Ravenwood High School

The comment posted on January 21, 2009 is not true. The teachers expect more from these students and are proactive and the principal is personally involved with every student when it is needed.

As a current student at Ravenwood, I am pleased and displeased about many things at RHS. The quality of teachers are excellent, as well as the amount of extracurricular activities that are avalible but I am very upset, on how the student body of the Ravenwood High school is structured. In my time at Ravenwood, I have noticed a rising trend among students when kids of 'minority' gather only with other 'like' students thus segregating themselves from the rest of the Ravenwood community. As a minority myself, I find this very disturbing and I am even more displeased that Ravenwood has yet to take action on preventing this type of segregation from becoming permenant problem in the community of RHS. Otherwise, Ravenwood is an excellent public school and has achieved many things in the short amount of time it had been open as a school.

I am currently attending Ravenwood High School, and I must say.. I really do like this school. Now, some things I do not agree with. For example, the attention given to sports isn't equal to the attention given to the more academical side of things. That may be all dandy for the people playing sports, but honestly.. not every sports player will be going to college because of a sports scholarship, they need to focus more on the classroom and less on the field. Next, some of the teachers need to be re freshened on what they can and can not say to students. Last year, I had a teacher that didn't say any 'bad words' but she did use our valuable class time to talk about politics and religion. This teacher would actually argue with students about these things. It is ridiculous.

Ravenwood appears to do well because of the demographics. In reality, the administration and teachers do the minimum necessary to get by. This could be a great school, but there is no push from the principal to get teachers to be proactive towards student success. The attitude is that it is the students responsibility to perform and there is no structure in place to help. The principle can rattle off sports scores and records from the top of her head, but cannot tell you how the school is doing academically.
