South Johnston High

In our first few weeks of school there was a huge confusion with what teachers were assigned to what classroom. That was figured out then we were notified that we can request teacher credentials to only find out most are barely qualified or still working on earning their degree? So that means students this year are not being taught by teachers with full degrees. We also learned Benson Middle School is a NC restart school which means they need to have a 3rd party supervise the teachers due to under-performing for multiple years. Our children have come home to tell us about fights that happen often in the school between students and racial comments that seem to flow freely, this could also be due to the Benson area culture. The few sports events that we attended it was clear the visiting teams laughed at the equipment, facilities and overall atmosphere that Benson Middle School has. This is a shame that the administration of this school has no dignity or pride for the school they represent.
