My child went to the school in Far Rockaway. Christine Douglas is the principle for both schools in Queens and Brooklyn. She and two of her staff members (Rosamond English-Hunter, Glennis McKenzie) removed my child from the classroom (where there were cameras) into their staff office (where there were no cameras) and assaulted my child because she threw an age appropriate temper tantrum. They lied about it and the teachers (Gail Cummings, Roxanne - the blind teacher) deflected and told lies on my child. In retaliation the teachers did nothing for my child when another child pushed her on the floor because he wanted a toy she had. If you ever have this problem with this school, be sure to report them immediately after your child accuses them, to the following: 100th Precinct (718) 318-4200, Child Protective Services 1(800) 342-3720,NYC Special Commissioner of Investigations 212-510-1500, 311 for the Dept. of health and Mental Hygiene. With enough complaints against them, they will eventually be charged even if they leave no bruises on your child. Do not be discouraged. These people claim to be Christians, so in that case, the laws of the bible that expressed punishment from God for mistreating children, will apply to them and GOD will make them pay dearly and he would make sure to make you and your child privy to it.
