High school basketball c team it’s very obvious that she has no idea on how to coach I have been coaching for 20 years and she doesn’t no how to use her bench and I noticed 3 players leaving crying the coach is supposed to bring them she shows favorites to players that play on her softball team and doesn’t even give other players a chance how to you think these kids feel tonight I heard you tell a player she wasn’t fast enough. That’s not what it’s about use your bench or you will over work your favorites me and other parents are very disappointed you had no game plan and shot to many 3 no defense and just very frustrating bring your girls confidence up not down like you did tonight these girls look up to you it’s a TEAM SPORT BUT YOU SHOWED FAVORITES AND THATS WRONG AND UNPROFESSIONAL ALOT OF GIRLS I SAW IN PARKING LOT CRYIN VERY CONCERNED PARENTS

I cannot say enough good things about Matthews. I never dreamed a public school with over 500 students could feel like a home to me and my child and welcome us with open arms and understanding hearts. The staff is truly invested in what is best for each child and makes real, genuine connections with each them. I’d live in a cardboard box before sending my kids anywhere else.

The teachers seem great! My daughter seems to like most of them just fine. She has all A's so they are doing something right! The school is nice and clean. The Principal is a joke though. ALL he cares about is attendance. Your kid can have a 4.0, be part of clubs, band, absolutely NO behavior issues what so ever and no tardies, but they aren't allowed to participate in "Eagle Leader" field trips because they got sick and it made their attendance low. However, a kid who has behavior issues on the regular, all C's and up to 7 tardies can go, as long as they have good attendance. They encourage teachers and students alike to come to school at all costs, even if they are sick, contagious and going toing to spread sickness. After Covid, this seems insane to me. While I would say I recommend this school based on the teachers, I most certainly would not recommend this school based on the administration that runs it.
