Thomas R Fowler Middle School Reviews

My daughter has always struggled in school.  As a result, I've had to have weekly email correspondence with her teachers in elementary school.  As expected, when she moved into middle school, she struggled even more with the multiple classes and teachers, new environment, and new friends.  When I attempted to communicate with the teachers several times, IF I got a response at all, it was nearly 3 days later, after I've already spoken to my daughter to discover the truth of the situation and fixed it.

I'm very disappointed in this school.  With the frequent staff turnover, lazy faculty, and lack of communication between the departments, I find it useless to involve the school with the needs of my child.  Rather, I am training my child to adapt to their incompetences by having her just nod at school to anyone and everything until she speaks to me, where we can understand and resolve the social and academic issues together.  Considering Fowler is an establishment for education, one would think that someone there would have a clue about the culture of today's youth, as well as, strive to understand it.
