What school district is Cochran Primary School part of?
We are not happy with this school. The school indicates that parents are welcomed, but once you go, you are told you can only stay for 30 minutes - no longer. Only one class room out of four (for each grade level) is inclusive - meaning that it has all the special education kids. The other three class rooms for that grade level are non-inclusive. Unfortunately, our child has been in the inclusive class for every year. We were told it is our bad luck. They refuse to move our child to one of the non-inclusive classes where our child would have the opportunity to experience a normal class room that does not have 6 to 8 special education students and the several teachers/aides that also are in the classroom to support the special education students. It is diffcult for our child to concentrate and learn in that environment.
