7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe school is small in size but growing with students every year. There needs to be more inclusion for neurodivergent children however, there are some teachers that seem well versed in supporting those children. The principal this year did not seem to fit the school.. the one prior was very good, it was easy to see how she positively affected the teachers and students.Parent Review1y ago - Charles P Murray Middle

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI wish I had never moved to the district where my child, who has a learning disability, is constantly criticized for things with out proof and subjected to lies. When you ask for proof, they say they don't have any. They like to blame students of color with out looking at both individuals and handing out the proper punishment to both parties but the principal will make sure to punish the student of color from their freedom, and allow other students to bully them, all while blaming a Black student. My child isn't perfect; his grades are good, but I would never recommend this school to anyone.the school has belittle my child and made them feel like there voice dont matter when there in the right this school definitely took a negative affect on her life I will soon be looking to transfer my child to another school.Parent Review1mo ago - Eugene Ashley High
