My son is now in the fourth grade at Brunson and in the HAG program. Last year (3rd grade), was a little rough but I believe 3rd grade is generally rough at all schools considering it is a "transition" year. Last year, we had approximately 2-3 hours of homework per night and I had to google most of the math homework because I had no idea how to do it. From what I have heard from other 3rd grade parents, they had to do the same. The math homework for 3rd grade was ridiculous and the amount was WAY too much. This year, we have a wonderful teacher (Mrs. McGee) who is animated, energetic, kind, and goes out of her way to communicate with parents. My son adores her. The homework has lessened tremendously because they do most of their work in class on laptops. The school is run down and in a bad part of town, but that is no reflection on Brunson as a whole. I just wish the HAG program had a better location. Looking at the bigger picture, I would say I have definitely been pleased. It's challenging, hard work, and definitely not easy. But my son is NOT bored and he is around peers who is interested in the same things he is interested in (technology, etc.) versus the sports.

School is inconsistent with their dress code, teachers don’t get held accountable for their actions, teachers are more interested in the students drama than giving the students their education. Receptionist is rude and doesn’t help solve any problems.
