The school as a whole is great but for my son who is African American the experience has been terrible. His 6th grade year was full of bullying issues and kids making racial slurs that would never get addressed by the school. It even got to the point where teachers began retaliating against him after we complained to the administration about the teachers that wouldn’t report or address the issues my son would report to them. He didn’t want to transfer after his first year, because he’s made some wonderful friends and loves the athletes. But in year two, his 7th grade year, we’re already experiencing some of the same issues from the previous year. I since that there’s a lot of politics going on because I spoken to other parents who have experienced similar issues. This is not the school you want to send your kids to if they’re black! Just not a healthy and equally fair environment.

This school has amazing teachers, staff and students. The school has amazing facilities and continues to push the students academically. There are a lot of benefits living in NWA. You and your family can’t go wrong with the area or the school district.
