Gee, I wouldn't want my kid at this school.

I don't (and didn't) have any problem with a blunt speaking administrator. It was quite refreshing compared to the wishy-washy principal my DD had for kindergarten.

All kids are different, so perhaps yours would not have like it there, but our DD had an overall great experience at this school with its matter-of-fact administration.

For gifted children, doing nothing is the wrong choice.
