3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school has some highlights but falls short when it comes to teachers that don't care about you. The school does suffer from bullying problems but I've never experienced. They worry about phones which is a positive but that is the only thing that the principles care about and ignore the other BIGGER problems. Would not recommend but there is worse schoolsStudent Review3mo ago - Lawrence Jr High School

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAfter several attempts to view the curriculum from K-12 communicating directly to the staff, administration, school board and the Department of Education Office in Augusta, one year later a curriculum was provided by the Superintendent for our review. The curriculum provided was incomplete and out dated. After becoming a School Board member 2014 both School Board Policies and Curriculum are now available online. There are 13 School Board members that make up the School Board yet three School Board members and the Superintendent meet each week and discuss business without involving the other members of the School Board and meet without public notice or agenda. The School Board has not followed Policy ADA which requires them to set annual goals in cooperation with the staff, administration and citizens of the community. Setting annual goals per policy ADA have not been complied with for many years. The School Board as a body has publicly stated they are not required to hear public comments or concerns. When suggesting to have goals established and a schedule set to meet those goals and review progress, the School Board refused to adopt this basic practice of success.Parent Review11y ago - Benton Elementary School
