Our experience at this school has been deeply disappointing. While there are several exceptional teachers here who genuinely care about students and go above and beyond, that level of professionalism and dedication is not consistent throughout the building.Too many staff members seem unwilling to provide meaningful support for students who learn, behave, or process differently than the standard mold. Families of neurodivergent children, in particular, may find themselves advocating far more than they should have to in a school setting.Even more troubling is the administration’s handling of bullying, behavioral concerns, and student safety issues. Rather than addressing problems directly and transparently, there seems to be a pattern of minimizing incidents, deflecting responsibility, and placing blame on the very students affected. That kind of leadership creates an unhealthy culture and sends the wrong message to both students and staff.We came to this district with high expectations and genuine optimism. Unfortunately, our experience has been marked by frustration, lack of accountability, and disappointment. We sincerely hope conditions improve, because every child deserves a school environment where they feel supported, protected, and understood.
