Oakridge high school is by far one of the worst schools i've delt with unless your kid is really into sports I recommend don't send your kid here. The students are treated like robots. Every thing is policy policy policy read the hand book. There is no personal touch here. my child has been bullied by staff and students they can't punish kids for hurting your feelings so they say my child was also suspended for being to sick to go to saturday school. There is no special treatment here no matter what the circumstance they just throw their policies up in your face. this school could improve by treating students like individual people instead of robots. the only positive thing about this school is your children are physically safe but mentally they are definately not. I tried to discuss my childs problems with staff to make them aware of her condition and had a positive outlook that this year would be better but as to my surprise it didn't really change anything cause they are stuck on policy is the best and do not look out for the best interest of your child as a human being only as a robot Close Quote
