What people are saying

by a parent
Thursday, September 26, 2024

As a parent, I’m concerned that this junior high prioritizes athletics and image over academics, especially in the honors program. Despite parents providing clear evidence of teacher incompetence, the administration's solution is always to suggest a parent-teacher conference. It's the administration's responsibility to ensure teachers are doing their jobs effectively—this should not be pushed onto parents.

This lack of quality teaching is detrimental to students who depend on honors-level courses to prepare them for future academic challenges. Without competent instruction, students miss out on essential skills and critical thinking development. It raises serious doubts about whether our children are in the right academic environment to grow and succeed. The administration needs to take responsibility and ensure students receive the education they deserve. I would not recommend moving here unless you have a football player or cheerleader with little interest in college readiness. Close Quote
