Awtrey Middle School

I am currently a student at Awtrey and would like to share my input. Honestly, this school is average. Other kids may have had a different experience, some good, some bad. Mine was only average. The teaching is a little above average, but socially this school is definitely lacking.

Two of my kids have gone through Awtrey Middle School and there is a third on the way. We have been very pleased with the teachers and I appreciate the administration's willingness to talk about different options when a student needs to be challenged more or is struggling. I find the focus on character building refreshing, including using Covey principles most recently.I find Jeff Crawford, the Principal, to be an outstanding leader and only hope he is there a few more years so my daughter can attend Awtrey while he is still there.

I think it is average because everything is normal except for the girls dress code compared to the boys. The boys get to wear shorts and regular clothes that they wear on a daily basis. Girls on the other hand aren’t allowed to wear leggings unless their shirt is covering their bottom. All of the girls have been discussing how it isn’t fair that they can’t wear shorts that go above the knee. The girls aren’t saying that they would wear booty shorts. But they are saying that they would wear sporty shorts and jean shorts. This reveiw probably won’t help anything because you are probably going to disagree with me. But I’m just telling you what’s not fair for dress code.

Bullying, Racism and all other indecency you never want your kid to go through. They don't want to do anything about this if you try to bring it up.
