I have taken much time and pondered my thoughts extensively as it pertains to writing this review. Please know that it comes from a place of passion, hurt and confusion. This review will be extensively, but I urge you to read it in its entirety.

Firstly, I want to say that my wife and I had high hopes for this school when enrolling our three-year-old daughter. My name is Gerry Gordon and I am writing and advocating for my wife and daughter who have been tremendously affected by the misconduct of Annie Wright schools.

Secondly, I want to address that due to the numerous accounts of negligence and social injustice my daughter endured I am convinced there is no diversity inclusion training or awareness within the Lower school staff, before and after school staff and its counterparts.

Why do I say these things? Here are the things my daughter had to endure in only a 6-month period. Not in any particular order.

1. My daughter got ill with the flu due to the Annie Wrights lack of communication.

To expound on this topic, I received an email stating that my daughter was out of sorts , lethargic and not herself. Still having trust in the educators and nurse at this point, my wife and I took their advice to monitor her and check for a fever. We asked their opinion if we should come and they said NO she doesn t have a fever.

Mind you we were never called but emailed and who knows how long she was sick. Come to find out she was in the nurse s office for over an hour maybe more. Long story short, my daughter ends up with the flu because I decided to take her to the doctor because the next day she returned to school and got a fever. On multiple occasions, we have seen her outside in the cold without a jacket. WE WERE NEVER CALLED ONCE while she exhibited concerning health signs. The nurse and the teachers refused to call and said email their primary form of contacting parents, even after I BOLDY requested phone calls due to the nature of my job and my wife s schooling. My daughter getting the flu could have been avoided with better communication.

2. My daughter was walking around barefoot

I m not sure how long this took place because we were never told or notified. The school requires extra shows and socks and she has rainboots. There is no reason for my child to walk around school for who knows how long without any shows or socks on. Once again it was treated as a simple thing and hardly addressed.

3. My daughter told us she was hit by a door from one of the staff that works directly with her.
This concerned us, and we always follow up with the staff when our daughter tells us something. This said the staff has treated my wife and very different when trying to communicate simple things like good morning . She even said Bria didn t like her for some odd reason. When confronted about the door situation her response we it was an accident .

4. My daughter went an entire day without eating lunch.

This was the final straw for us. I picked my daughter up at 5 pm and the first thing she said to me was Daddy I didn t eat lunch today . I was concerned but questioned her and she insisted she didn t eat. Upon arriving home, I checked her lunchbox to validate her claim and there was a sticky note on there from her ticker that read,
