8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is horrible for your child! They don't care about the kids and only care about the kids that are rich or if they are on the school board. Today, my kid asked them if the walls were bulletproof because they are small bricks about 4 inches thick. He got in trouble. A few months back, my kid complained about being harassed and bullied. He also complained about a kid who stabbed him in the hand with the pen and tried to stab him in the eyes. They didn't do anything due to "lack of evidence" even though we showed the wounds and had the kids name. My kid also got in trouble because he was making up assignments and recieved ISS. Do not bring your kids here.Parent Review10mo ago - Buford Academy
