Kids are vulgar and don't take their education seriously. Every other word I hear in the hallways are vulgar and inappropriate for a school environment. Cell phones are permitted, and it seems that is all the kids want to do. Even in class I see kids flip out their phones and text while the teacher is lecturing! There is absolutely no teacher-student respect, and when a teacher asks them to hand in their phones, they get defensive and refuse, and the teacher backs away! Some of the teachers are also lousy! They don't demand respect from their students and allow the kids to take control of the class. Thus is why the kids are so unruly. The curriculum is not demanding or challenging, and they are happy if you even graduate, barely passing courses. No academic motivation, no honors or AP courses... I was very disappointed at my first day of school. It is like night and day compared with Thatcher. The principal is nice and has a pleasant personality, but needs to take more control of his staff and students. I hope the school will improve their rules and help motivate their students in the future to make this school a better learning environment for the students to enjoy and flourish.

This school is dirty, the teachers are mean and the kids are rude and I would never send my children here.

Excellent! I'm sorry I had to move him to another school. It's what was best for my son, but that school is amazing!

We are pulling our student out and beginning homeschooling immediately following several issues (bullying/losing student) that have been ignored and some false claims (poor behavior on bus while student wasnt even in Safford) against our student. Public school is public school but Safford Unified needs a revamp; the whole environment seems unhealthy and is very frustrating.
