There is little to no parent updates or involvement. No idea what your kid is learning or how they are learning it is impossible to help with homework, WHICH THEY HAVE EVERY WEEKDAY! 5th grade teachers do not update parents in any way shape or form. Then you get a report card and finally have an update but then it is too late to address the issue. The 5th grade teachers also do not handle discipline, bullying, or discrimination well. Parents have to keep emailing/texting to get results. Punishment is running laps. Gym teacher is awful not willing to listen and sympathize with some without an athletic body or abilities. The school does not keep the kids safe from COVID. They do not sanitize desks or cafeteria before new students come in to use them. The school is very poor with leaking roofs, broken bathroom doors, and broken air conditioners. We actually got a recording from the principal saying the broken AC is because taxpayers didn't vote for money to go to the school. There is always a "not our fault" attitude when so.many things are within their control! You also get so many public announcements calling your phone from the county and it is usually nothing to do with Jamestown or your child. The school itself is old and needs to be updated. Having to put kids in trailers is rediculous. Do not send your child here unless you want no updates and don't care how your kids is doing. I have overheard teachers talking about other parents, just as the other post stated. There is also someone who smokes pot in the driveline. Rediculous!

Overall above average. I am a former student and current lunch buddy. The students seem happy and there is a wide spectrum of course offerings available for students at all levels. I encourage local parents to be involved and proactive in their children's education. This improves classroom discipline, respect, and peer behavior tremendously!

Great school and dedicated staff and organized structure.
