Deeply disappointed and concernedAs a parent, I am heartbroken and outraged by the way my daughter has been treated at Nowlin Middle School. From the start of the school year, she has faced persistent bullying — not just from students, but also dismissive and unfair behavior from some members of the

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageJudgemental a little racist to say the least. All they seem to care about is attendance as if they get a bonus which is true... Black History month is a joke. How can a person of a different race teach my child about her. What a joke. Most of what they teach you are lies, except English and math. My child has learned nothing about her history, Nicola Tesla etc. So much more I can say .. But I will end it there you get the jest.....Parent Review3y ago - Santa Fe Trail Elementary School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am a former student now in middle school, and I adore this school. My older brother also attended. The educators and peers were all wonderful, and the principal made me feel secure and was always happy to chat with students and staff. The music, art, and instruction were all excellent. If I don't relocate when I'm older, I'll absolutely send my children here. I can't wait to see my old educators again; they were all wonderful and helped me develop into the person I am today.- Ava ArdonParent Review4y ago - Three Trails Elementary School
