American Indian Public High School

Posted July 21, 2009

I am a student at American Indian Public High School. This school is so cool, with great discipline, teachers and staff are there to support me and everything else. Even though we don't have PE in 11th and 12th grade, we do a lot of work at Merritt, which is where one of the administrator up here helps us with what we needed help. Great supporting teachers as well as great students. What I think about principal involvement in this school is that they are there to help, you could always ask questions and they will be there to help you whatever you needed help. Especially now that Mr. Glover is replacing Mrs. Roberts, he is really trying to be a good Director as well as be like Mrs.Roberts. What I like about this school is that they are like a second family to me, and everything else.

This school (AIPHS) is, truth-be-told, a good school in terms of education and grades, but it lacks a lot in many areas. Where are the extracirricular acivities thatv children can get involved with? Where in the 50 states did sports go? And what about removing of the lockers for PE? It's bad enough they are a small school and doesn't change classes each period, theefore no lockers, but at least let them change for PE! Why don't parents get a say in the their children's education? They don't know, half the time, what their 'beloved' children are doing at school. There should be some improvements. The most important is that the courses are not challenging at all! Some children sit in class nbored and not learning. Their educcation is being jeopardized because they only have one teacher for their academics and one for PE. That's it?

My child does excellent in school and has ALWAYS enjoyed the learning process UNTIL she attended AIPCS. While my child was there she received very good grades but was treated like a robot instead of a human being. My child described the teacher as mean, distant, and often times unprepared when it came to the reading materials (as if the teacher did not read the books she assigned!) They administration would prefer NO parent imput/involvement at all. They are kind and helpful at first until you have an administrative concern then the fangs come out. My child describes it as the worst school experience EVER. It was an unfortunate experience with the one exception of finding out about JHU Center for Talented youth (independant of the school) which my child has benefitted from tremedously. My child has changed to a knew school and is striving and thriving!

This school is consistently strict but caring for it's students. Within this environment, students can excel at the harder subjects like math and science. Their testing is amazing because teachers relate lessons with real life rather than just throw information at the students. Also, for the 11th and 12th grade students, I think it is a good idea to have them take college classes so that they get accustomed to that type of academic setting rather than just the goofy, nonchalant public high schoolers their age.
