Pleasant Valley Middle School

My three sons attend this school. Two of my boys are doing fantastic with their teachers, but my other son isn't. He has a behavioral problem. We as parents have tried getting the teacher to refer him for an IEP especially since she treats him as if he's nothing but a problem for her. We've done everything in our power at home to help him and he comes home to tell us a teacher calls us bad parents. Even after speaking with the superintendent about it there doesn't seem to be much change. I'm afraid to send him to school at this point because the teachers only seem to care about the kids that are easy for them to handle. If your child is having emotional problems or academic problems or special needs. This is not the school you want to send them to.

In my experience, I felt that I was almost targeted when I went there as I was blamed for many things and nobody seemed to just let me be me, if I were sending my kid to a school in the area, this would not be on the list. They also do make up a lot of questionable rules even for the littles things. Lastly I feel that the school really favors girls over boys, when I was at the school, if the girls were being loud in class or saying some really rude things to others, the teachers would let it slide. For boys it was completely different, being that if we were to do one bad thing the teachers would make it a big deal and reslly it made me not want to come back to the school on my last year. Like I said some of the teachers are not the best but there are some that are actually pretty good.

My daughters have had a wonderful experience. This school is supportive and students learn lots!

Parents and teachers are serious educating the students and school produces well taught smart students who are very respectful.
