What people are saying

by a parent
Thursday, February 16, 2017

This school is behind in every aspect. From the moldy old facility to the disrepective Principal and Vice Principal, The only reason we stayed was because our first and second teachers were probably the best the school has to offer. Kindergarten was a joke with the teacher not being replaced with an actual certified teacher. The scores are absolutely terrible once the Children get to the third grade. The children seem to be a little more rough around the edges and lack of
Parent evolvement is obvious.
The bullying situation we had continually was brushed off with the Principle, she never shows respect to the parents and will always address you as "Mom" or "Dad". The Vice Principle also was very unsympathetic when my child needed help finding the bus, which was always breaking down hence needing help with finding the correct one. They never allow the children to interact at lunch, they turn the lights off and play movies that sound like your in a tin can, would drive any sane child mad! The school feels like a prison. No one seems positive except the hand full of teachers and front office and Janitor. The combination of these major factors caused my child such issues along with the scores, building and faculty we moved out of the area. I believe Mr. Morgan needs to replace the Principles and fight for a better building. These kids are suffering and will never catch up. Night and Day with our new school. Our new Cobb co school sends out weekly emails about what's going on and is very involved in every way. Close Quote
