Teachers turn blind eye to certain things if you ask me they are the bullies. I thought by bringing my son here will be the best turn out it's the worst. I read the comments before sending him to this school thought maybe it will be a different outcome. No I was wrong.

My experience has been positive. My daughter is an A student, a TAG student, a member of the choir, and is among a diverse group of kids. This school has been good to us.

Really don't know where to start!! School is TERRIBLE! Bullying there is the norm. There's a fight there every other day. We moved to this area 6 months ago and I REGRET IT!!!! Can not wait until the school year is over! My child's teachers are ok and I could honestly say they're probably the only reason why I gave one star. The children have no self control AT ALL! My child will not be returning next year. I would not recommend a dog go there honestly!

Awful. I would not recommend it to anyone. The other children are out of control, disrespectful and they are bullies.

My daughter is in her last year at Kermit. My son will enter there next year. We've had a great experience with all of the teachers. My only complaint is the distance from most homes in Pinson. It's not a convenient distance from Pinson elementary or Rudd. Because of the ages of my children they will never be at the same school until high school. With after school activities and conflicting pick up schedules, the distance from other schools has posed a problem for us. Luckily I have people who have been able to help me out. Others may not be so fortunate.

This school has many wonderful teachers who are dedicated and caring. The only problems are because of the location and number of students. The lunchroom was designed to handle 300 students and there are more than twice that many enrolled. It was built as a small community school in a rural area on narrow roads. The current amount of traffic makes it dangerous to drop off and pick up children. The remote location also hinders parent participation, after school activities and community involvement.
