Southeast Middle School

They have targeted my child as a problem child when she’s brand new to the school and is being bullied. She sticks up for herself and others and is still singled out. She’s was in 2nd grade and finished her last 3 months there and was crying before school everyday. Her teacher was rude to her and does not handle problems well. One of the faculty members hit my vehicle multiple times because my daughter was wearing shorts a smidge too short for dress down day, i simple phone call to get new clothes would have sufficed.

Very helpful teachers, they go out of there way to help there students

My child attended this school for 3 years. It's been a D rated school the whole time. Nothing has improved. There are no activities to motivate the students. No field trips. The so called field day was terrible. Communication is terrible. I send emails asking questions about my child's progress and there are no responses. There's no PTO. The teachers don't even seem to be motivated. For teacher appreciation week, I sent something for each of my child's teacher. My child was the only child in her class to give them something. One of the days she had given a candy jar to the principal. She opened the jar, took out the candy that she wanted and gave it back to my child. I thought that was so disgusting and unappreciative of her. If my child had to attend another year there, I would take advantage of the School Choice and move her somewhere else. I just don't understand why nothing is done to improve this school. I realize it takes more than the teachers. Parents have to be involved as well. This school and others like it are failing our students.

I personally have seen nothing but kindness and willingness to help since my child has started attending Wedgewood. I wish there was more support for the teachers as I know this is an ESL learning sight. Everyone is doing their best to make it a great learning experience for ALL students, and I can appreciate that. The school has showed so much improvement academically. As far as I can tell as long as they continue in this direction they'll be one of the higher rated schools in EBR.

This is a wonderful inclusive and diverse school. We have loved our time at STM.
