The closure of the Mission Hill K-8 School will mark the end of the school’s eccentric 24-year history — and of a twilight marked by misconduct revelations, interventions by Boston Public Schools administrators and community outcry.
A puzzling double image of the Mission Hill School emerged ahead of the school committee’s vote Thursday night.
It details patterns of bullying, violence and sexual touching by a number of Mission Hill students that they say staff failed to stop or even report — as well as failures to deliver the appropriate public education to which students with disabilities are entitled., said she recommended closing Mission Hill “swiftly” only after considering other options, including layoffs, installing an “intervention team” at the school or delaying the closure by a year.
Andy Crowe, who has three children at the school, said he was sad that any children felt unsafe there, but added that “when you break an arm, the doctor does not tell you to get it amputated.” Over 10 years as a Mission Hill parent, Crowe said, “my kids were in the hands of very caring and thoughtful teachers.”
