I brought my kids to this school with high hopes, just for them to be crushed, the kids bullied my kid past return, and ruthlessly hurt her, but the school punished her when she went to get help because they thought she was “waisting recourses” she went for 2 years and she learned nothing, she was still doing 5th grade math until i her a tutor, after a month of the tutor she was at a 9th grade level, the school is as well in horrid shape, in her 7th grade year a piece of the roof broke of and hit her in the head giving her a concussion, but the griffin nurse told her to walk it off, 1/5 stars, horrible

My second child to attend this school. Teachers and staff have been willing to help my kiddo with some issues before, during and after school. I appreciate the teachers that help out with Fine Arts, UIL and extracurricular activities to keep these students busy!

The new school is fantastic . My son has had great teachers! I have emailed a counselor twice with no reply but don't have that issue with teachers. The band program is really good,however a little intense for middle school age.

Not a great school. Some of the teachers communicate well but others do not. It is not a challenging environment by any means. The office is very disorganized. If you need to pick up your child early for any reason, be sure and prepare to wait for at least 15 minutes to have them pulled out of class. No communication sent home whatsoever.

I had a very bad experience in this school. I moved last year to a near distric, so much better,! Still getting a lot of negative feedback about one of the assistant principal. , I still have a lot of friends whos kids go here and their unhappiness is growing day by day. I am just going to say that I am happy I moved when I did and I don't have to deal with this people anymore. My kid is doing great in Frisco ISD .

The teachers really try to help my child succeed in his classes. Whenever I have asked for how he is doing during the year, they respond right away.

They seem to really care how the kids are doing in school.
