My granddaughter was constantly bullied and harassed at this school. I have filed several reports with ok2say, reported to the Senators and the governor. Some of these parents need to teacher their kids about what racism is and how to be better it’s 2023. We live in this district I transferred her somewhere else that’s how bad her bullying and harassment was . Are these schools federally funded? If yes so what are they funding? I’m going to pen and paper (write) every day about my granddaughter experiences at this school.

Terrible. We had to transfer out of the school due to the poor education being provided. Math and science teachers are unqualified. Students in grade 7 English spent a lot of time covering sentence parsing which was already taught (and more effectively) in grade 5 primary school.

Six years with OT and SPL services and not once did they mention Dyslexia or Dysgraphia, just pushed ADHD (which my child does not have). After just two weeks in OT outside the school and my child is writing. The special services at UCS are ineffective and disconnected.

I transferred my daughter to Eppler after she had been bullied at her previous school in another district. She is so much happier now! She has her own issues, but despite those, she has made a small group of true friends and has constant support from her counselor, teachers, and principals. She is getting good grades and a great education. Transferring her was the best decision my husband and I have ever made!
