Whitesides School

Horrible school. They don’t care about bullying and don’t try to fix anything except make it worse and in fact the staff actually bullies too. The way I was treated many years ago at this school was not the best at all far from it and now my sister is going through it and is getting it 20x worse and the school is VERY aware yet they just don’t care. Telling one student they can’t have their own out before/after school when they’ve already been told by higher ups they can have their phone out during that time and every other student that has a phone has theirs out, that isn’t fair in the slightest nor okay. Also taking a student after school and not notifying parents is not okay at all you don’t know if theirs someone waiting on that child. Ridiculous. Just about entire staff needs to be changed cause absolutely nothing is okay with that school they simply couldn’t care about what’s going on at all.

This school WAS decent from 2023-early 2025. New administration has taken over and they are disorganized, unfair, and do not communicate. Many staff are fed up. Things have gone astray and kids are not important here.

Teachers need more training. School front office are super nice.

Had all 5 of our children go to Morgan, Great school!

A lot of people come to register here and are greeted with the nastiest front desk that it just ends up turning people off. I was so close to turning away (i can name 2 neighbors that did) because 4/5 encounters with the front office are not good. Recess duties sit around on their cell phones and tell kids to handle fights and scrapes on their own. We’ve been lucky enough to have really amazing teachers I’m so thankful to them. However when a child needs support or to lay down or call their parents, same problem: front desk will just send them back. They are lazy and rude. When THEY make a mistake, they will make you feel like an idiot for not checking their website every day or checking 20 different emails from the district as they do rather than just simply apologizing. For example, telling everyone to show up and then as people arrive suddenly explain really the event is two days later and as parents we should've known and should be checking the website and dozens of emails the district sends daily to actually know what’s going on and not trust the text messages we received. It doesn’t have to be that deep but it’s the way they treat people so inferior when really they should be the ones that are embarrassed. They have an no respect for people who work and could care less if they give you the runaround like when my daughter didn’t have a teacher on the first day of school and they didn’t just want to be honest about it a few years ago. They forget we pay their bills when we pay our taxes yet they’re always BEGGING SHAMELESSLY for money. Typical public school stuff sadly. In the end, the inconveniences of dealing with them sometimes is definitely worth the opportunity my kids gain from going here. I really like the last principal for the last few years I feel like he’s really supportive and very involved. Also says a lot when you have to turn off Google comments lol embarrassing for you.
