I think you have some issues.
1. Kids get sick...usually in school when they are around other kids who get sick...
2. Find out why the teacher was fired. Make sure you check with parents and the director or principal. I was fired from a day care center for no reason and the director made up reasons on the spot for the parents who were VERY surprised. So if the director's reason differs from the reason given by parents, you have a problem.
3. The bus aide may have quit because of personal reasons. Maybe he/she got a job offer he/she could not refuse. Maybe she has family problems...
4. Children lose things. Accept that or your will have lots of problems in the future.
5. What difference does it make what the teachers' sexual orientations are? Do they do a good job with the children? That's all that really matters. Although I am not gay, I was offended by your comments about the possibly gay teachers. There are as many straight promiscuous people as gay ones and if people are in a committed relationship, who cares???
6. I do think spanking is wrong. If that is happening, get your kid out of that school yesterday!
7. Your message was very hard to read, because of the grammar and spelling errors. Both are important parts of netiquette. Your question is a very long run-on sentence. I don't even understand the part: "kids geting out of the class age preschool to the firts grade." If your grammar and spelling were better, you would not have people responding with nasty comments.
8. That said, if you are unhappy with the school, find another one.

Sounds like an awful lot of things are happening at that school... Perhaps they have too many students and not enough staff?! Now, kids do tend to get sick quite frequently in the first months of school- all those new kids and new germs. But the losing the shoes and children... kind of careless, I think. I would start looking for another childcare arrangement immediately. As a preschool teacher, this classroom would horrify me. There is no reason that a child should be able to wander out of class unnoticed. It sounds as if the supervision level is not what it should be, and I'd take my preschooler out. Look for a center which is NAEYC accredited (best case scenario) or a center with a very low ratio of students to staff (say 4-6 children per staff member) for ages 3-6. The more (educated/experienced) staff available, the better. Ask to find out the average amount of time a teacher has been at the center. If the turn-around rate is very high (say, the average teacher stays with the center a year or less) then look somewhere else. You want staff that is not only educated, but has longevity at the center (this means that the staff are treated well and paid adequately for the tough job they do). Spanking the children is just unacceptable. A good center would not do this- they would have techniques for dealing with behaviors and managing them. Remove your child. Good luck!

What exactly is the problem? I really don't see what is wrong, kids get sick all the time, teachers get fired, people quit all the time!? Kids, especially young kids lose their shoes and sometimes even take home the wrong shoes especially when dad picks them up. About the first grade thing what do you mean? The spanking thing is the only thing that I have a problem with though. If it's legal in your state then I guess there's nothing wrong but sometimes kids tell stories. Especially when they don't want to go to school. How old is your child? Oh yeah spell check does work.

Sounds to me like you have some personal issues with some of the staff there. First, when a group of kids get together illness
increase. Second, how do you know the teacher was fired?
People quit all the time and as to the sexual orientation of some of the teachers...how do you know? Did they tell you this?
I think you would have problems no matter where your child attended school. Perhaps the school won't let you stay is because you have some issues and you tend to cause trouble?
If you really do not care for the school then remove your child and
enroll your child some where else.

Children get sick in school especially if they haven't been around a large group of children before. (It is quite common.)
It wouldn't bother me if a teacher got fired, it might be a sign that they are looking out for the children's best interest.
Kids loose supplies and pieces of clothing all the time also.
I'm not sure I understand if you are saying kids are being moved from different grade levels or what. That doesn't really bother me.
The sexual orientation of the faculty doesn't bother me that much either.
What does bother me is that they won't let you in to observe a class. I understand not wanting a parent to stay the whole day, but the school should have an open door policy for all of it's parents.
If you have the feeling that this is not a good place for your child, follow your heart and do what you think is best. I would certainly talk to your child and see how your child feels. But these strong feelings shouldn't be ignored.

Hell no I would change schools and I would call the freakin authoruties or the school district too cause that is bull ****.. you can go and sit in your childs class anytime u like that is your right.. they know me at my kid's school I always did that.. sounds like they need to get thier act together and u need to make some phone calls to the distric and get some people fired or transferd out. It is your childs education and u should do everything in your power to make it the best that it can be. and if anyone ever I dont give a crap who they are if they are spanking my kid.. I would own that school and I would beat the holy crap out of the person that touched my kid.. or any kid for that matter!

You don't mention the age of your child.
A lot of things happen at the beginning of any school year. Then things settle down to a routine. Be sure and check the state inspection ratings on any preschool your send your child to. This will help you decide.
I say the following, in all kindness, learn to spell or at the very least use spell checker, and this applies to at least 50 percent of the people who use this sight. You will soon be helping your little guy with spelling.
Best wishes with your decision!

I would march right down there and see what is going on for myself. Contact the Principal of the school by written note and state your concerns so that you have them in writing and keep a copy of it for your records. Set a date and time to meet with him/her to get the answers you need. Take charge but be sure to keep an open mind, your intuition most likely is right, however, you may not have all the facts yet so do not jump to conclusions until you do some fact finding. Being a parent of a kindergartener myself, I have found that what happens at school is not just to be left for the schools to handle; you are your children's advocate. You have to find ways positively partner with your school. They are understaffed and over burdened, so find a way to help out, sacrifices you make in your schedule to help your school will be the best investment in your child’s future. I hope that your school has a PTA, I urge you to get involved and additionally express your concerns to the teacher. Ask how you can help in the class, it may be that you cannot attend due to work but certainly you could assist at home in some way. I guess it boils down to this, help get the class on track what ever way you can. Keep an open and helpful dialog with your child's class teacher and stay involved and on top of your child’s learning. If work that is coming home is not complete or not up to what you know they can accomplish, find out what you can do to help get them up to speed. School is a place to learn and should be safe and orderly, but I have found that in order to keep the schools accountable we must be willing to be involved in the process. Our children are our greatest asset and our job as parents is to keep on top of things along the way when they don't seem to right. Do you pull your child out of school? Ask some questions, get answers, state your concerns and your expectations and get involved and then decide. We all have similar concerns and I wish you the best of luck! I read a few answers that were pretty nasty in regards to your proficiency in english. Being a parent is not about being able to spell correctly, your concern about your child's well being is the only thing that matters here not the way you express in writing. If you need help in the future guiding your child in areas that you yourself need improvement, which we allllll do have, ask for help from someone that happens to have that skill. We and our children will always run into people that are mean spirited and that is unfortuneate! You as a parent, by asking tough questions and getting involved, spelling and grammers correct or not, are on a path that is full of success for yourself and your child!

Wow I would really be concerned if i were you. Honestly I think I would spend a day or two at the school to see what really goes on. If it's not what you like then take him out. You have that right. Good luck.
