School Reviews
2 10/19/2010
Simply put the teaching and admin staff at Bronson JR/SR High caused a great deal of harm to many students. Their favoritism, apathy towards students they felt were less desirable, and general lack of knowledge within the subjects they were expected to teach created an environment where only a handful of students had the possibility to succeed. I was lucky enough to be accepted to a good University. The sad part however was that I was forced to train myself on how to effectively study and use that knowledge to excel in my major. It is simply a disgrace that the unionized staff at Bronson Jr/Sr High are to lazy to help kids become academically successful.
