Aside from that, that school is staffed with some wonderful lovely teachers that really do care for their students success.

Tonight I attended EBHS's play Grease.

They had a small "consignment" where they sold chips, candy, and THEE cutest themed cookies (wished I would have taken a picture before I devoured one of them!). I bought 3 cookies, two for my kiddos and one for me. We were given a program of the play and we quickly chose our seats. We got aisle seats on the middle left side of the auditorium. Before the play started, (as usual) I had to use the restrooms. Being at a school function I was a bit worried that it would be not up to par, but it was clean and all necessities were well stocked! The play started promptly at 7pm. The students and staff did an amazing job! Was this really a school play? They looked like pros! The costumes were on-point, and the stage looked like it was out of a professional Broadway play. Great job everybody! Now, I had to take a star because of the sound. Although you can tell the kids knew their songs and had angelic voices, it could not overtake the bad speaker sound. At many times it was hard to understand what they were saying while singing. Other than that, the play was great!

This school is extremely overwhelming strict and sexist. As someone who has attended Actis Jr High,…read morei would NEVER allow my children to go to this school as this school is very mentally draining and unsafe. THE FRONT OFFICE, AND OFFICE STAFF DONT CARE ABOUT YOU. When I would go up to the office they would never help me at all, instead they made me feel very dumb and as if I didn't know what I was talking about they constantly gave me attitude and dirty looks while speaking to the office lady's. They continuously taken my own personal items like clothing, and my cell phone that was kept with them for a whole week, I informed them that parents were unable to get the phone in time while school was open and refused to give me my cell phone at the end of the day. In my opinion there was no need for them to keep MY stuff in their office for a WHOLE ENTIRE WEEK. Now I wanna talk about how sexist the dress code is. Girls aren't allowed to wear jeans that are tight or have rips above the knees, spaghetti straps, crop tops, and shoes that reveal the toes because it attracts male attention or is "unprofessional" and "inappropriate" now this is where things get serious and is out of hand, NO OVER AGE MEN/WOMEN SHOULD BE STARING AT A YOUNG GIRL. This is mainly towards Mr postif as he is the only person that points people out the most and dress codes almost everyday but mostly the girls now isn't that just strange?? THINK OF IT. The way we dress doesn't depend on our success and the way we pass in school, we can dress the way we want. As girls/women barely even have the rights now days this doesn't help and girls deserve more RESPECT and need to stop being treated as if they are some fragile toy by some stupid adult at a school where children are supposed to be comfortable. And if it's really that big of a deal men/boys in school should be taught to control themselves. PE TEACHERS/PE Don't even get me started with them as there are no good side to them. Let's begin with the locker rooms, when I would change into pe clothes I would be stared at my miss postif and miss karen. Locker rooms are extremely crammed, humid and have a bad stench to them. Mr jones has made many girls uncomfortable, and I've caught him staring at the girls many times during pe. I genuinely don't know where they get there teachers from and how they get hired but they should be fired. The comfort and safety of the students is most important that anything and this isn't being treated very well. I remember there was a time where I got judged by miss postif, she pointed out my biggest insecurity and I cried in the school bathrooms messaging my mom to pick me up because I couldn't take it anymore.

I am a current attending 8th grader, I will graduate in less than a week. I have had nothing but…read morestraight A's this year, and A's and B's last year, yet this school treats me worse than kids that tend to fight or get detention. This school REQUIRES you to buy either the P.E clothes or a gray shirt or blue shorts for 20$. If not, your grade drops or you get detention, in my opinion, this is dumb, dressing out does not determine you participation in sports or your efforts, this should not be such a problem to the school, if it isn't harmful, why do students get detention or even after school detention. This goes on records! "Student didn't wear a grey shirt and blue shorts, so they go after school detention" make that make sense. Teachers here are either kind or rude, most do not care of your learning. They will leave you behind if you cannot grasp the subject within a week rather than ensuring all kids are able to learn. They will get angry if you ask questions as if it isn't their responsibility to answer these questions for students. While there is tutoring, it shouldn't be needed if teachers are able to teach properly, and many students do not join tutoring in fear they will be bullied for being "stupid" which the school does nothing to stop. Bullying is a huge factor to this school, I myself had been bullied for looking "different" I wore band Tees and had a side part, multiple times I've been called names in front of teachers, yet they brush it off, I have been threatened because I was answering questions in class, I've been called nerd and dork. The teachers do nothing and neither will the office. Even if they do, the worse they get is detention. I witnessed a fight before, the kid that started it got a week of In school suspension, while the other walked in the hallways in fear that the friends of the bully will harm him. And while I admire the school's ability to see the "good" in "bad" kids, they refuse to notice that even after months of being a problem, they will not suspend a kid for longer than a week or keep them in separate classes. They refuse to help the victims and only treat them on what they see and not what actually happens behind closed doors. This is why kids are in fear of their bullies. The school will do nothing if they tell. Instead the bullies will only bully more and continue, they might even turn worse for being a 'snitch'. Because the school basically allows this, these kids don't change and continue to make other kids uneasy or feel as if they cannot speak what they feel. Mr. Postiff, he is too strict, he dress codes shirts with bands on them, dress codes shirts with certain font, he dress codes my bracelets for being "spiked" they are rounded, and the spikes do not damage to the skin, a pencil would hurt more than my bracelets, and why would they care? I am a good kid, with good grades, and try hard, while there are kids that do drugs and are horrible people, but they do not care and focus more on harmless bracelets. They don't care about the children and rather dictate how kids act and look. The office ladies are rude, I bought a ticket for a road trip there and they spelled my name wrong, I asked them to change it, they said no. And they speak with attitude as if I am the problem.

If you do take this class / job training, have a lawyer on retainer, or at the very least document everything so you can complain to Americas job center / B.A.S. Some things you may experience provided things haven't changed : Nasty OSHA violations like walking on glass shards without proper PPE, or using forklifts to lift things beyond their wight limit. Being bullied and harassed at every turn only to be told you are the problem. ( Threats from other students of physical violence, and actual physical violence at times) . Being told you can't talk politics and then having a teachers talk to you about politics all the time. The teachers give you a class on harassment, only to harass you and encourage other students to do so. This might all might be sufferable considering how short this program is, however the job placement is terrible, and poorly thought out. A lot of things are promised upon graduation of the program, and very little of that promised support happens. If this program in question doesn't go well for you, complain about it to Americas Job Center or B.A.S. as soon as possible. If enough people complain something will change. This program is advertised as a way to change lives. For some people in very desperate situations that may be the case, but for most the solution is to just seek out an actual education or career. Most of the certificates in this program you can get for free at a college, without having to do something like this. The certificates that cost money don't cost very much. The pay for the work you do in this program is meager at best, and is paid out on a prepaid debit card.

She really does do everything she can with limited resources. My little on, 10 yrs old is struggling the most. He is failing everything but because he tests well, he doesn't qualify for special ed. He also was born drug addicted, we adopted him when he was 4 weeks old. He has behavior issues which would be overlooked if I didn't make the school punish him, he cannot do basic 3rd grade math and he is in the 4th grade. The school has been putting me off for 2 yrs and have done nothing to help him. It is now the end of the year and nothing they promised to help him catch up has been done! They are just pushing him on to the 5th grade in hopes he'll be someone else's problem. I've tried to get him held back and they refuse! He is going to continue to fail as long as they keep pushing him through. It's horrible and my son is the one who suffers!! This is just a little taste of how they do things now. It doesn't matter that he has no idea what he is doing in class in all his subjects, it only matters that he tested slightly below average so too bad, just push him through to the 5th grade. Remember everyone, my son is your future.
