Schools send out fees through their bookkeeping department which has nothing to do with a student's performance in a classroom. I check my student’s grades about once a week since academic success is a priority in our household. They clearly understand that they are solely responsible for the grades they earn which is based on their effort. They know their grades are a reflection of how hard they work and that their only job is to learn so they would have to answer to me if anything was less than expected.

Once this school got their new principle in 2025 Ms. Vogler…..the school went down hill. So many people are pulling their kids from the school and if your child is special needs they don’t work with you on getting them the help they truly need.

My children both attended Jessie Clark MS. Both of them had good experiences there. My daughter had an incident with a male student there that went beyond school. The counselors, teachers, principal, staff and officers at the school took the situation very seriously and made sure my daughter was safe and that our family felt safe and that will always be appreciated. I do recall that both of my children had a lot of stress their 7th grade years there due to the amount of homework that was given, but I do feel like it prepared them for high school.
