Might be slightly biased, but Proctor High School offers so many opportunities to the students free…read moreof charge. Though Proctor gets a bad reputation because of a small population of students who are extremely challenging, the majority of the students there are charismatic and bright. The faculty is really exceptional, meeting incredible demands by the state, administration, and daily interaction with students from both poverty and affluence. The diversity is really a gift, with many students teaching others of tolerance and open-mindedness that they would never get to experience in another district. Though it is a large school (and really should be two schools) it's peaceful most of the time. Test scores are improving and great things happen there each day.

When she reached out to the school she got no answers. Who decides it isn't necessary to inform parents? Who decided parent permission was not needed to take her child off school property to go to a Q center? Thats a queer center for those as clueless as I was. What happened to a parents rights in the upbringing of their children as clearly stated in the Constitution??? People of this school district need to make their voices heard!! Your silence is hurting these children!

I feel like my girls were fish in a sea, and not looked out for even when issues were brought up to guidance office. I want a school that cares about my child like I do and wants what's best for them. I did like the 8th grade guidance Counsler but I felt like the best interest of my children were overlooked while other children relieved more attention. My children now attend IHC and it seems to be worth every penny.

DO NOT GO HERE!!!!!!!!!!!…read more I started going to school here in 5th grade wasn't a great experience. won't provide details but I transferred to another school when I came back half of 8th grade year I could already feel I was being judged for my past. one day I was stressed over grades and shi when in lunch I just wanted to ignore everyone. the school I came from allowed hoods not knowing this rule here I put my hood up and laid my head down on the table. not eating at all. a power hungry lunch monitor came up to me and asked for me to put my hood down not asking if I was ok or anything just wanted to express the "rules" when I refused she became very rude and called me a "cry baby" for attention when I was just wanted to be left alone. so I cursed her out calling her multiple slurs and got in trouble. I will take accountability and say that's my fault but you can't just worry about rules more than a students wellbeing. most of the teachers in the ms are nice its when you get to HS they show their true colors the school cares more about sports than other programs and they claim they have the "best" music program. the morning announcements have a whole segment for sports when a school play or other important events only get a notice or barley mentioned. the admins don't care at all about bullying unless your a student athlete. it's when you take matters into ur own hands when it becomes an issue. oh and the cell phone ban. many teachers say at the start of the year say "I won't be on my phones" yet do it anyways. the school community and area is racist and very non-colored friendly many students pray on you because of your color and the teachers do minimal effort school fights happen to a tea and the admins barley get involved unless a punishment is given out or a student athlete gets involved. most of the time its the athlete getting away with it even if they start the fight. if I could rate this negative stars I would overall if your transferring to fort drum do not send ur kids here it is not recommended at all!

ever since I came here, my life has been a nightmare, the staff rarely cares for the students, it…read morelies about being bully and drug free, when in reality, they punish students who come clean and try to quit, and they ignore bullying. I had gotten suspended, for going to a guidence counsler, one of my teachers had read my friends diary/journal, physicaly picking it up and putting it to her slimy face to read it. making my friend cry as they left the room. when I told the guidance counsler this, and told them that the teacher needs to apologize, I was suspended, and they said I could not return till I got a threat assessment. for bullies, when a bully physically hurt my friend, and I stood up to the bully, publicly, I was the one who got in trouble, there was no fight, just an exchange of words. some of the caffiteria staff are power hungry, they mainly get after students that they don't like, and their favorites, get away with everything. one experience (my sibling, not me,) was my sister. she was overwhelmed with grades, she needed more time to study a more important class, and she was going to drop band so she could get a learning center, and rejoin next year to continue her passion for music, even offering to still continue the lessons provided without the grade that comes with it, because she was dedicated. but instead, the band teacher, got some of the music department to cohorce her to stay, bullying her, teachers, bullying a student, into staying in it. it got so bad that our parents had to get involved. one day, I bought horned hair clips with my money, and wore them to school, not as a costume, but as hair clips, and I got called the devil, or playing as the devil as I walked through the tight halls. one class I have, we have roudy students, (like literally, they interrupt the lesson, they yell, they cause a ruckus, they slam chairs, act stupid, and just act like toddlers, they litteraly caused the whole class to be punished for their actions) and the administration wont do a thing about it, even after many complaints. I've been threatend to be suspended over minute things, sleeping in class, wearing a head covering to hide my unruly hair... wearing hair clips. teachers get mad at me for drawing in class, even when its part of my 504 plan. speaking of witch, I've only gone to my meetings about MY 504 plan. ONCE, they have made the decisions without my knowlage, or consent, for YEARS. I only know 3 things about my 504 plan, extended time on prodjects if needed, I'm allowed to leave the class for a break, and I can draw to help me focus. and that's the extent of my knowlage of it. there is only a few good experiances I've had, and only a few. some teachers are nice, inspiring, some days I don't get bullied, but at the end of the day. this school is the worst place to send your kids. and the only reason we didn't go to a preparatory school, was because all of them was religous. in all truth, move out of NY, this place sucks, and if you cant, homeschool your kids in the carthage-watertown-blackriver area.
