Great Educators in a small country town. Small numbered classrooms which gives more one- on- one with the students/teachers. The staff truly care for their students, way beyond the classrooms. Great Elementary School for my 2 daughters at Tarkington Primary School.

There are a lot of things messed up at this school. The first thing is that the admins do not always follow the dress code. They let boys wear finger-tip length shorts, but the girls would get a full day of ISS for wearing leggings with a long shirt that covers everything. When someone stands up for there self and others, they will get in trouble. The teachers have no support from the admins if they are struggling. Just last year, the high school lost its whole sciences department, half of the reading department, half of the AG teachers, and their only Spanish teacher. Most of their teachers that have been teaching or just started this year want to leave. There is very little help for those struggling students mentally and academically.

This school is trashy and run down,any of the staff are rude and think they are better than everyone. The hallways are typically filled with dead bugs and the bathrooms are closed often.Dont enroll your kids here if you want them to be happy.
