3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageJust moved to town I wish my kids never attended here worst ever my kids never experience so much pointless drama that the staff act like they can’t control the staff in the office gave me a hard time about my daughter’s shot records when they could’ve easily called previous school to get them me and the old school had to do the footwork. It’s just ridiculous.Parent Review9mo ago - Earl Wooster High School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe new Admin have bought in a (First 10 and last 10 extra assignment) for every class. On top of your normal class work and assignments. If you are representing your School for a Sport and miss this your grade immediately drops by 10 percent. No one knows why they are doing it. It lowers students GPA. And no study hall to make it up because they don't offer that.A friend of my Students grades dropped horribly because of this and failed numerous classes. My Student nearly failed also. Maybe to stop kids from skipping class but it punishes everyone. There is huge room for error and students grades dropping by huge percentages. They also lock bathrooms at the School. Which makes it hard for children to access bathrooms which is a basic human rights need. They have Awesome Sports Coaches and Teachers. And then there are the gangster kids. Unfortunately they are there. There were times when I felt unsafe. There are normal kids and IB kids also who are great.Parent Review1y ago - Libby C Booth Elementary School
