I don't regret my time at Short Elementary. I attended Short from pre-k through sixth grade, and I witnessed a lot. One thing I hope changes is how degrading the faculty was towards their students.

Each year seems to bring a new issue—whether it involves student bullying, inaccurate or conflicting information from staff, or incidents that appear to go unaddressed.When...

Despite the presence of cameras and the teachers’ awareness of the situation, they have failed to take any action to prevent further harm.The lunchroom is a chaotic and unruly environment. Children are standing...

The school has had an F rating for so long. I don't understand why the state doesn't step in. Why do all the teachers quit mid year? Why is there a revolving door of staff at a great building with engaged parents. Why do they teachers not want to stay? It's not the kids, for sure.

Great school, great and friendly staff and teachers. Teachers try their best with their students but unfortunately most of the kids and their parents d not care.
