Was once one of the better schools in Maury County for students and teachers. For teachers today trying to do their jobs effectively, not so much. School administration can be incredibly overbearing and micromanaging, which has led to many outstanding teachers leaving. The better teachers always seem to leave. Overall culture seems to be in decline.

This school review is a real challenge. The principal and some teachers overcompensate. In the area of allowing parent participation and control. There is limited parental evolvement. There are some fallacies that reflect that parents are encouraged to be around. For example, parents were once allowed in all grades to come and oversee a class and see how their child was doing. Thus this kind of vulnerability was a good thing. At this moment fear and distrust abounds. From a parent that has wanted to have more interaction there has been limited opportunities. My child further tells me the Principal is mean. I have heard her talk and offer her tone can come across as sharp and harsh. Whether she knows it or not. On a positive point the school seems to be becoming diverse which is a good thing. Those considering on having a child come to this school. Be aware of these observations. The education is not bad as far as learning. The overall grade of 5 is deserved and accurate per this parent’s observations.

Spring Hill Middle School is an unsafe/harassment school environment from multiple teachers. The students are aloud to get away with numerous things and their correction is being put into ISAS with a teacher that is verbal abusive to the child and no oversight. There are several stories of the teacher calling them names, cursing at them, and just being on her phone with headphones in. The recent actions the school principal threatening to strip search a child without parental consent shows the lack of care for the child. With information on the child being withdrawn, he was being shown prejudice with limit access that was previously aloud, as well as told that his grades will be affected by the withdraw. This is how my son was treated by teachers and the principal (Sparrow) at Spring Hill Middle School.
