Very recently, the school has had a variety of issues involving student well-being and the morals of the higher-ups at this school. Two noticeable incidents include when a young girl hit a young man, who in turn hit her at equal value. The man ended up getting punished far more harshly than the young lady who started the scuffle. Another instance would be when a young lady kicked a male student and the lady wasn't even punished while the male student was strictly disciplined. This school has done well in teaching students but has evidently failed in correctly punishing students. It is painfully clear that in the process of making female students feel welcomed and safe, they have made the male students feel targeted and unhappy. A positive thing however would be one of the staff members, Mr. Harrington. He is absolutely outstanding and truly sets the bar for teaching in general. That man is worthy of a memorial and should be treated as such. Anyone who has been lucky enough to meet him would agree, and those who haven't meet him should be pitied. Overall good school but the bias with students obviously needs work.

I believe the atmosphere is mediocre. The kids are often treated as a nuisance. I don't believe they filter whom they allow to volunteer or work noon duties strictly enough. My kids seem stressed by the constant negativity. My children are above average in grades and work very hard at their studies. We've moved around and attended 4 different elementary schools. Homestead is the least on my list. We would change schools, however I don't want to uproot my children again. My youngest that hasn't started yet will not attend Homestead. Not highly impressed. Seems teacher oriented more than student oriented.
