3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIf I could put a 0 for safety, I would erwin sucks and is not a safe learning environment what’s so ever, from discrimination to bullying and harassment they have it all. Even the administration are some bullies and are extremely unprofessional. It’s not a safe place for people of color, not a safe place for the lgbtq or any marginalized community whatsoever, unless your a white straight man don’t go here it sucks and you will be bullied if your not “normal” even the administration will pick favorites based on appearance and gender aswell as race. I currently go here and everyday is hard in general, school should be a safe place for students and Erwin fails to provide that.Student Review8mo ago - Clyde A Erwin Middle School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI love this school! I've recently changed from a different school district in BCS to this school district, and it's made me feel great. The one thing that bothers me is how other students in my (7th grade) classes don't really even bother to even talk to me, the "new student". I'm not the best at starting a conversation or socializing, but I'd at least like to feel seen and have students come up to me, that's how I make friends. There are students who I'd LOVE to talk to during lunch, but I'm always too shy to speak to them. It makes me feel really sad.Student Review4mo ago - Leicester Elementary

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school my son has been at 2 years. It’s been a bumpy road to say the least. Last year I took my son out for home schooling and the only reason I let him go back this year was bc he wanted to be with his friend. My son has told me that one of his teachers have told him what he can say or not say like OMG he can’t say unless he’s talking to god? Respectfully she don’t know our religion or if that was ok to say to my son. Secondly the art teacher told my son his art work looked like crap and added to his art. His learning has went from improvement to dropping. The school don’t like kids missing days but also don’t want them there if they’re sick but threaten to take you to court. Make it make sense?Parent Review7mo ago - Eblen Intermediate School
