Block Institute School

am a parent of a child at this school, and I am very concerned about student safety and the overall environment.There are multiple serious issues:•The principal, Mr. King, does not appear to maintain proper supervision or a safe, respectful school climate.•Students have been given food and drinks that appear spoiled, which is a health risk.•Some security staff speak disrespectfully to students. I have witnessed security guards speaking harshly to children and calling them inappropriate names.•Certain staff members appear to target or intimidate students who are quiet or unable to defend themselves.•Bullying among students, including cursing and aggressive behavior, is ongoing and does not seem to be handled effectively.•I am deeply concerned about reports of inappropriate adult behavior toward students when other adults are not present. Schools must have strict supervision and professional boundaries at all times.•Parents are not allowed to be with their children inside the school, which makes it harder to know what is happening and raises further safety concerns.Overall, this school does not feel like a safe or supportive environment for children. These concerns deserve immediate investigation to protect students.

It's a great school, and my kids really like it. Friendly and professional teachers.

This is the worst school I’ve ever been to

The biggest disadvantage of this school is that homework is OPTIONAL- which is a big setback in learning. Also students almost don’t bring anything home no paperwork, no notebooks! And no tests!! So if a child is failing on tests, you can’t really help them to improve! Some teachers are just careless about the students success
