John I. Leonard High School

As an ex-student of Forest Hill Elementary, I have been there for K-5. Most teachers are rude and yell every day. Teachers talked badly about students and obviously had favourites. Bullying isn't taken care of properly at this school and most dont care about ur mental health. Once had a panic attack and I got sent to class as we were preparing for the FSA. They dont care and dont even teach properly. All we learn is how to prepare for the FSA. The nurse doesn't do anything and won't even send you home most time. All she will give you is water or a dirty icepack. Only a few teachers are kind. I only experienced 1 good teacher. The teachers dont take anything seriously and bullying at this school needs to be fixed. The bathroom policy needed to be fixed here as well. Some teachers only let you use the bathroom in the office not even if you have a bathroom right across the hall. The teachers and staff members dont take anything seriously. This school is overall not great but if you meet the right people and hopefully have a good teacher you'll enjoy this school. This is how my overall experience was but I loved this school dearly it is very pretty and they really do take care of the outdoors.

Who knows where I can start with this school . Let’s start off with the principle who’s beyond disgustingly disrespectful and picks and chooses with the school staff and students ! A day before school ended she suspended my child from aftercare due to him wanting to ask aftercare Director, if he can put his belongings inside her office, then she claims he was disrespectful because he would not talk back to her. She also claims he skipped the line by him poking his head out, trying to see what was for snacks when I addressed her with everything she stated I don’t even live in the district, so I can get my kids and leave the school mind you my address is in the district. She mentioned an address that wasn’t noted in any school Paperwork which alerted me that maybe she had me followed to that address because how else would she know if it ? Meanwhile, there’s a handful of students that are not part of the district but since gets along with the parents she allows it. She claims my child isn’t on spectrum because he was evaluated by a staff member. Meanwhile I have doctors Diagnosis for him and have provided them with it . The lack of Communication between staff in regards to student plans (IEP 504)is beyond bad . They inform me that they would be a therapist for my son in school, which took them a month before school and to get him one . As well the principal treats certain staff beyond rude and makes disrespectful comments about them .She speaks unkindly about my son and myself to other staff members! She has made comments about the families that attend the school and their nationality. As well the school has had students get lost or walked off of school . She should not be a principal of that school ! I know much more because I use to be a substitute teacher.

Totalmente los maestros no son para nada éticos ni profesionales y la directora una simple arcagueta y manipuladora solo tapa las fallas de los maestros

Porq mi hijo sufre de asma y y tose a veces y ella no queria q lo hiciera dentro del aula fui a una reunion y me dijo q el tenia q pedir permiso cada vez iva a toser!!! entonces nose donde esta la mentalidad de estos maeatros hoy fui a eecoger la computadora q estan prestando para q los niños estudien en las casa y ayer estuve en la escuela y inscribi al nino porq ayer era uno de los dias para hacerlo y me dijeron q fuera hoy a buscarla.ayer habia cola de personas hoy fui y habia cola cuando llegue a mi turno la principal patty lucas me dijo venga el otro lunes usyed no lleno el papel le.dibe si ayer estuve aqui y lo llene aqui y lo entregue y la.persona q lo recibio estaba al lado deella parada mirandonos a mi y a mis hijos y ella dijo no eso no es asi no lo lleno y yo doje si ella dijo señora retirese y la q recibio el papel el dia anterior me decia nevesitamos atender otra persona marchese y me señalaba la puerta.

Amazing school. I had my first child enrolled and getting ready to enroll my second child. As one parent mentioned, it is the best you can do for your child.
