Name out there you could get sued for that. I'm already gone after her she threw a pencil at maelie face that that you can't do that. You look under a bullying when it gets physical. It's time to go to place.

It has very home like feeling, like everyone is welcome and belongs here. The principal is approachable and cares. She listens to your concerns and does not dismiss them. This is a caring and giving school. The principal knows all the students names in all grades. She greets everyone with the biggest smile.

The school exceeding my expectations. My daughter was transferred to school from charter school. The employees really cares about the students and there is parent involvement that matters.

Dobson truly is a gem. Small and friendly with an extremely involved home and school association. I was concerned about sending my child to public school with all of the cut backs and issues going on with the district, but Dobson has by far exceeded my expectations and my child is thriving there. This is a high quality school that almost seems to fly under the radar, but is in my view comparable to Meredith, Penn Alexander, etc. This is what a small neighborhood public school is all about. Keep up the good work!
