Springfield is a great school that has treated my kids great over the years. The school teaches students skills that they can use to become successful in the future. They also offer many extracurricular activities for students to enjoy their High School years. Springfield is a great school that offers something for everyone.

This school is really good! We have state bound sports and the academics are very challenging! I'm in all honors classes here and I'm learning what I need to. It is very diverse here so not everyone is singled out and the teachers befriend everyone! And again we have the best sports and have the best fans and crowd. Best student sections in the nwo!! You can everything you need here whether it be in sports or academics. Also the teachers are very caring and strive to have students succeed. They are fair to any type of student, even if they have a disability. The amount of homework varies from just right to way too much but I would rather have that than too little. And the students are very involved in the community as well! I switched from a catholic school to here and I would not go to any other school! #devilnation

I realize that there are issues in the district with the community not wanting to support the schools and it is sad. However, the attitude of the new principal and some of the teachers is very concerning. Did you know that parents are not allowed to see their own children's exams? The reason you ask? Because the teachers do not want to put in the extra work of making up another exam in case you might give the exam to another student to help them cheat. I even expressed concern that most teachers are solely relying on the online grading system to communicate with the parents and are not sending home any regular tests and quizzes. I told the principal that I felt very inconvenienced to constantly email the teachers requesting for them to be sent home. The response I got was "Why should I inconvenience all of my teachers just for you?". Is this what we are paying for? Is this what our children deserve? To not be offered the opportunity to learn from mistakes, or have their parent be able to help them do better, because it is inconvenient to the teacher?
