Posted March 7, 2012

I am very dissastisfied with my child's stay at this school. We had to move during the middle of the year so I talked to the principal and told him about it. We waited until Christmas break to move because the principal had said everything would transfer fine. We moved to the new school and my son who is in 11th grade was told he would not recieve credit for the whole first half of the year because we needed to wait one more week. This makes him half a year shy of credits now and he will not graduate on time. i made numerous calls and even wrote the superintendent of the school who basically said he didn't care about my situation and that it wasn't his problem. Well I guess not because he isn't the one that has to explain to my son why he doesn't get to graduate next year and that his whole half a year of going to school was worthless because they will not transfer his credits. They just don't want to do it so I guess all the higher ups lie about everything and I will end up having to put as much bad press out there as I can about them and possibly pursue legal action. This school is horrible and very uncaring about their students and parents.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Wyoming administered the Proficiency Assessments for Wyoming Students (PAWS) in reading, writing and math to students in grades 3 through 8 and 11, and in science in grades 4, 8 and 11. PAWS tests are standards-based, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Wyoming. The goal is for all students score at or above the proficient level.
