Rockdale Elementary School

My autistic adhd child has nothing but bad experiences from school. That is until he went to Rockdale Elementary. For the first time, he is making friends, getting good grades and is not being treated as an outcast. He walks in the doorand says "I had a wonderful day!" When he goes somewhere with us, kids say "Hey, Zack! See you at school tomorrow!" My child hated school (I dreaded the first day also." And now, He Loves School! That makes me tear up just typing it!!!! Thanks Rockdale Elementary for making a difference. The first day Zack joined 2nd grade, he began to get upset at his work. A boy in the class room encouraged him by saying "calm down buddy, you'll get it.....just take your time." Thanks to his patience and that child's parents, my son is no longer mad at his work

Getting involved does nothing in this community. My family has been very involved here. We have run a business here, donated time and money to the schools and many churches. We even have family members who have lived here their entire lives (they just aren't wealthy, in small town standards). All this has done nothing to keep the town "elites" from smiling to our faces and throwing knives at our backs. This community simply is not supportive of anyone outside of the select few. And if they decide you aren't one of them, they will run you down until you just can't take anymore, no matter what you do.
