Central Lee has a HANDFUL of issues that are hidden by administration and staff. There have been no changes to the demographics of this district for YEARS, and it shows. Some may turn it over to be the "area" that they are in. However, that is COMPLETELY false. Surrounding schools may have their given faults, but they are consistently taking students and families of different ethnicities. Whether a student isn't welcomed, bullied and chased out of this school, or they have heard the stories of previous issues with discrimination, I can confidently say that Central Lee does not accept ethnic persons. The principal of this high school has verbally told staff and students that anyone who comes to Central Lee who was not born in the area or have families who have gone to school there, they will be addressed as outsiders; and those students and families have been treated with the most disrespect and devalue I, and 107 families have ever seen. No one is there for students besides a handful of staff to address issues efficiently and CORRECTLY; they are all too busy acting so that the school can create a face. This school needs to have a realty check and SOON. More and more families are realizing the faults of this staff, and it will all surface soon. Don't send your kids here if you are new to Southeast Iowa, they will not receive the same opportunities or treatment as the kids who have generations being born and raised in the same 30 mile radius.
