Took a phone overnight teachers call you names and say don’t snitch teachers also throw thing across the room and they throw trash at kids in the class room l.

My son has ADHD and the teachers can’t handle it. My son isn’t jumping off walls but sometimes has to be redirected. They’re trying to kick him out because of his disability because “he’s receiving “ a lot of support according to them. Asst. principal ms Grover doesn’t EVER care to hear anything. If my son does something the same as another kid my kid gets in trouble. My son was attacked and the teacher couldn’t help my son so my son had to fight the kid off of him, and of course my son got in trouble for defending himself since he was told by the teacher “ I can’t do anything “. This school is a joke. Mrs Wright & I never really seen Eye to eye but NOW I UNDERSTAND HER WAY OF DISCIPLINE. And what her back. She logically would think &figure stuff out. My son was never depressed or had anxiety. But after this school year he was diagnosed with severe depression and severe anxiety. He always tells me he just wants the teachers to be nicer. The only teacher that knew how to do their job is Mrs. Torres! She’s an amazing teacher!! My sons mentalHealth was non existent! Now these people are putting my son through soo much! Finally making the move! They love picking on kids with learning disabilities and shutting them down! Not ok!!

I am a sophomore in the band program at mesa high. I would like to say I enjoy this school but there needs to be some updates. The school board focuses on student athletics, don't get me wrong but there are so many other great programs at this school, for example, our clubs, the performing arts program, our AP classes, our FAFSA program, etc... But here's the thing teachers are great, except the students, but the board does not. I will say that I was not doing ok mentally but we have our awesome social workers, and they will help. This school also helps with getting college credits early WE have the ACE program and many dual enrollment classes. One thing I wish they did is to give the band a senior poster, because other schools do it, all of the sports have senior posters, so why can't we? The seniors put in lots of hard work for what they do. The teachers here are great I just wish the school board would focus on other things than sports. They need to acknowledge some students, not the student body.
