School Reviews

1   3/26/2020
I've only had bad experiences with the staff. I have never done anything to any of them and have only been respectful, and in return I get extremely disrespected. I was told that I am going to have a hard time in the real world, but you're supposed to shape me for that, right? Most of the teachers are great, especially the librarian, but none of the office staff and guidance staff has treated me well in my senior year. I would never send my child here.

Teachers in 19 States Allowed to Physically Punish Students
As of 2014, nineteen states still allow corporal punishment – spanking and paddling the most common choices – in their public schools. However, some argue that not only are these punishments physically harmful, they also are disproportionately administered to students of color. As a result, House democrats have taken up the issue in a new bill that would ban all forms of corporal punishment nationwide.
