School Reviews

It's really sad the way some teachers at Stewart Creek on Freedom drive treat these kids trying to graduate. They exercise control in an abusive form, I've witness rules being applied that were drummed up at the moment. I have not met one employee there that actually cares. If the kids try, they are held back if you don't try to graduate they give a diploma without effort. I'm so ashamed of this facility & the moral compass of those whom work there, it's as if they know a lot of these kids are going to surpass what they themselves have or have not accomplished.
