My son has attended this school for 2 years and I'll be pulling him out to homeschooling him. My reasoning for doing this is because the staff cares for nothing else other than the money that goes into their pockets. My son has suffered from illness after illness during attendance od this school and not one person cares what could be causing it or how he is doing. Instead I get nasty notices home about his attendance, despite the fact that I am following their guidelines and keeping him home when he has a fever. He was kicked off his IEP, I believe more because they don't want to follow the guidelines. If you are thinking about placing your child in this school, don't. Your child will be surrounded by unfeeling, uncaring robots who care more about how much funding their school is receiving from my one absent child.

This school sucks, my English teacher is so dramatic. She is making us have a funeral for a stupid fictional character who died. And, she is forcing us to act sad about it. I asked her, "Why do we have to have a funeral for a fictional character?" She said, "Merely, I'm offended, she is a symbol and people can relate to her!" Pfft! Yeah right!

This school has its bads and goods. First the office ladys are rude and not only are they rude to students there rude to adults to. The yard dutys pick favorites and only care/like certain students. There is some good teachers and some bad teachers some of the teachers actually do care for the students and help them with their grades and the other teachers can be rude mean and they talk to the students as if there weak not only do they talk to them if there weak they make them feel weak and most students are to afraid or even scared to tell their teachers their feelings or even their opinion I mean I did have a teacher tell me one time if I didn't agree with her then my opinion was not aloud in her class. And when a students does speak back to a teacher a teacher calls it back talking or giving attitude but its really not were just trying to say how we feel but 99% of the time the student is looked at in the wrong. The office people and yard dutys talk crap about students at our school not only have i heard it but other people have to. the princepal we have now is wonderful and great he trys to make every student feel welcome and feel safe. even though there is a lot of bad at this school students always have to learn to deal with it cause most of the time parents will believe the teachers. I have even learned how this school works and it does have some goods but I have learned to work around the bad.

This school sucks someone called someone the n word at school and the principal didn't do a damn thing about it I also give this one star because this school is sexist to boys in including me and the worse part is their food is disgusting and it gave me Corona virus their food is soggy, they have spoiled sandwiches and they don't vegan for vegan people and the last I want to say about this school is they don't take care of bullying everyone should call this Daniel savage stupid school.

I went to this school 6th through 8th grade I was constantly picked on and got no help. I'm a sophomore in high school now and today 8/14/17 a member of their janitorial staff decided to kick out trespassing bikers and pinned it on me.

Savage is a great school with very committed teachers and administrative staff. My son was active in athletics, band, and academic extra-curricular activities last year. I have witnessed the dedication these teachers/coaches provide to their students. I am extremely appreciative of their engagement in my sons' life and the lives of all of students.

This is the worst school ever. The school is filled with many spoiled, stuck up, and annoying little brats. They have very low test scores too. They lose every year in every academic events, especially in Math Super Bowl. Ustach always kicks our butts every year.
