School Reviews
2 1/27/2010
Seagraves ISD is currently one of the worst districts around. I recommend parents to compare it to local school districts before deciding to enroll their children in any Seagraves school. The district is being managed poorly by the administration. There is no consistency in discipline and absolutley no communication between the schools and the community. Seagraves ISD is not improving in academics and has lost its winning tradition.
