this school needs to stop giving kids advice with their problems and actually solve them. these teachers will not do anything, the special needs kids get yelled at constantly. i think that's crossing the line. this school needs to be taken down or needs a new princable. these counsolers will tell you not to run crying to someone. its stupid.

everyday you walk in and repeat the same things as the day before, nothing ever changes. first thing i will start with is the admin, the admin of this school is terrible the attitude is not to help students who are in need or students in constant trouble , its to punish them, detentions are 3 hours long and are scheduled on Wednesday or Saturday messing with work or family schedules. the admin also abuses its power usually threatening students with some sort of punishment, on many occasions i witnessed students being insulted or disrespected by admin staff only for the student to call it out and be punished. second thing is the teachers, most of them act as if they work there not to teach but because they were forced to, many of them do not care to help students who need it, they seem to not be able to ready students for college, i am a senior this year and so far i haven't even heard a teacher mention college or college readiness. teachers have unrealistic expectations of students, assigning major projects that are due within days of being announced, in general they do not care for students. finally the students, many students here struggle to learn anything, as did i. students act as if they are at school to be around friends not to learn, many of us skip classes or school all together due to lack of motivation. We have lost hope in this school to be a viable learning place and for staff to be helpful. i personally have many issues with this schools and do not see it as a school, but more like a correctional center where learning is not a priority.

Grindstone Elementary school is one of the best schools that my daughter has been to, the teachers are great and the students are very polite, the school is very organized.
