Elysian Charter School of Hoboken

As the parent of a former student, one of the issues that we had with the school was with regard to safety or lack thereof. No one liked to talk about it but, as of only a couple of years ago, the playground monitors would every so often leave a child behind at the public playground at recess, only to realize he/she was missing when they had returned to the school with the rest of the class. It happened to our child and we heard of other children who were left behind as well. It was a very scary situation and we regret having not reported the incident to the state dept of education. We only hope that the school and director have improved their procedures and accountability.
