Minot Public Schools K-5 Virtual Academy

the bullying is extremely bad and teachers dont pay attention

This school is flat out racist! There is no black faculty or staff! My nephews was left out side with no adult present, they left my nephew under the table all day, and also never send my 6 year old nephew back home with his coats and he comes home with a new bruise every other day and they can not account for what happened. They get paid for nothing! If your black avoid this place at all cost. I wish I could leave no stars! I know the board of education is tired of hearing from me about this school negligence

So far I have sent my three oldest kids to Perkett. They have flourished and I am very impressed with the teachers and the education my children have been receiving. Perkett is top notch! Sending my baby there next year and will have four kids at Perkett for one year. Go Panthers!

Academically, it’s solid. The classes can be challenging, and there are some teachers who genuinely care and put in effort. Those teachers make a big difference.That said, there are things that are hard to overlook. The overall culture leans very strongly in one direction, especially on certain social topics, and it’s not subtle. It comes up enough that it can make some students uncomfortable.The condition of the building is mixed. Some areas are clearly maintained well, while others feel neglected. Not every classroom is comfortable, especially when it gets warm, and a lot of the textbooks are worn out and have clearly been used for years.Food is another weak point. The staff is kind, but the quality of the food isn’t great.Sports are something to really think about before enrolling. It doesn’t always feel like decisions are based purely on effort or ability. Being a private school, money plays a role in how things operate, and that can carry over into athletics. If your family isn’t contributing beyond tuition, it can feel like you’re at a disadvantage when it comes to playing time and opportunities. There are some strong teachers and decent academics, but there are also enough issues that it won’t be the right fit for everyone.
