Harrison its a great school. I have seen it progressed for the last 2 yrs. I think still work in progress and its getting there. One thing I would suggest is that after classes are done it should be some kind of police inforcement aroung the school with all those parents that pick up their kids and don't follow the street sign and stops.

As a parent, I’ve had concerns about the overall environment and communication at this school. During a visit, I observed a classroom practice where students were asked to leave their belongings outside the room, which felt disrespectful and not student-centered.Communication from the school has been inconsistent. There have been situations where I felt I was not informed in a timely manner about incidents involving students, and during a meeting with administration, I did not feel fully heard or supported as a parent.Discipline also appears to be inconsistent. In some cases, student behavior does not seem to be addressed in a way that reflects the seriousness of the situation, which can be frustrating for families expecting fairness and accountability.Academically, I’ve noticed a heavy reliance on videos and independent work rather than direct instruction in some classes. This may not meet the needs of all students, especially those who benefit from more hands-on teaching and engagement.There are also concerns about the overall school environment, including student behavior during the school day and the general tone of staff interactions, which can sometimes come across as unapproachable.Additionally, building conditions at times have been less than ideal, including concerns about cleanliness and temperature control.I believe the school has opportunities to improve communication with parents, consistency in discipline, and creating a more supportive and engaging learning environment for students.
