Ruth Barker Middle School

I was incredibly disappointed in this school. My child went there from K-2nd and our first two years were great. I don’t know what happened during my child’s 2nd grade year but my child was put in a class with a teacher that had a lot of kids with behavioral issues. My child could not focus because of the other kids and was put at a desk by their self. It was the first year I got a bad note home and I got them weekly. While other kids were jumping on tables, throwing books, threatening to punch kids in the face, threatening to severely harm another 2nd grader and follow them home. A 2nd grader brought a vape to recess. Luckily my child has gotten into a well known school for academics, athletics and well brought up children so we are looking forward to leaving this awful year behind us. Also, I reached out to the principal and vice principal many times and was either ignored (not called back) or told there was nothing they could do to switch his class…before the first quarter was even over. Please take your babies somewhere else. Giving two stars only because our first two years were great there but something changed.
