I have experienced nothing but EXCELLENCE. My son just completed his first year (6 grade) and he has grown. I received weekly updates on his performance. I am proud to say he is doing very well. I really felt involved.
Posted by a parent on 8/1/2025This school was a very heavy experience for me, first off it took me months to get help with bullying not to mention students swearing, making jokes about serious topics, and they don’t even bat an eye to care, yes some of the teacher are amazing and outstanding and very helpful, but some teachers a
Posted by a student on 7/8/2025It's not often shared with families outside of the community, but it's a well known fact that students who've completed a full year at Saunders Middle are given a real life unicorn. It's true. Now, the families do have to sign a waiver and are responsible for food and medical, but it's theirs to kee
Posted by a parent on 4/13/2025Saunders Middle School is the worst school by far. I sent my children to this school for 8th grade. The learning environment was inappropriate and suffocating. My children could not learn a single thing being in that school and I will not bring them back or enroll them to this school again. The bull
Posted by a parent on 1/11/2025My daughter is entering her 2nd year at Saunders. The teachers were really supportive and communicated their expectations from the students/parents. My daughter did experience some bullying in the first few months of the school year that affected her emotionally/mentally. My daughter was called the

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis might be the worst pwcs school. THEY DECLINE STUDENTS AP COURSES. I'm a transfer student from forest park and when I came in, they wouldn't let me take my sophomore AP classes. Why? because my schedule was from another school. I had taken one AP my freshman year and all honers classes but they still wouldn't let me take them. They put me in all standard classes ruining my record. Don't go here because if you apparently aren't a student from the day the school was built, they will mess your whole year and future college app upStudent Review9mo ago - Thurgood Marshall Elementary School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AveragePulled my child out because of unsatisfactory services. The admin staff specially Linh Collier is extremely rude. They went against my child’s court order and made changes to my child’s emergency contacts without my approval. When I brought it up and escalated they sent me a copy of custody laws (which I know) but continued to fail to read the limitations of our court order, pulling my child in danger. Even while pulling out, when I requested the records, I was told to wait for a week (which was going to delay my child’s admission to new school). I ended up obtaining those from the county the next day. It shows the laziness of the staff. I emailed a teacher to provide recommendation letter, who did not respond. They do not have special education classroom and one of children had to go to another school just because this one can’t provide adequate services. Definitely not a school for families who care about their child’s behavior and education. If staff is irresponsible and rude, what would they teach the children!Parent Review9mo ago - Enterprise Elementary School
