Wright Richard R School

Giddeon building conditions for the opening day of school (August 25, 2025) was horrible!!! The school district, administrators, and maintenance staff should be ashamed that they would allow ANYONE to come in that building and expect learning to go on. Live and dead mice throughout the building, fleas and rodents are visible all throughout the classrooms, hallways, and bathrooms. Several classrooms still had the same “trash” that was left behind in May. Student and staff bathrooms are FILTHY and only toilet rolls are replaced. No cleaning at all and the majority of sinks are stopped up! The first 3 days, several students and staff left early due to sickness related to these horrible conditions. How does the district and administrators expect teaching and learning to go on with these conditions!!! They need to relocate these students and staff until a thorough deep deep cleaning is done by a professional cleaning service. Philadelphia School District and Administrators should be embarrassed and ashamed for these poor students, teachers, and staff!!! Will involve news and media next if issued not resolved immediately!!

This is one of the worst un professional School's I have ever seen. School starts early this year and most parent's weren't even notified some parent's including myself found out by other parent's spreading the rumor in the neighborhood.

Hi I do not know much about the school I currently live in the neighborhood and because LP Hills closed down another terrible school my children had to attend Blaine but instead I was blessed to be able to enroll them in another school. from what I hear about school it's not good at all but I think it also reflects on community as well.

The principal seems more interested in the uniforms than whether the students are learning as much as they can absorb. The teachers over all seem like they are trapped in the system but want to teach so much more than the slim curriculum they have been given.

This school has come a long way. I have two children who attend & Iam very happy with the principal Mr.Davis has really made a difference

my experience at this school has been all around great. My son graduate a couple years ago and he is doing very well at a catholic high school. My daughter will be graduating in June from St. Martin...I will definitely miss the school, the teachers, staff and especially Sr. Meaghan.A parent who loves her child's school
