Open Quote I think that they forget about the kids that might be reaching out for help. Starting to have bad grades or behave wrong, they like to suspend first and then parent has to request them talk to the school counselor. Teachers no longer put forth effort into a child that is struggling academically, they request a tutor. This school is a joke. What happened to the good teachers and just paddling the child for misbehaving and get it over with. Teachers do not know anymore how to handle these kids so they send them to the office. All around poor Close Quote

Open Quote This school and town give small towns a bad name. Education is marginal at best, crime and suicide rates way above national or state average. Small town local mentality runs all aspects of the school and town. No diversity and they don't want any either. Close Quote
