What people are saying

by a parent
Tuesday, September 27, 2016

The principal and assistant principal have no clue what they are doing. Assistant Principal has never held a teaching license and yet, he's an assistant principal. His lack of knowledge for the job is on display daily. The principal is a total mess. She lacks the confidence to speak confidently at all school assemblies and the students are out of control. I have seen these horrible assemblies with my own eyes! Teachers despise these two and I don't know why the district has not replaced them. The students of the east side deserve better . Principal is known to alter behavioral referrals or not document them correctly to keep numbers low. This school is one of the worst schools in the state of Minnesota. Look at the data. It's not the students, but the leadership. More than 20 teachers have left in the past 2 years due to the lack of leadership. This is a damn shame. Close Quote
