Terrible administration. No regard for student safety. My child has assaulted and the administration knew and DID NOT TELL ME! I had to eventually confront the administration in person before they would even breath a word about it. Sick.

This is a bad school they do not try to take their time with helping your child, they expect your child to already know everything that their teaching the principle has a nasty attitude towards your kids and teachers everyon.

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding an incident involving my child and the School Resource Officer (SRO). My child was questioned and threatened by the SRO about an issue that occurred outside of school grounds and was not related to any school activity.This matter stemmed from a disagreement between two teenagers — not an altercation, simply an argument — yet it appears that outside connections within the Florence community led to the SRO becoming involved. Given how closely connected families are in our area, it is troubling that personal relationships may have influenced the SRO’s actions.What is most concerning is that no school administrator contacted me before or after this interaction. At no point was I notified that my child was being questioned by law enforcement, nor was I given the opportunity to be present. I only learned of this after making multiple calls and conducting my own research with both the school district and the Florence County Sheriff’s Office to understand what is and is not allowed in these situations.I find it unacceptable that a student could be questioned or threatened by an officer on school grounds — particularly about a non-school matter — without parental notification or administrative oversight.I am requesting a formal review of this incident and clarification on the school’s and district’s policies regarding:SRO involvement in off-campus, non-school-related matters.Parental notification and consent when a student is questioned by an SRO or law enforcement officer at school.Steps the school will take to ensure this does not happen again. I have not received a response yet.
