I'm not sure why people have such a negative image of this school. True, there are students that have a lack of respect for learning, but can tell me of a school that doesn't have students such as this? The teachers at this establishment care enough for these students that they give their all everyday to make sure every student has the opportunity to get an education. This school has had it's ups and downs, but through it all, they've kept their heads up and not let it get them down that people put down their every move. You may not agree with what the administration says, but it's they make those rules in the best interest of the students. I ask that you do not look at Sweewater High School with a bad eye, but merely give it a chance to succeed.
If your child attends this school they will not be givin homework because they will not allow them totake books home. Funds were cut because of low scores that showed no improvement. The worst school due to funding, location, and faculty.
Sweetwater is not the best school in the world, most definitely not, but i've learned and continue to learn from fun respectful teachers. All schools have bad students and show how disrespectful they are. It happens.. so chill. I wish that there was longer time to have lunch or a free period. Study hall is so boring and students might actually like school if there was something at least a little bit fun.
This is school is a bind in the moment for the fact they are loosing what I consider,a great program, the High School Band. Due to lack of consideration both from the High School and Junior High the band has lost their feeder program. This means since the feeder program at the Junior High no longer exists the band will be gone within two to three years. This is a great disappoint due to the fact that the band the past years has had superior ratings. I really hate to see this happen but someone needs to do something about this and get the Junior High feeder program back or the High School band will no longer exist. What will it be like with no band at a football game?
Sweetwater is an excellent learning environment. The teachers try extremely hard to teach what i consider the unteachable.
Complete disrespect of students and parents from the faculty and staff, disturbing mismanagement of funds, teachers hate their jobs, and let the students know frequently... the fact that this school is not shut down is an absolute disgrace.
