6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI think this schools approach to homework is shockingly lenient. I believe they should have a more stable approach to it, however it tends to be optional? Which, given the option, you would say most kids would prefer not to do it, and their grades to lessen as a result. Majority of the teachers there that I have had an encounter with had been incredibly nice and respectful and helped my child through it. The character aspect however I find to be split, as most of the kids there seemed to be really crude to one another and really disrespectful. In some cases though, there were some good individuals. Bullying is handled very seriously by the principals at this school and that is something I will forever respect this school for.Parent Review4y ago - Meigs Primary School
