My sons teacher told him that a C grade is considered a failure! Instead of encouraging my son he can do better he's called a failure. My son used to love school and now he believes he's a failure. I chose the worst school to send my children because where we are from a C grade is a passing grade not a failure!

I Went to high school here from 2020 to 2023

I agree with another parent who mentioned that the kids do not seem as though they are being challenged. Supposedly have a Zero Tolerance bullying policy-they don't. The principle picks & chooses who can bully & who can't, & is not an effective example. Many teachers spend class time gossiping in the halls instead of teaching & bring personal problems into the classes to take out on kids. Many also cuss in front of the kids. I don't pay taxes for lazy teachers who don't actually teach, yet expect kids to behave like zombies. Complaining to the principle is ineffective. I was told by several parents of kids that went to the last school the principle was at, that he was the exact same way there. He makes every excuse, and always blames the kids. Several parents have complained to him about a particular child who bullies, and spreads terrible rumors about others-which causes more bullying-and he refuses to take any action, even though I myself have complained for three straight school years. I am sincerely glad that my youngest is the last child I have to send to this school, and wish I would have known what I do now before I bought a house that landed us in this school district. And yes, the school needs more clubs. The football coaches are disorganized, not even courteous enough to give out correct game schedules with locations of games. All in all, it seems that the asylum is being run by the patients.
