We are very dissatisfied with the elementary school for our children. There is a great deal of friction between the principal and the teachers so that many of the teachers don't give their all to the children. We are otherwise happy with our neighborhood because of our neighbors, it is in close proximity to our respective offices and easy to get there so moving is a last option. I would like to get an opinion about home schooling since we can afford the expense.
