Disappointed in Ptarmigan Ridge. State test scores are never sent home, little to no communication from teachers in the higher grade levels- it’s as if they don’t want families to see just how this school is failing their children. There is a lack of discipline from administrators so repeat problematic behaviors are never punished nor corrected. Reward charts are given for those with problematic behaviors and there is never any recognition for students who actually do what is expected of them. Staff kids are treated with privileges, even if they have disruptive behaviors. This school is overcrowded. Students can get away with a lot because resources are stretched thin. You can tell the teachers are burnt out and the school year has only just begun. Kids can’t use the bathrooms during the day because they are unclean and unsanitary. The lunchroom is loud and students don’t have any time to eat. If you have an option to choose a different school, do it. Students fall behind because their entire day is FILLED with disruptive behaviors from others. Admin doesn’t care.
