Roxboro Community School is a college prep school. I have learned so much from this school and how to prepare myself for college. I've had great experiences with the teachers and staff. My education doesn't feel abandon and unheard by others. One thing I don't like is how the art department is really under fund or not taken seriously. We try doing fundraisers but get ignored, usually a lot of the funds go to our sports teams. I would love to see our art department flourish and show how it can benefit our school.

This is the first year my daughter attended this school. They have a high turnover in teachers. However, they provide tutoring for students with school work. The school has no control over racism and would be very uncomfortable for any minority.

My son has been struggling with grades. He also was disrespectful to teachers. I can understand if they want to kick him out if he gets a third offense, which he has not, but to have the principle tell us my son should drop out and get his GED is so wrong. What kind of educational professional would...
