The teaching staff has a handful of very caring teachers for them I am grateful. Other than that no one answers phone calls you will always go to a voicemail and after three years of this school I don’t think I have received more than one return call from a voicemail. Emails are sometimes returned. Guidance refuses to see children they are turned away immediately no matter the concern brought to them, I’ve been ignored when emailing directly to assigned guidance counselors about schedule, making time to see my child and no response I’ve been lucky that I have an email I’ve kept from one person I can sometimes get help from in that department. The principal has taken racial issues that were sensitive and when asked to just discuss with the teacher as not to upset my child or make things uncomfortable for her. He instead forwarded my email and without warning as well received a mid day phone call that the school or teacher was prepared to call for while I was moving heavy equipment. Again the teacher was nice respectful and we both were able to to see some things from both of our own perspectives. Now my child is grieving the loss of her grandfather. We are a military family we live here with only our immediate household. The school has a counseling program that states it covers a vast range of things and is paid for by the DOD department of defense. The school has harassed and accused my daughter about says she has been late during this time and with a note she was brought down to the office and blamed for there actions of not having her in the system. She has no way to access the school without them letting her in scanning her card and giving her a pass. The principal offered no condolences, no referral to the program or ask if our daughter needed anything. The month prior felt to share a family loss and I’m sure felt supported but that is how he treats the community. Good afternoon,When I receive an email about a situation in the class, I always forward the email to the teacher and the evaluating administrator. The teacher is the one who is in the class with the students. The teacher touched base with me after he spoke with you. No, I do not have a bias against Native Americans.As far as the latest issue, I will get with our administrator, who oversees attendance and or attendance secretary, tomorrow, and someone will give you a call. ThanksCold, uncaring and hyped up as a great principal but helps only who he wants, or what’s good for a photo.

The principles have been treating people different by race. I've been given harsh punishments for very small things. Whereas when people of the other race do the same thing they get 15+ warnings. Once me and another student were playing around and I took an empty milk carton and flipped it over his jacket. Even though it was empty and the student didn't complain they gave me a referral for "Harassing Another Student" when I asked the assistant principle to show the camera footage to my mom he claimed "The Cameras Aren't Working At The Moment" and they got away with this and all of their other lies. I don't recommend this school because it is literally terrible with everything except lunch, breakfast, gym, and sports. If you send your child to this school you will start to see your child get into more trouble and his/her attitude will slowly change for the worse.
