| I know that this school is probably one of the most disorganized, under regulated schools in the entire district, if not in Texas. My son learned nothing. The teachers are all basically, with the exception of a few, act like they could care less. One teacher even told my son when he complained about another child stealing his lunch money that it was HIS problem. I have endured this pathetic excuse of a school for 2 years. I was sick of complaining about the lack of attention paid to the children on the playground when kids were wandering outside the parameters. Also children attacking other children and nothing being done. The cafeteria food is horrible. One employee of the private company contracted to serve meals said many of the food products were improperly stored and out of expiration. She said their goal was to keep each meal under .70 per student to maximize profits. The principal is an idiot and cares more about her hair and her clothing than the students. I am sending my son to private school until he can attend a different school in this district. OH, and I am not the only parent to complain, we are all frustrated and sickened by the lack of teaching and care regarding our children. |
