Kids were new, and they felt welcomed and accepted very quickly making a hard adjustment very easy. They are happy to go to school every day and excited to participate in all the fun activities they host.

The school has absolutely done nothing about bullying the put a stay away agreement against the kids stating that the kids shall not go near each other and if they do they go to the alternative school in this community and time kids do not care the gifted and special education programs are laugh at and spit on by the football kids and cheer kids and all the higher ups in what they say is the schools food chain such as the “popular”kids look down upon everyone they bully them and destroy self esteem and self worth the kids they consider the lower kids started suicidal behavior within the school the “unpopular” kids grow tired and weak so they use drugs and alcohol to fix what the school doesn’t even attempt to help them with the start students are the athletes cuz they can do no wrong to the schools eyes but they are the ones drinking and caping without the schools knowledge I do suggest a better school or even home schooling suicidal behavior rates went way down within Texas due to school from home in no one was being bullied when Covid took its place in the world and kids passed more classes self worth was high and the kids were able to not have to worry about fighting to be apart of the schools good graces the principals have no problem talking down on students and releasing the kids information to other students

Bruce Junior High has been fantastic and we love it! My son has gained so much academically and socially. Not a better junior high anywhere around.
