Open Quote Mabry Middle school in inman sc is the most redicilious school I have ever seen! The students do not get an education! Phones and crome books is their education. You can see for yourself the students are all on instagram and other social media sites all during class posting videos and I can't say that all the teachers are awful teachers but very many are not what I consider a teacher... the school has many issues as well as the high school and everything is swept under the rug!!! Students jump on road workers and post it on snapchat it all gets threw out. If a student pulls a knife on your child as long as the knife isn't over 2 inches long it's all ok in their opinion. Teachers are fired for inappropriate conduct even the principal fired because of not investigating the allegations. I have children attending these schools and am planning on removing them and homeschooling as soon as possible! It's is really crazy how they they can still receive our tax money to operate such a redicilious school! Close Quote
