My daughter attended Laredo 6-8th grade. There was a steady decline in culture and safety while she was there. There were many physical fights each week, sometimes more than a few a day. Kids feel unsafe to use the restrooms because the common instances of being jumped, kids doing drugs and performing sexual acts. When my daughter was harassed for several months we brought to the school and they did very little to help. This bullying lead to physical assault on her best friend, which led to secondary attacks on line. The school still did little to help regulate and enforce punishment on those involved. The classrooms also have little regulation and disruptive kids are commonly taking over which does not allow teacher's to teach. My daughter suffered emotionally and in her studies while at Laredo.

Truly an amazing school. The principal is very involved and is well loved by teachers , students and parents. My children go to school happy and excited. They are learning and thriving both socially and academically. There are a lot of opportunities for parents to be involved and the PTCO is doing any amazing job in organizing fun events for the kids. I couldn’t ask for more.

I was supposed to graduate from here in 2022. I was being severely bullied by students and even some staff like security were outright rude, discriminatory, and unhelpful. Very few trusted adults in this building. My school counselor helped me drop out the day I turned 17 and while I was greatful then, I wish there were more adults that encouraged me to stay rather than sign off for me to leave without a diploma.
