6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAs a student at this school who has always followed the rules. This school is horrendous. Dr. K had this school running so well but Principal Williams could care less about us students and as he says in every assembly he has with us “our reputation..” it’s all he cares about is the school’s reputation. With the amount of threats our school gets and emergency’s that happen individually with students have a full no cell phone policy is unsafe. I understand the need to focus us on our studies however this is not the way to do it by putting us in danger. We shouldn’t have to individually get little notes or passes on our IEP’s that say we can use our phones as certain times. Bring back the traffic light for the phones where the teacher decided. Not only that, don’t get me started on smart pass. We are only allowed 5 passes a day and 5 minutes to go to the bathroom. 5 minutes is beyond unreasonable especially for the us girls on our periods. A specific amount of minutes we can use too?? Absolutely insane. This school has become a prison. I’m surprised we don’t have escorts to the bathroom or other places either. They should focus more on the broken walls, sinks, ceilings, doors, mirrors, etc. They should also focus more on the roaches and mice. This is a nice school from the outside and on social media but social media only shows you what you want to see. Highly don’t recommend. Had this not been my senior year I would’ve switched out of this school and gone to lake forest. Good luck to my underclassmen and parents don’t send your kids here. I’ve been interrogated numerous times this year already (it’s only been 2 weeks) because I spent longer than 5 minutes in the bathroom and some of the bathrooms get locked or take a minute to get to. This school has become such a prison since Principal Williams came.Student Review8mo ago - Brown (W. Reily) Elementary School
