Parkway Middle School

In so many ways, I really like Parkway Middle School except for their policy on Suspension! Their policy is as follows: If your child is Suspened (whether it be their fault or not but ended up suspened) Your child isn’t permited on the campus for two days etc. But it doesn’t end there! Your child is also put on a LOP list which stands for LOSS OF PRIVILEGE List for SIX WEEKS! So that Two days is really for SIX WEEKS!!! That means that ANY activities that the school is doing such as, Promotion, awards, year book signing or celebrations of any kind result in your child sitting in the office and staring at the wall until the activity is over!!! A Major Waste of Time!!! I tried to talk to the district office about this and they claim it is a policy that has been in place for many years! I say it’s time we make some changes!!! Two days, should be TWO DAYS, PERIOD!!!

My son goes here. I’m a volunteer. I might just be a little biased.
I think the teachers and staff really care about the kids and in my book that makes for an excellent school.
