I am unsure of this school having an honest and genuine review.

The bully policy seems to be getting out of hand recently. From what I have heard, the relationship between student and teacher is suffering, where the teachers are using certain students and field trips as scapegoats to justify their abusive behavior. I have heard that students who could not afford to pay for a $15 field trip were sent to a room where they were not allowed to speak to each other. They knew of friends who went to the field trip because they announced over the intercom how much fun they were having and how the others should have paid the $15 to attend this event. I think it is cruel to announce such things to a group of children who didn't have the choice to attend, they do not have jobs, and no one deserves to be punished for that, not even if it is a once a year event, this does not excuse the treatment of these students! I’m not happy with the teachers who are trying to shame and label children as having a “disability”, when their only goal is to force these students into a revenue generating program known as an IEP! I don’t appreciate the fact that my brother and his friends work hard on their homework, hand it to the teacher, only to be told that it is not good enough. That is okay, no one is perfect and you do not have to like everyone’s work, but when they tell you they will try harder, DON’T EVER say the words, “I don’t believe you”. YOU’RE A TEACHER!!!!!! IT IS YOUR JOB TO HELP THESE STUDENTS!!!! These are humans, not punching bags, not cattle; they sit in your classroom all day, so by DEFAULT they are not in the wrong, by DEFAULT they DO have a good attitude, they ARE hardworking, and the students are NOT the problem, so, Tahoma Middle School, I suggest realizing that there is a problem, it is shameful that certain teachers make children feel as though they are at fault, that they are the problem. Tahoma Middle School, I don’t want to see anymore bullying coming from your staff!!!!!!!
