This school needs a roof when its winy And when it rains we all get wet and sick and they do not let us inside the school because the bell has not rang so we have to stand outside in the wind and rain all cold because they want to have an outside school .And the teachers do not grade there work on time .

Ok so I have been to this school and the staff is so mean and she always blow her whistle so loud and she keeps on rushing kids to go to class but the problem was that we just got to the lockers and the teachers are rude and they are using their phones in class while we are doing the work and I don't understand why does the teachers can go on their phone even though the students can't the teachers and students should not be going on their phone regardless and the dress code I got dress coded but I was wearing plain pants and I had a lot of problems at sedway and there are bugs at this school also I think this is the worst school of all the schools and this is why am moving because I had a rough year I thought this school was going to be fun and kind and stuff and they plan to have a field day with eight graders on their last day but the sixth graders or the seventh graders didn't either this is the worst school.

My sister and I went to this school for a week and instantly regret it. Most students are very racist especially to me since I was one of the Asian kids in this school. People are rude and mean to each other. My experience in my classes is not good. Students use their phone out of class, and in class. Some teachers even use their phones in class too. Kids don't learn anything from this school. Hey, the sister talking here! A LOT of bad experiences. For example, they threw PAPER BALLS at my sister! And the phone thing does not end there! I was put in a Latino leadership class (which is unusual because I am Asian), and all they did was use their phones. Only had one paper assignment and the rest of the classes were just using your phone. And in PE you just had to walk 20 min then you could use your phone for the rest of the period. I tried to play volleyball by myself, and everyone looked at me weirdly because all of them were using their phone.

Terrible. If my health hadn't deteriorated forcing me to place my children in this school because bus service was available they would never have enrolled here.

Teachers and staff allow and even seem to encourage bullying, especially bullying of non-white students. If you MUST send your child here, PLEASE BE AWARE OF YOUR AND THEIR LEGAL RIGHTS AND PROTECTIONS and be prepared to enforce them.

Terrible. Shutting this school down or completely overhauling the staff from Superintendent down to every last teacher and sub may be the only way to turn this into a real school.

The staff encourages bullying and had an 11-year-old arrested without bond for defending herself after being bullied for 3 years. Both the student and her mother had brought this to the school's attention with it being brushed off.

More parental involvement is needed. Parents should not rely on the school to raise their children.

The bullying is terrible and staff seem to not care about the safety and welfare of the children.

This school shouldn't even have a rating. It is the most ugliest, despicable school I have ever been to. I finally left that dump last year, and I am currently a freshman in highschool. I hated that place. That place is so.. there is no words to describe that school. Bullying and fights happen every other day, and to the point where some kids just never come to school. I have the worst experience, that I needed therapy. I never want to to return to Sedway, I hate it with all of my being. No one cares about you, your education, your future. They treat you like garbage. Please parents, don't take your kids to Sedway.

I go to this school and the kids are horrible. There always so-called fights and this place is a dump. The kids are rude and have vulgar language. They do not care about academics or education. They do not act right and are focusing on other things beside school. These other things are not appropriate. They have no respect for the teachers.
