Barnett Junior High School

In the office the staff is so RUDE some are ok but the most part I just think that if you are in education you should have some type up education not get a job because your mother or friend works there having a high school diplomia is the first start not a GED because this saids a lot about the Principal Leaderships this school needs a investigation of who the staff is.They have a couple of teachers that really care how the kids are doing.althought 90% dont care just there for a paycheck.

I have had so many problems at Barnett Junior High! My daughter made good grades, was well likes and received many awards in her Elementry School. This is her second year and it's a nightmere! Kids are suspended and parents are not called. Kids get into fights and the parents are not notified. The principles are rude and do not work with the parents and kids. Kids are to be at school learning...not worried about being bullied. The school needs a complete overhaul!!!!! One more thing, the music they let these young ladies dance too so inappropriate. I was there for the try outs for Sprit team and again for a talent show! I was horrified by the music!!!!

HORRIBLE SCHOOL. It is almost impossible for parents to get in touch with the staff especially the principle. I find it to have a bad learning enviornment i mean how can a child learn when day after day the are getting bullied and have no one to talk to no one that would listen to their problems!!!!! All do this school does have high test scores it has the worst environment for kids that get bullied to learn!!! It just broke my heart when I go to the school and see the same kid getting PICKED ON OVER AND OVER AGAIN!!!! DAY AFTER DAY!!!! And no one does nothing about it. This school has some serious issuses....

This school is just horrible to much bulling and staff members no help. Principle never available to speak with parents. I can't believe stdents are bulling classmates in such a horrible way. !!!! I am very disapointed and angry I am against BULLING!! I just can NOT tolerate the type of behavior in this school.

This school is amazing, it actually has great supportive teachers. many kids dont follow the rules though.

This school is horrible, I have never had so many problems with my child before this school, it's so hard to get in touch with the principle, he never calls back or answers any questions. The rules are a big joke, the kids don't seem to take serious. So many fights go on here and drugs are a big issue too. I can't wait for this year to be over!

My daughter was assulted at school within the 1st month of school by a boy. The school will not do anything about it and the police on school property are no help. The boy admitted to it and we want to press charges bit they wont do it JUST give him a ticket!! 6 fights already at that school... Pulling my child out within the week!!

barnett is an awsome school the teachers actually care about ALL of their students they do NOT give up yes there is drama but its a school what do you expect. the principle is very outgoing and gets to know all the students because she walks around the school at times just to make sure everything is ok she cares deeeply about this school and everybody in it

Barnett Jr. High School, is more than just a school of academic instruction. This school is a family of parents, teachers, and students who have come together from around the area to mak a positive name for this school The principal is caring. The students are grounded in knowledge, skills, and background experience, which prepares them for high school, and other obstacles foreseen in the academic layout.

I personally think this school is great.We were hurricane evacuees from New Orleans and Texas education is far better than ours but I think my daughter has gained a lot considering the short time she has attended,we are back in New Orleans.My husband and I are planning to return and would like our daughter to attend Barnett.

Overall Barnett is a great school, however it may not be always fair. You don't want to come to this school if you want your child to have equal rights. They only look at one side of the story. But overall in academics they are very above average.
