I am very disappointed with the professionalism and leadership of this school. I feel students are bullied by staff and when reported you are not taken seriously. I worry about quality of education for my children. I debated on requesting a meeting with the superintendant, but now feel i would miss a day of work to no avail.

Mr Powell is an excellent principal. The teamwork between the teachers to prevent bullying is amazing. They teachers truly care along with the principal and vice principal about the happiness of our children. My daughter is going into 7th grade this year and I am happy to say I have absolutely no worries with this school and it's staff. They made 6th grade a great transition and I know they will continue to keep up the great job!!

Mr Powell has poor leadership. When you go to the Superintendent and the school board you get the Good Ole Boy attitude, they protect their own, before they will a student. That school allow's bullying, and there is nothing you can do about it. It needs new administration and a new Superintendent.
