Read what parents are saying about White County High School
The school has roaches (kids post pictures on social media), they have hardly any soap in the dispensers. No stalls in the boys bathroom. Basically no locks on girls stalls in bathroom. I would really like to know where the tax money is going? Some food served to students was out of date. Milk frozen at lunch. There is mold in some of the bathrooms. The educational books are out of date. Students who have a hard time understanding education material just get left behind. (Like they are a problem). Same teacher has multiple students fail class each year and it’s always the students are the problem. No positive criticism is given to the teachers about how to better educate the students( the teachers that have multiple students fail their class year after year : even new student to that class year after year) sometimes they run out of food before all students have had a chance to eat. The school system seems to try and cover things rather than call parents. The superintendent of white county needs to be evaluated!! I believe there is a big issue with bullying and peer pressure. I feel the kids that are easier to deal with get remanded for being in close proximity to the students that are actually causing the issues which they are probably causing issues for attention or cry for help for their living conditions at home and then they come to school and actually try sometimes and get put down because of not being able to comprehend education material the way some of the teachers think they should understand no matter what and yes I am meaning some of the teachers believe if the student can’t learn their way then they are just stupid and will never understand and they are not worth any time or effort. Albert Einstein said “ everybody is a genius but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”

Also I am not writing this because I am sore about the experience, but simply because I do not want others to have the same low budget education I was stuck with, I've finally gotten my life back on track with much hard work and perseverance. But I am still behind and have much catching up to do especially knowing that I will have a difficult time furthering my education due to the fact that I was basically thrown from middle school, straight to college with no real help in between. I simply hope that others will take these words to heart and desire more for your future or your children's future and education.
