The staff at this school are not equipped to assist in early child development and it's frightening they're the ones helping to mold our children.

Graduated as part of the class of 2024, and I just would like to say that this school district is absolutely abhorrent; the staff treat the students like they are nothing more than garbage on the side of the road that nobody wants to clean up. The buildings are filthy, and it’s no wonder why students always get sick. Discipline is practically unheard of unless you were sticking up for yourself, and in those cases you are the one who is punished which I believe is absurd. I have watched students get yelled at for things that they can’t control, and have watched so many kids leave and go to different schools just so they could finish out their education with some sanity still intact. The only thing that seems to matter is if you have the “right” last name… If you have any options that differ from the majority, you can’t openly share them unless you want to be disciplined. Favoritism is so prominent amongst the higher-ups that if you aren’t one of the favorites, you can bet your bottom dollar that you won’t last long. Absolutely nothing is taken seriously; if you are being harassed, threatened, etc, they sweep it under the rug. I believe the main issues are the superintendent and the people on the board of education; the only way I can see any of this changing is if all of them are removed and people who actually care for the wellbeing of students are brought on. If you have a choice, please send your children to any other school district besides this one!
