are disproportionately administered to students of color. As a result, House democrats have taken up the issue in a new bill that would ban all forms of corporal punishment nationwide.
