Half Hell

Bolivia is one of the poorest performing schools academically in our state. Their teachers are overwhelmed with large classes and are unable to support the children’s needs academically or emotionally. Behavior issues amongst students including bullying and physical violence are common. The teachers themselves lack tact and respect when dealing students, often treating them inappropriately in ways that can be seen as bullying themselves as well as outright abuse in some cases. Admin are not helpful as their main goal is to cover up and make excuses for their teachers behavior. Admin rarely take any action that brings about positive change and make excuses for the outlandish behaviors from teachers, allowing it to continue. Low socioeconomic status of this area and rampant drug use heavily color the culture of the school and it can been seen in the attitudes, behavioral issues and academic performance many students exhibit. If you care about your child’s education and emotional well being I strongly suggest you steer clear of this institution.
