Euless Junior High School

Thiss school has the worst front office staff anywhere. I have 3 kids that are all in school ( only 1 went here ). this staff is extreamly rude & seems to have little reguard for the children & helping them learn when they are having problems understanding. They seem more concerned with putting them into ISS or Sat school than they do @ helping to fix the problem. I finally moved my daughter out of there & now she is excelling much better @ Harwood Jr. High.

I have 3 children who have attended this school, I have heard from them and many of their friends that the staff at this school seems to care very little for their welfare or their feelings. Many children are subjected to bullies here, that steal from them and destroy their personal property. The attitude I have gotten in the past from staff on serious issues is "kids will be kids", or "I didn't see that happening" - yet their eagle-eyed spotters can see a headphone cord hanging out of a backpack from 4 rooms away and use "policy" as an excuse to humiliate the child and confiscate their property, making them feel as though they are being bullied by the very people who refuse to protect them from more serious crimes. This school has always, and continues to engage in practices that are pathetic examples of both neglect and abuse of authority. No wonder so many parents in this area have so much difficulty teaching their children right from wrong, when the school is teaching them that its OK to steal, bully and vandalize - as long as you didnt bring your nintendo ds to school. (Piorities people, priorites)

I am a teacher and parent in HEBISD. Euless JH is a great school. Sure the school has their problems, what school does not. What Euless does that other schools don't makes them exceptional. The school teaches that the students should be and are responsible for their homework, test, behavior, etc. This is how it is in the real world. Most schools do not have Dhall anymore. The EJH administration does a great job in making sure that the students serve their Dhall and are responsible for their actions. Look and the state scores and it will tell you that the teachers and principals are not their just to get a paycheck. Kuddos to EJH!

This school is the worst school I had ever seen i had been to many schools before and this one is the worst i have seen, you get detention for no reason just b/c the teacher feel like it and you only use the restroom only 2 times every six weeks and if u used it more then that you get a detention, teachers only worry about their paycheck and don't care about students, every day there is a list of about 70+ students for detention and you don't serve it you get a saterday school, so worst school and I think this place should be shut down as soon as possible.

This school is pretty boring. Most of the teachers don't even bother helping you when you need it. The food is usually not that great. Overall this school is not that great. Band and choir are really fun though, and a lot of the teachers are really nice, just lazy though. The noise from the highway can be pretty distracting though. I've been to worse schools in my day.

I have to say I chose this school district based on the ratings on this website. Elementary schools are great but this Jr High is the worst school. Detention is such a joke. Surely there are kids that need to be there on occasion but every other day?? Some teachers return calls or respond to emails. Most ignore you, if they are ignoring a concerned parent what exactly are you doing with our children. I can only venture to guess here that they are ignored as well. Teachers see what they want to see and ignore assaults!!!! Because it's a student they really don't care for...The state should shut this place down!!

i am actually a student at euless junior high and the school is terrible. kids bully me constantly, and the teachers do absolutely nothing about it. They in fact are concerned with their paychecks. They only allow students to use the restrooms in class twice every six weeks! they tell you to go between passing periods, but there is never enough tine because there are like 3 minutes in between periods. As a student at ejh i have observed from a point of view on a daily basis. and the school is not a choice to make if you have one.

I believe that most of the teachers are not concern with teaching the kids, but always looking for away to put down the students. They have no concern about the safety of the children, many of the employees at EJH are just there to receive a paycheck as often as they can. I believe that this school needs to be closed down because it serve no real purpose in life for a great success for the students. The HEB School Board doesn't even care about the kids. What happen to educational professionals teaching, and caring for the well-being of all students.

My son has goes to this school and I am not pleased. Due to the school is on a busy hwy and knowing that they dont have buses picking up or dropping off if you live less than two miles from the school. Some of us are single parents that cant always pick there kids up and these days you cant trust kids walking home scared someone is going to snatch them or even get hit cause they have to cross several busy streets.. Also they get detention for the stupidest things. They sometimes teach things that arent even obtaining to education, like watching movies that shouldnt be shown in school. My son got sick one day at school and asked to go to the nurse and the teacher told him no. That evening my son ended up in the emergency room.. Just not pleased with this school.
