School is no good. Administration is not doing their job. Grades are horrible, despite constant extra credit, because students are not made to do the work. Teachers are 'friends' to all the students and the kids are failing. Unfortunately, when they move out to college, these kids are struggling because life is not the same as it is in this little town school that doesn't care about education. Teachers and staff need to do their jobs.
They allow them to play on myspace during class time. I have talked with admin about this problem and nothing has been done. They are still on myspace and other social networking sites DURING class. Getting information about how their grades are difficult and the teachers, one in particular, is uncooperative. Now they use online courses for the students, such as PE. But they will allow a child to do these courses even when the child can not nor will not do school work in school. They expect them to do the work on their own, while they play myspace in school. This school is very unacceptable. They need someone from the state to step in and clean this up!!!
A school that cares more for sports than education. Their biggest concern is where the money for sports will come from instead of how all the students can get a text book of their own. A lot of legel matters and turmoil. Put some money into the schools themselves and dont worry so much about the sports and mabey the buildings would be falling apart. This district needs some help.l
Very economically challenged area. Four day school week with long days for students. Turmoil in administration - many changes in Superintendent and HS Principal position has lead to chaos with faculty and students. No true leadership at this time and low student/teacher moral. Board/Admin issues roll in to legal battles due to lack of education of state/education laws. Great teachers for the most part that really need motivation and positive leadership. Great community support of school events and students.
