If your looking for a school for your child to go to do NOT choose this school, they hire substitute teachers who smoke in the classes when they have students & there are many gun threats to this school & many fights here . Overly all i hated this school with my all & i was ALWAYS targeting by one of the assistant principal .

As a parent, my experience with my Wharton high school over the last two years has been extremely disappointing and emotionally exhausting. Despite repeated requests for assistance, meetings, emails, and ongoing concerns regarding academic performance, behavior, and documented disabilities, I have consistently felt unheard and unsupported.My son currently has only a fraction of the credits needed to stay on track academically, yet most communication from the school only occurs after situations have already escalated into disciplinary matters. There appears to be far more focus on punishment than prevention, intervention, or meaningful support.Communication has been one of the biggest issues. Important matters involving attendance, referrals, suspensions, and behavioral concerns are often communicated late—or not at all—until consequences have already been decided. As a parent attempting to work collaboratively with the school, it is incredibly frustrating to constantly feel reactive instead of included in the process early enough to help.I also believe there is a major disconnect in how students with ADHD, Autism, emotional regulation difficulties, and 504 accommodations are being supported in practice. While accommodations may exist on paper, consistency and implementation have been another story entirely.What has been most concerning is watching situations continue to escalate instead of improve. Rather than seeing proactive behavioral support, accountability plans, or academic recovery strategies, many situations have resulted in referrals, suspensions, transportation consequences, and even law enforcement involvement.I understand schools have difficult jobs and limited resources, and I fully believe students must be held accountable for their actions. However, accountability without effective support simply becomes a cycle. Families should not have to fight this hard just to feel informed, included, and supported.My hope is that the district takes a deeper look at how struggling students and overwhelmed families are being supported before more children fall through the cracks.

My granddaughter attends Pizzo Elementary she transferred from another state the over all experience has been great. The administration are always friendly and supportive when and if a situation arrives. My granddaughter has been at Pizzo Elementary for 4 years and has had wonderful teachers all 4 years.Thank yah for all that yah do to keep our children educated and safe.
