100% successful with educating the kids. They do research in mathematics and writing. You can tell that the students here are receiving the best education. Their skills and communication surpasses those of other students who are not attending Springbrook. I believe family teaches what they can and I see my kids more mature than me as a result of their education.

There is a fabulous esprit de corps @ SpringBrook. They are moving their disadvantaged population in the right direction. Cudos to teachers and support staff!

As a teacher who has worked here for 8+ years. I am very happy with the new admin. We are doing GREAT things at SB! If I had a child I would bring my child here.

Springbrook has made a lot of positive changes in the last year. They have high expectations for students and shake each students hand every morning.

Generally, I have observed faculty who care about their students but struggle w/ kids w/ behavioral issues & apathetic parents. My child has had two wonderful teachers & academically is on track. I have seen staff volunteer their time after hours for these kids & try to host activities to enrich their experience. PTA tries their best with a body of parents who are largely unresponsive. This is a school w/ many kids in financial need & resources are greatly needed here. I will say my child has been happy, is learning & feels safe here due to quick intervention from staff in regards to altercations.

I believe this is the worst school my son has attended. The academic percentage is completely low an there has been a lot of teachers not suffering consequences for their actions toward students, especially when it comes to the children's safety. My son was assaulted today by parent as well as another young boy, the school refused to let my son call me and there was lack of anything being done the parent was not arrested. so I have to take matters into my own hands being that the school is showing a lack of support or care for this issue. My child will be removed from this school asap! I will not recommend anyone to send their child to this school. It's not worth risking your child's education or safety.

spring brook is a horrible school that neither has the resources nor desire to want to improve it's poor education. Springbrooke is a magnet school for behaviorally challenged students and the school is unable to control the student behaviors in a safe and effective way. This schools idea of academic education is to memorize old MSP tests and focus only on reading and math. science, writing, and social studies are all but ignored or become honorable mentions through out the academic year. The PTA is weak and so extra curricular activities are not available and students who are smart and need a challenge are left in the dust as teachers scramble to help the lowest achievers meet standard. If you care for your child's well-being and education you will not let them be placed in this school. my recommendation is that the district shut it down. and fire all of it's staff immediately.
