Randolph is not what it used to be. When I was a freshman the students were much more focused on getting the best education possible and preparing for college. However, as each year goes by everyone seems to be more and more solely concerned about partying, drinking, and doing drugs. If you don't

The classes available are extremely limited, so you'll take many classes more than once or ones you don't even get credit for simply to fill up your schedule. The staff is ignorant and flip flops on many issues. We had hidden cameras installed in the hallways to monitor students, but nobody watches them and when I asked a staff member if we could review some of the security tapes to find out who stole something out of my locker, i was told it would 'take too long.'

The parent with the October 18th review is unfair.... this school pride themselves on excellence. Transfer students who are accepted are because of their good grades, discipline and attendance. We all know that these categories depend on funding. If these are the criterias that they determine a transfer

The teachers are wonderful, they really do care about their students progress, the adminstrative staff handles issues promptly and appropriate within their power. The school environment itself is extremely safe. Being on a military installation has its perks. The facilities are great, always clean, no graffeti. The kids are respectful and it is a very good invironment. Cannot go wrong! Read less

As a parent, I am most concerned about the safety of my child while I am away at work. I believe that the Randolph High School is a wonderful environment for children of all ages. The athletic program is wonderful and has high standards and also keeps children off of the streets and out of harm's way.

Overall I think the education is outstanding. If you are active duty and will be transferring your child to this school be warned that the school is not accommodating to transfer students. Although the school is on a military base many 'homesteaders' and 'retiree's' children go to the school...new students

I found the school's discipline to be very subjective and grossly different when addressing MALE athletes versus female athletes for the same offenses.

This is one of the most awesome! schools my children have attended. The teachers are very concerned with the learning of the students, (not just concerned with their test taking abilities) Administators are excellent to work with. Discipline problems are almost non-existant!

My son had a wonderful 2 years at Randolph, despite being on an IEP. The teachers go out of their way to make sure he is successful and involved in school life. The classes are small and we are going to miss this school when we move next year. Also the kids are all military and friendly. There are
