My daughter graduated from Palombi last year to a standing room only crowd. The attendance isnan indication of the amount of parental support at Palombi. My daughter's experience at Palombi was outstanding. The teachers are not perfect (no one is) but they do their very best; they are warm and passionate about their teaching and they see to really enjoy their students. Palombi successfully creates communities of learners with their team approach. My daughter did not experience any bullies or negativity. Her middle school experience was just terrific!

Teachers don't care much. Coaching is poor. Some are in it just for the money. The Principle seems to care more about gum than girls in trash clothing and disrespectful boys. Not a great place for learning. Glad my kids made it out.

Palombi teachers are devoted and certainly over-worked. They do all they can within their means.

Palombi is possibly the worst school i have ever had the misfortune to attend. The school is dirty and the teachers make it hard for the students to really learn what they should be learning. The children that attend get corrupted by drugs and unseemly behavior and the school does nothing to enforce discipline amongst the students. I am thrilled that i have graduated and will not have to attend. I hope my siblings will graduate quickly and be done with that school as soon as possible.

No. I have heard of teachers setting up FB pages on areas of study so students can use technology as a learning tool. All posts are public and private messages are disabled. I won't even friend former students. I do it as a rule-no hurt feelings.

No! As an educator, I don't want to be held responsible for what students are doing outside of the classroom.

Absolutely not. Most schools offer the homework question site through the school system. They do not need to be "friends" with their students through social networking sites.
