I heard that the school is ok

I am not sure why there academics scores and testing scores are lower in the state. This school does not support child social emotionally, the children are just numbers to the principal. Poor academics and not supporting the children and there growth or if the child may need extra support the principal will be sure that does not happen, especially if your child is of color. He will stop staff from helping your child, it is easier for him to unlawfully suspend your child then try to help them or even provided services to the family!! He will not support at all!!! My child has now been at another school for 4 weeks and his experience is night and day. I really hope the superintendent of the 191 district is really looking into the data of how this principle is treating and responding our children he should not be working in early childhood education nor with children in general specially elementary. Also I would never approve a teacher posting my child on her social media even with there faces blacked out. Very unsafe especially since she shares the exact school she works at.. very very scary!!! Keep you children safe, Do not send to this school!!!!!

Hey, so this school is kind of a nightmare and i'm not afraid to say it. I'm in 8th grade currently, and no one manages anything there. There's really no punishment for bullies, because the kids who do that just act really nice in front of the teachers so when we tell the teachers; "(insert name here) is bullying me" they don't believe it or they don't do anything in their action. It's honestly really sad. And just this year they changed a lot of the rules which i think is unnecessary. We don't have much freedom anymore. 1) -we cant bring food outside the lunchroom. (people don't finish their food. + no sharing food) 2) -no backpacks. (backpacks are usually cheaper, like the ones you can buy at 5 below, dollar tree, and other cheap places. But binders (especially the ones that are recommenced are pretty pricey. Plus, if this school is worried about weapons and firearms you can literally fit a gun in a binder AND backpack. AND if you have your backpack THEY will actually take it away.)3) -we only have 7 bathroom passes for the whole quarter. (just doesn't make any sense.) 4) no phones during the day not even passing time, plus when we have a ACTUAL LOCK DOWN we have the "phones away rule" even though they're literally an active shooter in the building.. you have to wait 10 minutes but still. ( i have no problem with having no phones out but i think this is too far. ) i can list way more.I've already said it but this school also has a huge bullying problem, last year it was really bad but i'm sure all the fighting will come back this year. There honestly were so many fights last year (and i almost was gonna get jumped by a kid who was chasing me down.) I have been bullied severely here.-I've been started at, threatened, almost punched, had to deal with mental abuse. people have made me so sick of this school. And tons of my friends, other people i don't know, they are just not being heard. I can't believe that this school is like this. You never feel like you belong there. And we are SICK of feeling like this, we feel horrible, we don't wanna stay quiet. I can speak for a lot of people here. I hate this school.thank you, -Student Of NMS.
