Ctap ..southern high school is a joke . Turning to the counselor for help is like trying to claw your way out of a metal wall. The principal is impossible to talk to and the teachers curse at the students. The dress code is ridiculous. They have to stand and spin for the teacher every morning before they even say the pledge. Which to me is a bit of sexual harassment. The dress code reads fine. It’s the way they enforce it and how they treat the children that I disapprove of. They treat them like they’re in prison, pushing them against the wall making them put their hands to their sides measuring their fingertips. Nothing about any of that is OK to me. They put them in ASAP and don’t allow them to do their work. They don’t allow them to have a pen or pencil they don’t allow them to read. They just sit there and look forward and if your child has ADHD like mine that is pure torture , and again like prison. I don’t recommend the school if you have an option, I would choose the other option. There is lots of fights. Some of them are racially motivated. Some of them are because of your sexuality, but they are so bad that children end up in the hospital because the staff will not interfere. The kids get in trouble all the time and on while the bad kids rule the school and do whatever they want and never get in trouble it is backwards and frustrating and I’ve been to school boards I have been trying harder than anybody to talk to somebody to help my daughter, but they just set us aside and give us a piece of paper for online school , which is not an option, so they want to push her out of school and dismiss the whole situation so I would not choose the school if you have a choice. It is not a good place for your child. They will have a terrible experience. My child is not the only child who has had a bad experience. I know several and it’s sad because they want to quit , they will probably quit school. Good luck out there.

I am absolutely furious because, at school, the security guard makes fun of me for being Hispanic; every time he sees me, he calls me "Goofy."On top of that, I do my work, and they don't even give me the points.I want to switch schools, but this is the only middle school in the area where I live.

my child has had nothing but horrible experiences since coming here four years ago. There was ONE teacher the entire time that we felt truly cared, the others either did not care or were not around enough to make a difference. Teachers, staff, and the principal did not care to listen to our concerns or take our suggestions into consideration. We were told we were wrong, and that our child was at fault. We tried to switch classes, and get additional support and were told 'no'. Quick to single kids out with no support system or plan in place to help.
