Poor. Give your children a bright future and send them to a private school like Nolan that will encourage learning and giving them the tools they need to succeed in life. Or, transfer them to a better FWISD school such as Paschal or Arlington Heights.

I moved to the Fort Worth area last year from an excellent school district. I was really concerned about the school system here. The schools in this area had poor ratings on every site I visited; not to mentions all the negative comments left on message boards from former teachers and students. The negativity vastly out weighted the positive. I was very concerned to say the least. Atwood wasn't the poorest rated school however, it was near the bottom. There are pros and cons to every school. I know my kids are smart and I just figured I'd have to be on them even more to stay at the level I know they can achieve. Which can be challenging for a single parent of two and a with full time job and various other responsibilities , that being said this school isn't as bad as I thought or as some commenters portrayed. The staff at Atwood is very good they care about the students an do the best they can to provide a sound education for all the students that attend. I've always believed learning starts at home and it makes the jobs of the teacher easier and only benefits your childs success when you participate in their development. Not every parent believes this and it shows through their childs progression. My experience with the teachers have been outstanding.Some of the staff should exercise more patience when dealing with some misbehaving kids. I've witness some staff yelling or losing their cool to the point they humiliate or belittle a kid to scare them straight. In ways I would not want someone talking my kids. My experience with the main office personnel has been 75% positive. This is why I can't give all 5 stars. Overall its a good school my kids are doing good with the potential to do better. The staff seems to be predominantly black/ african american women which gives my girls positive role models to look up to that looks like them and can relate to their struggle. Having a black panther as a mascot is DOPE. And my kids look forward to going to school everyday. They participate in after school programs and love interacting with all the teachers they see everyday. Good Job!! Atwood MacDonald
