    STEER CLEAR! - a former student…read more I was an Alpha-Omega who almost graduated from here. I transferred out in High School and found that every other school in this area is better than this cesspool of toxicity. First of all, faculty here is horrible. I would say 10% of them are decent people, 70% are rude and incompetent, and 20% are EVIL PEOPLE who should NOT be let around/allowed to work around kids. Over my time at the school, there was multiple issues with discriminatory teachers (who chose to belittle children off of race, gender, religion, etc.) and teachers who had questionable actions towards students. All of these issues get swept under the rug, of course, because the Oakridge way is to never take accountability for their wrongdoings and push it onto the child somehow. Any problem with faculty is dismissed by Admin, and if something of severe consequence happens to your kid, good luck getting anything fixed. I had many horrid experiences with teachers, as did a lot of my classmates (to the severity of which any other school would fire them for) and the school always conveniently managed to find an excuse or spin it to where it was on the kid. This was a common occurrence for a lot of students; more than just me. The Headmaster as of right now, Mr. Burgy, really cares about the kids at the school, but the board (filled of people who get free tuition and haven't been enrolled in 10-20 years) severely limits and hinders any meaningful and good progress in the institution. The board is the one pulling the strings behind Oakridge, and that's the biggest issue. They don't spend any time on campus to learn about issues, and instead go off of their outdated experiences. The students aren't much better either. Lots of bullying and hurt took place here, but that's the environment the school breeds. The school claims to care about bullying, yet when I was getting death threats and cyberbullied online, they wanted to turn a blind eye. (I've yet to determine if it was because one of the bullies was a teacher's kid, or just negligence like previous bullying instances with other students.) Seriously, save your kid's mental wellbeing and your pocket from endless therapy bills by avoiding this place. If you don't listen to anyone else, listen to me, someone who lived this school for 13 years; who grew up here, and was discarded and treated like trash.

    I have enjoyed my experience here. I do not feel pressured to donate, and I do not think my child…read moreis treated differently if I do not. My child is getting an excellent education to prepare her for the world stage.

    For the love of God and all that is holy, if you can't afford to send your kids to private school,…read moreDO NOT move to Fort Worth! The public schools here are horrific. I went to William Monnig, Handley, and Eastern Hills HS in the 90s and started junior college with the math skills of a 3rd grader. I could do long division but I didn't even know how to reduce a fraction. I was passed over as stupid by all of my teachers. None of them thought I was smart enough to waste their time on. Actually, it's hard to concentrate on school work when the kid next to you just made a big scene about sitting next to you because "white people smell like milk or bologna." Or when 8 girls have formed a circle around you in PE class and are pushing you around. These types of things happened daily and in front of teachers. No one ever tried to intervene. I, however got plenty of detentions for not going to class. Gee, I wonder why? I lived in fear for my life after a girl tried to set my hair on fire. A girl I had never even met. Don't think for a second that anyone asked why I wouldn't go to school. Decided to get the heck out of that dead end hell hole when I was 17. I was still classified as a freshman. Bravo Fort Worth! I sure hope you get one of those blue ribbon banners. Hahaaaa! Actually, I wish we would have had a voucher program where I could've chosen a healthier and less hostile environment. Ya I tested low because I didn't know ANYTHING. Thank God this is America. The land of opportunity. Where pulling one's self up by their own boot straps and hard work pays off. I went to jr college to catch up on what I didn't learn in my formative years, transferred to a university, and graduated with honors. No thanks to you fwisd. I was always top in my class when taught in a stable environment. Wow Fort Worth, how did you let me slip through the cracks? How many other kids didn't make it out like I did? Worst. Schools. Ever.
