Wunderlich Intermediate School

I can guarantee the parents who complain about their child being reprimanded for "insignificant things", that if your child is in and out of ISS on a regular basis - we at the school need more support in correcting their actions. The students at this school are wonderful (most of them), the staff works hard (most of them) and the parents are very supportive (most of them). I only wish that we could provide more time, more money and more resources to the betterment of these children.

I think the teachers are awesome but the administrators are way to strict. My son gets ISS almost every other week from stuff like talking too much or picking up a marker off the floor. He got ISS for using an unauthorized restroom?! Isnt he missing valuable lessons by sitting in ISS all day? I can understand if he is doing something to harm him or someone else but how strict is too strict? We cant wait for school to be over and move on to high school!

As a parent we need to reflect on ourselves. As parents we need to understand that school is a place for education and learning. Teachers and administrators rely heavily on parents to do our parts and teach the basics to our children which is RESPECT for the individual. Our children are a reflection of us the parents. We only get what we put in as parents therefore it does not matter what school your child goes to or learns from. It is what we as parents learn to expect what we accept from our children. Yes, the school is strict but fair. But in the real world we have laws, rules, policies and procedures that we must follow as adults. So why do we expect any different from our children. What message are we sending our children? Wunderlich needs more parent involvement then you can truly see the value in what any school has to offer. Our children are there to learn and if your child can not do so then maybe it time for you to find a school that is suitable for your child and what you will accept from what you expect from your child.

First of all, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. But if you really want to know what Wunderlich or any school is like .. you need to spend some time there. Yes, the administration is tough... as a parent... I love it. How are my kids doing? Both (7th and 8th grade this year) have had great experiences at this school. The academics are just as tough as any school in the district, they can do sports or lots of extracurricular clubs etc. Ironically, we are pretty much a minority at this school as it has a small Anglo population ... and many of our friends or neighbors get extremely nervous about the school but once their kids attend the school ... have a real change of heart. I like that they don't put up with 'helicopter' parents and have a zero-tolerence for BS.

The school hands out suspensions for just about anything. The faculty is very strict which I believe makes it touch to feel as if you're really at school. I'm glad I don't have to spend any more years at the school as the the school is more worried about scores than the students.

I can't even offer a rating for this school, that's how bad I think it is. I've read all of the postings here and I've had the same issues with my boys that other parents have experienced. The only solution these teachers and principals seem to have is to give suspension, whether in school or out side of school, and while it may make the school officials look good on paper (for taking care of the problem child), that punishment remains on the child's record throughout all of their school days until graduation. That's going over board. Suspension used to be given for truancy, smoking and/or drinking and drugs, but now it's given left and right for stupid things such as talking in class. NO I'M NOT KIDDING! It's time to remove your kids from this school and home school them so they receive the education you expect them to receive.
