7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMultiple instances of violence and bullying on the playground. The staff does not pay attention and often talks about students in the breakroom and how terrible they are. Parents have requested action and that has been ignored by the administration.Working at this school, Ive seen the administration render the support staff useless as they refuse to allow them to handle the students. The two principals spend 90% of their days in the hallway watching two students. I was slapped and called expletives by students and the administration did nothing. The child received no consequences.The administration educated the students about their lockdown policy stating that it will be in use when the students lives are in danger. This same policy is used multiple times every week when students enter the school with rocks, smashing windows and threatening students. Again these students receive no consequences and are allowed to throw objects at windows of classrooms unhindered.This school is more focused on politics and political correctness than teaching kids they deserve to be safe, they don't deserve to be hit, terrorized or bullied.Imagine being a kid and hearing a lockdown procedure you were told was only for life threatening situations enacted and rocks breaking your windows all the while the student causing this situation receiving no punishment.There are far better options than public schools. Homeschooling coops and private schools. Our school system is lost to politics and administrators are simply more politicians. Its time to move on from this broken system.Parent Review5y ago - Harvest Intermediate School
