Here's what you need to know!The good:1. Huge school. There is a lot of room to exist within the school. You don't have to worry about accidentally fusing with the walls like I did in my last school.2. The lunch isn't radioactive government waste. Some of the meals are in-house (with a real actual kitchen) and taste decent.3. There are a lot of classes to choose from, including rare finds like automotive technology, welding, 3D printing, and even child development education for those types of people.4. They have like, 8 vending machines!5. They have 2 different Gyms, an indoor track, a weight room, two auxiliary gyms, and a couple of sports fields.The bad (aka the rant):They do this thing called 'Friday school', where instead of coming to school on Friday, you only have to come if you're failing, so you can catch up. But even then, it's only a half day. The problem with this is (brace yourself):1. You're not getting your time's worth in education.2. There is less school time, leading to less funding, leading to fewer teachers, leading to less fun classes, leading to a worse experience.3. Tired (unprepared) parents are using Friday school as a way to babysit their kids.4. Friday is no longer the best day of the week. You would think it would be Thursday, but that's now the day when they announce who's going to Friday school. Now there is no best day5. Even with all the missing school time, the school still puts on unnecessary assemblies, leading to even less education. Like, what are they even doing?!The end.

My three boys have great teachers. Leadership and Teachers are compassionate and supportive. The school has zero tolerance for bullying. My kids love Roberts elementary.
