I wish I had never moved to the district where my child, who has a learning disability, is constantly criticized for things with out proof and subjected to lies. When you ask for proof, they say they don't have any. They like to blame students of color with out looking at both individuals and handing out the proper punishment to both parties but the principal will make sure to punish the student of color from their freedom, and allow other students to bully them, all while blaming a Black student. My child isn't perfect; his grades are good, but I would never recommend this school to anyone.the school has belittle my child and made them feel like there voice dont matter when there in the right this school definitely took a negative affect on her life I will soon be looking to transfer my child to another school.

As a teacher of 20 years I can only say that Ive never in my life seen a school run so poorly after Mr. Sutton left.
Fights, non certified educators, drugs, sexual promiscuity, and no accountability.

My son is on his 3rd year at Murray in a EC class. I have enjoyed the staff even though my son has had new teachers every year. With his medical needs the Nurse has been awesome keeping me informed of my sons issues while at school.
