If you want to send your child to a school where they will get bullied, then this is the school for you. The principal ignores your phone calls and emails and reroutes them to the dean (who seemed to be the only person that actually cared about my student at the school). The teachers get away with making inappropriate comments towards students, including telling the entire class about my daughters past prior to being adopted(without her permission), and the school claims to be "non punitive" in order to excuse the bully's behavior. She was made fun of for her appearance, for having two moms, for having short hair, for being adopted the list goes on and on. There is zero accountability, and my student was choked by another student in which I was not notified of. She came home crying almost every day and was told that people were mean because it was her fault. We moved here from another state where she was excelling in school, her grades dropped severely the first grading period here, she was told she was ahead of all the other children, but her grades did not reflect that. When we asked for homework to work on the subjects she was struggling with the teacher told my student "That homework was stupid and that her mom's wouldn't be able to teacher her the work anyways" If I could give this school -5 stars I would.

This school is not a school I would recommend for any child to attend. There is discrimination and racism associated with the staff there. I am very disappointed in the APS school system and I truly hope Lowell is able to get it together. However, my kids will no longer be attending this school for any reason.
