Teachers don't make an effort to communicate with parents. The grading system is a disaster. Sometimes homework and assignments are not graded. Some teachers don't grade assignments and exams until the end of the marking period, therefore most parents don't know what's going on until it's too late. The principal doesn't have much influence on the teachers.

A son formerly graduated from palmetto Senior and it was the best experience my daughter is now entering palmetto Senior and we are super excited
