Here are my intense feelings about Guyer High School. I have two grandchildren that attend Guyer. I am very involved in their lives. Here is what has transpired in the last 12 months of school: They changed the bus route. My grandchildren have two parents that work. I refuse to let these kids walk home in this heat and be subjected to child trafficking. Next, my grandson was in the bathroom doing his business and a girl walked in to use the restroom. The school did nothing to address this. This is 100% unacceptable as I refuse to agree that transgender bathrooms are acceptable. A girl told my granddaughter to go kill herself and the school ignored it because they said the girl had mental issues. Once of her teachers was on her cell phone and she needed help on a math problem and the teacher told her to "figure it out" Why the heck am I paying $12,000 a year on taxes in Denton County if we do not have teachers. Then the camel that broke everything was when they did not offer 504 to my granddaughter that has chronic migraines, a letter from the neurologist and instead kicked her and her brother (that is in band and in band camp and practice every single day) out of the school for her absences due to a chronic illness. They are trying to make them go to a school three times farther away and are punishing her for her illness. This is it. I will scream from the rooftops to protect their rights. Who the heck is watching out for our kids with disabilities? You want to talk discrimination; this is discrimination and the fact that the school allows our non-trans mentally stable kids to be embarrassed by the wrong gender is the bathrooms is inexcusable. Parents......it's your job to protect your children. I fought for my kids when the school was out of line, and they are here for sure. I am proud of my son he is fighting back against the wokeness going on here and the punishment they now throwing at them for my granddaughters' absences that are not her fault.

Sucked, am past student. I literally got death threats and they didn't care.

Teachers are great. Students are great. But there is a noticeable drop in satisfaction, and student’s perception of safety and being free from harassing and threatening behavior by other students. My child has been physical hurt multiple times by another student, and the reaction is to simply “evacuate” the entire class to a new room each time rather than remove the student. The disruption this causes to learning environment for the 15+ other students in the class is troublesome. My student indicates they must leave their class 3-4 times a week, for upwards of 10-20 minutes at a time. My child has told me they don’t always feel safe at school. I’ve never heard such profanities from students so young, either. Multiple times during drop-off I’ve heard a student dropping the f-bomb to fellow students walking in. It is very apparent that we have a new (and substantially worse) principal than we’ve previously had. These issues only started taking place when we got a new principal and assistant principal. They’re the only noticeable difference between last year’s environment and the one this year given almost everyone else is the same.Despite being against it, we are seriously considering private school if Adkins doesn’t turn it around and/or the district finally starts responding to parent complaints and changes the leadership of this once great school.
