Brighton School

Not a good school. Principal is never available, no administrators come to IEP meetings and when they do, they never stay. They’ll be on their laptops the whole time and then always have to leave. Only a few teachers here seem to care more about the students than joking around with each other in the hallways or just talking to each other. My daughter has seen the special needs kids running around the building and coming into classrooms more times than she can count. Worse, sometimes they’re running straight out of the building and into the parking lot.

The leadership under Dr. Joy Watson has improved this school so much! Her and her staff truly care about their students and pushing them to achieve their best.

Not good for a disabled child. My 6-7 year old son got pushed down so hard by an older kid that his front tooth was knocked out and they didn't even write an incident report, just sent the bloody tooth home wrapped in a kleenex in his front backpack pocket. He was also regularly singled out because of his disability, he was not permitted to attend before or aftercare at the school, and the teached called every single day for like 3 months asking us to pick him up early because he was sick when he wasn't sick. I worried for my son's safety while he was here.

I am an ex middle school student of Parkview Baptist School. Students are cookie cutter images of each other. Nearly no diversity or creativity. Girlhood was extremely hard here with judgmental students and even teachers.

Something to note when deciding weather to send your child to St. George is that no one cares about your. My daughter attended the school for 8 years and was severely bullied in middle school. The school did nothing about it. The large class size is also a big issue because teachers can’t have a one on one relationship with their students. Teachers at this school praise bad children who do one good thing but overlook the children who do good every day. If your child is not rich and popular then he or she will not fit in and will be overlooked. The whole school and parental community fostered this clique based community and it is not okay. Schools should respect and love the mental well being of all children of just the popular ones. I am deeply hurt that my child had to suffer through middle school there.
