Race and bullies are a huge both with student and staff. Kids are punched in face and teachers don't take seriously. And the teachers continue to bully the victim with interragations and suspension. Not a fair school white boys are the ones being bullied now.

We love Prairie View. The teachers have been wonderful and the staff is helpful. The classes and programs meet the needs of the students. It's a school that you can be confident your child is getting the best education possible. Some of the parents, however, could learn a few lessons from their kids...
