Workman Middle School

"I hated the teachers,students and administration at this school. I’m so glad I moved out of district bc I would never send my son here . Complete waste of tax dollars. Your child is better off being homeschooled ."

"My son fell down the stairs at the hand of another student and was injured, thank God it was not serious. He went to the nurse's office where she did nothing to help him. We filled out the medical cards, which she never read. Had she read the medical cards she would have seen he has had 2 concussions in the past. She called my sister, not me, to inform us of the incident. I never got an incident report to take to the ER and was told that they can't tell me how he fell down the stairs due to the other student being a minor and privacy laws. It took almost a week for them to collect statements and take action. Last week my son was given 3 days iss because their Chinese teacher decided to lie and say he was 40 mins late to class. He was late but only a few minutes after the bell rang. They had to take yearbook pictures for chorus. She told him and another student to stand In the hallway, they were out there for 40 mins. The same teacher was told my son was being checked out 3x's before she sent him to the office 20 minutes later. The same teacher called me from my son's phone during class and had a full conversation with me and wrote him up saying he called me during class and in that same convo I told him to go to the office she wrote him up saying she did not know where he went when in fact she did know because I told her and him. Neither Principal or Dean have the best interest of the students in mind. They have no control over the kids and they don't believe the kids when they tell them in my son's case someone caused him to fall down the stairs. In this situation the Dean was very nasty to me even though my son was the victim. One thing I love about the school is Ms. Swarengin if I spelled it correctly, is amazing. My family are forever greatful to her. She has given my children an appreciation for music higher than my and my husband's expectations. They are better singers because of her. It is sad that she does not have the support of the Principal and school Superintendent. Their holiday concert was attended only by the parents, there was no one there supporting the kids other than Ms. Swarengin. You can see her passion for music and it shows through my children. Thanks for reading.....make the right decision concerning your children's education and this school."

"Teachers simply don't give a rip. My child texts me allll day long because they are allowed to have way too much free time, apparently. One teacher bullied my child and lied about it-I know because she was recorded. Hostile environment."

"This school is dumb the teachers are horrible they suck at teaching and they're lunch is bad the dean is a disrespectful mean man. They can't afford teachers which means they can't give your child the education they deserve this is coming from experience. PARENTS DO NOT SEND YOUR KIDS HERE"

"Not the best middle school. Education is really good. Students are not. I am currently is sixth grade. So this one time me and my friend were in line to get breakfast and this ghetto eighth grade boy STEPPED on her expensive iPhone 6! At least this girl tried to help out. And the bathrooms are disgusting! No one even bothers to flush the toilet! And there is way too much bad words going on. Every time you walk by seven and eighth graders you'll hear cussing!! And there is a "cutting" problem for the sixth grade girls and the guidance doesn't help out that much!"
