Black Butte Junior High School

This is my child 1st yr their, We have had nothing but problem their. Every day it was a fight to get my child to school because the other student where so rude to her, She wold have a problem with other student, She would let the school Principal know what is going on. He did nothing at all.My child talked to the teacher about it... still nothing. So she took it in her own hand's. And Now she is getting into trouble because the school did nothing to try to stop the problem before it led to that. I can understand if a student is acting up in class to yell at them but not because the child had the wrong answer to the problem. I'm to the point I'm taking my child out of the school and driving her into Redding each day. I think the school board need to re look at the staff and make lot of changes. From a Parent to a Parent. Please I would think twice about putting my child their. I'm going to the school board about this. And If I have to I will take it down south.

My child's athletic team played against this school. I was apalled at not only the rudeness and horrible sportsmanship of their team, but the violent nature of it's players which was encouraged by their coach and even the players families. In my search for contact information on the website, the principal can't even spell "academic excellence" correctly in their mission statement.. leading me to believe that this school is anything but excellent in academics as well. If I could pick zero stars I would. If you live in this district, I highly suggest you put in for a transfer for your child.

The administration and teachers have their own agenda that does not take into account the best interest or education of the students. My childs education is at risk, so I am now transferring my child to a school that demands accountability from its teachers, its school board, the parents, and the students themselves.

Excellent involved caring teachers that provide amazing opportunities unavailable elsewhere. The small class sizes insure one on one interaction.
