Bremen Senior High School

Third, if a student is coming home and saying a teacher is acting like a student and using foul language, this needs to be addressed at the school, not on this website on a review that may or may not be seen! Please speak up and help us address this problem if it s actually happening! There are internal problems at every school, because we are human beings teaching human beings. The system is not perfect and we know that, but we spend countless hours trying to better ourselves and the learning opportunities provided to our students. I would encourage any parent or student (or teacher for that matter) to actually talk to someone in the school face to face before coming to generalizations and posting them. I feel very safe typing this behind my computer screen, but to actually speak with someone face-to-face is hard. Of course, it s the only way true change will occur. If you have issues, contact a teacher, go the public board meetings, find a club to get involved with and experience firsthand what the teachers and students do every day. Thank you.

The principal and the staff came together well to help the students with the death of my son. They did a great job setting up all the displays of my son's stuff for the visitation. Mr. Jennings open the school and never let anyone stand outside in the cold. That was wonderful. They all came together great.

Bremen is a good school if you try to ignore the internal politics. It is a small town and when you live and work here everyone knows everything about everyone. If you try to stay to yourself involve you child in the sports that he likes and not get into the clicks you will be okay. The teachers mostly seem to care and will work with you if you stay involved and communicate with them. My son is special needs and it can be a bit of a fight to get the things he needs but I have a feeling its like that in most public schools. They have only so much money to go around so you have to fight to get your share so to speak. The squeaky wheel gets the oil so to speak.

Bremen is a good school. I would have to disagree about the sports comments. Bremen seems to concentrate more on sports than anything else.

We just moved to Bremen for the schools that I have heard so much about.We were warned about the community and staff not accepting 'outsiders.' I honestly couldn't believe that what I had heard could be more true.My child has told me stories about the teachers using bad language and in my eyes acting more like one of the students rather than being an authority figure.No foreign language classes other than spanish is offered.The children are very limited in expanded their minds outside of the basic material.Clubs and sports seem to be the main priority.I am very disappointed.
