The Schechter School is a mixed bag. Some teachers are great, others have difficulty with classroom management or even with the subject matter they teach. A lot of parents, from kindergarten to eighth grade, have complaints about the school and the inability of the administration to make positive changes. On the other hand, there are parents (and children) who love the school. When my daughter was enrolled in kindergarten at Schechter, I found her classroom to be regimented yet chaotic, and my daughter did not enjoy going to school. The administration has recently changed (the Head of School left) and the school itself is going to become a community jewish day school in September 2006. The direction that this new school will take is unclear. I'm watching the developments to see what happens.
