George Washington Carver Academy

I am a substitute teacher @ GWC and I enjoy my assignments there. There are problems just as any other has, but the difference here is that the teachers and administration genuinely care about the students. I believe more parent involvement would make the difference. Parents volunteer in your child's classroom and observe what the teachers and administration have to deal with on a daily basis with YOUR CHILD! I think you will leave with a different perspective.

I love the teachers at GWAC, however they are not appreciated or given much incentive. These are people who are teaching our children and need the support of administration and board members. I volunteer frequently, and have one child enrolled at GWAC. I don't think he will be back in Sept of 09, which is sad because I really care about the students and the teachers. I served on the school improvement board with disappointing results. Mr. Gordon is a very sincere, hard working principle who greeted the parents and thanked them for bringing their kids to school, I sure hope he stays. He is very compassionate and caring. The management and board members need to listen to the teachers and the parents.

George Washington Carver Academy is a small school housing about 430 kindergarden up to 8th grade students. The Middle School science is small and consolidated and they need more room for the middle school. The middle school teachers were a descent group, particularly Ms. D. The students love and repect her. She also has a pleasant work ethic and she teached so students could succeed. The other middle school teachers were fake, arrogant and lacked real teacher quality.. I thank Ms. D for raising money for my 8th grader (she raised money for other students too I heard) that paid for all of the promotional field trips and activities. I don't know why she picked my daughter, but my daughter would not have been able to attend if not for Ms. D's help! Thank you Ms. D. I hope the school recognizes you as an outstanding

GWCA is the worst school ever. When I first put my child in this school was when they had trailers outside of the school and they were building to look as it does now. But they have had may of people come and go teacher and a principals and the whole I care for students have gone down. There may be some who care but some whom don't. I'm Glad that my child is leaving the school this year and she been there since K-8. This school needs lots of work with Teachers and students learning. I will never tell anyone how good this school is. Due to it's not.
