Anna Murray-Douglass Academy No. 12

"When I was at this school it was crazy. a fight happened almost every day and most of the teachers there were mean and some used bad languages they had to get security guards because the fights were so bad but that didn't stop anyone I got hit by a door from a teacher and they told me. Well u shouldn't be right there and they always saw me as a bad kid even when I did nothing wrong I hope this school has gotten better."

"I went here back in the 80s and it still has not changed apparently. I was physically abused by two teachers in one year. My mother forced the district to transfer me to another school that was definitely better staffed. This school obviously needs to be shut down. If they cannot afford properly educated staff then this place needs the boot. I personally would give this no stars if possible."

"My daughter started this school last year mid year and has fallen behind and is constantly bullied. Today her friend was choked and had her hair yanked and when my daughter told her teacher the teacher said and i quote " what are you the town cryer " my c child is 8 and this bullying is out of control not only by the kids but by the teacher that is supposed to help and handle things like this! I wish we never came to Rochester!"

"Parents i would not recommend this school there is not enough preventative action. They never check into things including medical conditions. The teachers label the children as being violent even if it's 1st graders crying. They say your child us lying about something and when its found out they werent they take no accountability but they will ask students to bare with their mishaps. The plus side is that school is nice and maybe after this current principal takes over staff and faculty will work with parents and students instead of it being a power struggle or blaming game"

"Ever since my child been going here they labeled my child as a problem child it's very sad cause the teacher always pointing the finger at him but never call to tell me about other children bullying my child I feel this school isn't a good school for my child. The main desk Spanish lady is very rude I wish my child never went to #12. Speaking from my experience. I know people who see a nice school outside of the building by how remodel an renovated it is but it's still flawed with slot of imperfection at first I thought it would be a nice school by the way it looked but I was wrong I couldn't even meet the teacher the first day of school because they said they didn't allow parents upstairs witch the doors are locked that's fine due to safety reasons but you should be able to check up on your child that's crazy. I'm just so over it I get more in more upset because they won't transfer my child I feel it's the parents right to make decisions on where they want their children to go. Rcsd is messy too it's ridiculous"
