students experience with Eisenhower Middle School has been disappointing, particularly in terms of the overall environment and how certain situations are handled by the staff members properly. The school does not foster a consistently positive or safe atmosphere for students, and this was especially clear during a recent altercation on campus.Rather than stepping in promptly and constructively, several staff members appeared unprepared or unwilling to manage the situation effectively. This lack of proper intervention not only escalated tensions but also highlighted a concerning absence of clear protocols or leadership during critical moments.It’s important for any educational institution to prioritize the safety and well-being of its students. Unfortunately, in this instance, Eisenhower Middle School fell short. I hope the administration takes these issues seriously and implements better training and support for their staff moving forward.

As a former student, I feel that Washington has made attempts to work with families to support their students, but they haven’t achieved this goal. I feel that when I started high school, there was a clear emphasis on funding for sports over quality materials. Books were torn, worn, and old. This, to me, is reasonable with the rise in technology. I feel that access to that technology, however, is held back by lack in funds and student engagement opportunities. It was not unreasonable to hear about fights in the school, in fact, it is a major issue within the school with very little solutions. Students would simply be suspended, come back, and repeat the process. I feel that the best part of the entire school is the teachers, as a good amount of them provide emotional support, college advice, and an all-around good atmosphere for students. There are gems amongst the administration core, but overall, I wish that there would be more done to assist student engagement outside of just sports and clubs. I also feel that the JROTC program at the school has a strong connection with those involved, seeking to offer whatever support they can to students. This may be in military service or college preparation. Overall, I think if you have the option to send your child to Sumner, do so, but Washington is one of the better secondary options.

This school by far is the worst school I have ever dealt with no communication and no effort to try the teachers don't even try either I wish I lived in different district.
