My son attended Calumet for the 8th grade only. I was not impressed or satisfied with the school leadership. I feel as though the principal and the teachers were more attentive to disciplinary actions rather than focusing on the fact that the children did not have the necessary tools to thrive in the environment which they were in 6 hours or more of their day. My daughter attended Calumet during the 7th & 8th grades. There was little to no improvement in the environment and yet again they had a new principal. However, the 8th grade students did receive new books. but again I feel more attention was geared towards disciipline rather than education. Yet, while I am not an educator, experience has taught me that no 2 children are alike. You have to stimulate and motivate the children to learn.

There is little leadership here at Calumet, and the some of the teachers don't care, and the extracurricular activities is very little, why cant' we have music and drama classes, as well as weight training some of our childrens are over weight and kids make fun of them. We have very little parents involvement because parents must work. also they are in needs of help with class work, they have no spelling words or workbook, they have limited books for our childrens. How are ours children going to make it. where is the homework helper when they need them. And the 8th grader need locker, they don't have any locker. last yr my daughter share locker with 3peoples that is not right. yes calumet is limited and we need help from the state and the community, plus parents.
