My children went to school at East Newton for 4 years and it was one of the worst schools I have ever had to deal with. Most of the teachers are great but some are so horrible that I don't even know how they became teachers. The Principal Dr Coady has no back bone at all and lets everyone tell her how they are going to do what they want and how they think she needs to do her job. I have actually told several parents about how bad the school is and before their children were old enough to enroll or as soon as pre-K was over they moved. So many complain but no one does anything. I have even contacted the BOE several times and yet they have never once done anything about any of the problems. read more
