Can someone please help me get this guy off of this bus im 12 years old i ride bus 397 at Bejamin Tasker Middle School i want to avoid Marco from flirting with girls
this school is horrifying all of the staff has attitudes and this one teacher mrs. fraser gives al her students e's and the guidance mr. mccorkle doesnt let your child get switched out.
The school is totally disfunctional!!! The administration and many teachers have very low expectations of the children. The teachers have very little interaction or contact with the parents and exhibit a nonchalant attitude toward teaching. Many teachers are not held accountable for their teaching performance and allowed to continously fail the students with poor grade. The school's current performance is so bad that a recommendation should be made to place into receivership by the state and transformed into a winning institution. Another example of our wasted tax dollars!
Awesome, dedicated, hard-working, teachers
My daughter attends Benjamin tasker. I moved out of howard county the greatest schools ever to come to bowie the worst schools ever. Benjamin Tasker is horrible. If you have a CHOICE i advise you to use it and not put your child in there. The teachers let the children run the classroom and there are way to many fights.I went down there to sit in every class of my daughters and it was shocking how the teachers ignored the students question was texting and on there personal cell phone at the same time as teaching. One of the teachers were on a phone and started swearing right in front of the children! they have no respect for the parents either they never email you back or call you back when you try to make a conference there to busy. my child is going bak to howard county nxt year!
Benjamin Tasker was soooo bad that i took my son out of this school and he is now home schooled... the teachers are rude and dont have any control of the children...
Te school is great my child goes there and everyone around him are honeroll students and very well behaved
Please do not send your child to this school. The administrators are horrible no one responds or accepts blame for anything that happens. There way of solving problems is suspend for everything. Suspension in the school is being abused. You get in school suspension for talking at lunch, talking on the school bus. They need a whole new administration team. Classrooms are out of control.
Not happy with the school. I have lived in Bowie my whole life, the elementary schools are great, then there is Tasker. A lot of people are moving out of Bowie because of Tasker, they can't afford private school. All around out of control, overcrowded feel when you are there.
I am a student at btms. I have been going for 3 years, since 6th grade. I think that the teachers act like public school teachers. Some teachers dissapear for months and leave the kids not learning anything. Other teachers teach the students nothing and expect them to pass the tests. Tose are just some teachers. I was lucky to have teachers who helped and explained things to me.
