Where do I start ? My education here sucks. And the teachers are not the best at what they do, all they care about is getting paid. They say we are disrespectful and have no home training, and are retarted. How can we learn when ( mr.burbank) constantly says how we won”t even make it out of 8th grade and how we will be flipping burgers for the rest of our lives. Seriously the school needs bigger and better change than it does now. And thinking bringing a new princpal into the school made a bigger change. All she did was change a few rules. Going to lockers now is just a complete mess and everything else about it. Also even if the kids act the way they do you should not judge. All a kid needs is ecourgement and inspiriation to do better and make the right choices. No one ever asked how the kids felt about everything they are just to quick to judge. And even when the kids want to do right we cannot for example my grades are bad the teachers told me to stop hanging with the wrong “crowd” so I did. I got new friends and limited it so there are yall happy !! My grades still suck and I tried to get switched out to an ” higher better class for my future and all I get is I’m not switching you because your an “social butterfly seriously stop worrying about my life and get me what I want because At least Im one of the ones trying to do the right thing. One last thing is this Place ” you guys so called school is like a jail no bright futures just dark rooms full of judgement and hate.

Some of the Teachers in this school is so wack. They wont provide homework when your child is suspended due to self defense might I add. You have to harass them to get make up work and chances are that you still wont get it!. I’ve had a teacher tell me that my son didn’t turn in any homework. I drove from Rockville all the way to Bowie on my lunch break to talk to my son about not turning in his homework while he was in her class. My son kept saying but Ma I didn’t haven any homework I’m not lying. I get to the school and the teacher tell me oh I’m sorry that was another student! I’m so glad my son is out of this school! THANK GOD!!! They need to get it together!!!

Tasker is in transition and appears to be trying to make positive changes. However, the new administrator, Ms. Hill is rather immature and seems to have a superiority complex. She was absolutely no help when my daughter’s schedule was turned upside down. She seemed more concerned with letting me and my husband know she was the one in control than actually helping my daughter who was an honor’s student. At our scheduled meeting she wasn’t up to speed on my daughter’s situation or even took the time beforehand to know the name of my daughter. I was truly disappointed. I pray things will get better.
