7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe safety is really bad at one point a threat was made online about a girl saying she wanted to shoot up the school. and instead of punishing her they had a meeting of telling people to stop spreading it. Also the teachers are very sexist there is a teacher and i will not say who but they will let the girls huddle up at there desk and laugh and talk but as soon as a boy talks they get punished. They do this stupid thing and literally limit your bodily functions by only letting you use the bathroom 5 times a week and it sounds not that bad but for some people they might not be able to hold it. They also only give you 5 minutes to use the bathroom. 5!! At a meeting one of the staff said there is something wrong with you if you can’t go to the bathroom in 5 minutes. like excuse me? if you can go poop in five minutes you have superpowers. Another crazy thing is with these 5 passes also includes going to the nurse and locker. The learning is mid but i don’t think i will be using any of this when i get older. While some of the staff members are nice a lot of rules and things others do is outrageous. Definitely would not recommend this school but i have to go to it because i have no other options. cant wait to move onto high school.Student Review1mo ago - James R Watson Elementary School
