The choir teacher there is awful and they teaching is okay

As a teacher let me just say there is about a 90% turn over rate due to unsupportive administration and horrible faculty dynamics. Students are unwilling to learn and will walk out of not only the class but the whole school and walk out towards the highways. Students are disrespectful and will be constantly tardy by upwards of 40 minutes to class. There is a fight almost every period and guaranteed at least one every day. Students will do drugs in the bathrooms to the point that they are sectioned and closed off. Faculty are constantly having to dumb down their work to 6th grade reading levels to the point that students still will not turn in their work and sleep in class. It is ridiculous that this school is even allowed to exist in its current state and would be better off being closed down.

I am very concerned about the culture and professionalism at Rosa Parks Middle School in Fresno, Texas. There are behaviors and patterns I have witnessed and heard about that raise serious concerns about how students are being treated and what kind of environment they are learning in.One issue that stands out is what appears to be stereotyping of students based on the type of shoes they wear. I have heard teachers discussing students' shoes and comparing brands, while some staff members themselves wear Jordans and engage in conversations with students about footwear in ways that seem unnecessary and inappropriate for a school setting. This creates an environment where students may feel judged or labeled based on appearance rather than character or academics.Another concerning incident involved an Easter activity where teachers participated in an Easter egg hunt while students were made to stand and watch. From what I observed, there was no similar activity provided for the children at that time. It is difficult to understand why students would be excluded from something meant to be fun and engaging, especially during a holiday event.There was also an event where a radio station visited the school, and teachers were dancing to music by YoungBoy and singing along to lyrics that I personally found inappropriate for a school environment. Educators should model professionalism and appropriate behavior at all times, especially in front of impressionable students.Additionally, I have witnessed staff members speaking to students in ways that sound more like street conversations than respectful communication with children. During visits to pick up my child, I have also observed the campus police officer sitting in the office listening to music while office staff were on their phones, which gave the appearance of a lack of attentiveness and professionalism.Overall, my experience has left me feeling that this school lacks the level of professionalism and student-centered focus that parents expect. I strongly encourage parents in the community to stay involved, pay attention to what their children are experiencing, and, if necessary, come together to bring concerns to the school district so that meaningful changes can be made.Our children deserve a safe, respectful, and academically focused learning environment.
