Terrible school...the kids are disrespectful, toxic and full of drama.the condition on the building is horrible...there is mold inside the school, rats in the school, and just falling apart.There needs to be more consequences for the students who bully and disrespect others.

The students are toxic and the school quality is very poor. There were lights in the gym that broke 4 years ago and there are no signs of it getting fixed.

I have been pretty disappointed with Neelsville. I do believe the teachers are good and they are doing the best they can, but the atmosphere at this school is not so good. This is my daughter's first year in public school after being homeschooled. She's in 8th grade and she enjoys the school for the social aspects, but I am concerned about the environment at the school. On the few occasions that my husband and I have visited during school hours, we have heard language and seen behaviors that are appalling. I realize that some of this is going to happen at any school and there is only so much teachers and administrators can do in these areas, but the population at the school is very rough and it is very obvious that the kids home lives are unhealthy. My other main concern is the lack of communication and opportunities for parental involvement. I receive very few emails, phone calls, etc. informing me of the activities at the school that are available for my daughter. I've tried to be involved with the PTSA, but unfortunately the leaders of this year's PTSA have really dropped the ball and there is absolutely no activity. I'm also saddened that there have been no field trips planned and it's almost April. My high schooler and my elementary students have been on multiple field trips this year. I have a 5th grader and I am actively trying to find alternative plans for him for next year. Neelsville is just not a good environment.

I am a student in the 6th grade I do not like this school very much, the bus drivers cuss, my classes are too easy, there are too many people who aren't there to learn, most teachers only care about doing there job and not really helping students, we're broke, kids are violent, teachers do nothing to break up fights, and the other people in lots of my classes are not in my level!!!
