There is not ONE single thing I could say positive about this school. Except maybe, the school secretary is very sweet and tries to be as helpful as she can be. The teachers that go above and beyond to help the students, the ones that are passionate about shaping these young peoples mind I thank you!
No books are sent home, notifications for events are unless the school somehow profits off it. The principal is an absolute joke. She gets incredibly defensive when all you voice whats best your child! For the older kids, they are going to have a rude awakening when they get to middle school. Many things have happened over the years that have made me even question my Childs health. It all feels pointless when no one helps you even though they want more parents to care. The typical white girl of Southaven seems to be more important.

Very VERY unhappy with the school this year. My child has an old curmudgeon of a teacher and a guidance counselor whom both are old school and unable to change with the times. My child used to love school, now it's a battle every morning to motivate my child to go. To the teacher who said there is a lack of parental involvement; not all of us are like that. As another parent said it sure would be nice for those of us who want to be more involved to feel welcomed. Not allowing us in the classrooms creates suspicion and distrust.
