Francis R Scobee Middle School

My son did the Headstart’s program here but the overall experience with the school horrible. I have never once seen the principal wait I seen her once coming out her car she walked in disappeared never seen her again when you walk through the halls all the teachers are gossiping yelling at a kid and just look miserable . I don’t understand the need for background check if Headstart parents can’t go back there when it’s urgent !! They put so much rules on Headstart parents like not parking in the front but there own parents do it . Staff needs to be more approachable

So far, the teachers and staff seem to be really engaged. They have a lot of fun events, but seem to be a little short staffed. I wish more folks wanted to be teachers. In any case, our daughter loves her class and her teacher. Communication is great.

School was okay here! 3rd and 4th grade were overall pleasant and I loved my teachers! Second year here felt chaotic at times though.Afterschool we had Learning Tree with this man named Jonathan. It was a long time ago but during what was supposed to be recess he sometimes made us march in lines for whatever it was that he was mad at us about and told us we had no common sense. He was really hard to be around sometimes but otherwise LT was fun. The pregnant lady was super fun and nice though! I loved my time there with her.

I enjoyed all of my early childhood at this school and believe I wouldnt be where I am without the support of my old admin and teachers.

I personally love Ott elementary and have not heard anything bad about this school. We have lived here for 4 years and all 2 of our children have attended Ott Elementary. My daughter has an IEP which they helped her tremendously! My son is going into second grade and he loves school here. Teachers are hard working and care about their students. Also with all the dangers of school shootings Ott is one of the few schools that have installed bullet proof glass lobby and you cannot enter without them buzzing you in. Plus they really try to get parents involved in activities which is great for your kids!

My son is constantly bullied and it is constantly being reported but nothing is ever done. Kids wander around all the time. The students spend most days watching movies like goosebumps and the teacher has trouble teaching. The students talk over the teacher Anderson lesson plans are never made in advance. They’ve been learning the same thing for over a week now. The principal is rude and pretentious and I can’t wait until my child leaves.
