C. A. Jacobs Intermediate School

I will move out of this town before I send another child to this school.

Terrible. I have had students at 4 schools in the district and this is by far the worse school. While I like the other 3 schools this one is an embarrassment to the community. The office staff tries but the Principle and Vice are a joke, unless you work for the district do not expect any support from them. Just getting in for a meeting may take weeks for one parent while another parent may come in an hour later and get an appointment that day. Favortism and politics run this school. Sports teams are based on politics not talent. Teachers are mixed. Some, are great but the majority are new and really do not know what they are doing. Classes are easy for advanced students but for students that cannot teach themselves they will struggle. The school is run down and over crowded with little supervision. And now they want to add 6th graders to the school. Stay away from this school at any cost

They really don't seem to take care of my needs. As a student there, I can easily say this has been the worst school experience ever. Just why does this school exist anyways?

If your child is advanced at all expect them to be extremely bored and have absolutely nothing offered to them that would in any way make them wish to succeed. Staff give referrals and suspensions freely and without reason or make something up just because they don't like w group of kids. Academics are sorely lacking, staff barely care , parent concerns are ignored. This is pretty much the worst learning experience i could have imagined my child having and regret sending him every single day. I have asked around and many children have stated it feels more like a prison than a school because the principal is on a major power trip. School is run down and junky and it's an embarrassment to say your child attends this school. I have two more children coming up and i will do everything in my power to avoid this destitution and completely wasting 2 years of their lives. They learn nothing and nobody cares.
