2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school was subject to a 2011 Federal lawsuit due to discriminatory suspension of students. They were suspended, not for behavior problems or fighting or even for academic violations. Some students received suspensions for 50 days simply for having a shirt that wasn't completely tucked in. In one case, the principal spotted a student whose shirt became untucked AS HE WAS TUCKING IT BACK IN, and still suspended him for 50 days. These draconian practices may be ending due to a lawsuit, but should it really take a lawsuit to get a school to focus on important academic issues rather than forcing students not to be able to get an education?Other Review12y ago - Orchard Elementary School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis is the worst school ever. The teachers talk to the kids like they are nothing. They bully the kids and verbally Abuse them. The principal does nothing about it. I have called the school board and nothing still hasn’t been done. My kids got 3 more months. They will never return here I ask for a transfer the school board keep giving me the run around about it.Parent Review2y ago - Cl Scarborough Middle School
