Thomas Marks Elementary School

I confided in a guidance counselor about being a domestic abuse victim at the hands of and was actively being stalked and harassed by a fellow student. Concerns regarding my safety were ignored and I was told to just “make it to graduation” even though threats against my physical safety were being made. I was also threatened with suspension for trying to avoid the people actively harassing me. When provided with proof, it was dismissed. The entire guidance staff does not care about the students mental health. They directly stopped me from getting legal justice by discouraging me from sharing my story. They’d rather protect the reputation of the school than protect their students. The only reason I even made it to graduation was the amazing educational staff. The teachers are wonderful people and care a lot more about the students than the administrators. It’s unfortunate that the amazing teachers there are over shadowed by the incompetent and horrendous leadership.
