Metropolitan Nashville Public Schools — Attraction in Berry Hill

I'm a student at an MNPS school currently, NSA to be exact, and never until now have I actually had good experiences and enjoyed school. I have always had some sort of gripe about something. The bathrooms, the teachers, the bullying, the ways bullying situations have been dealt with, THE MOLD?! When I went to Litton, which is a pathetic, sorry excuse for a school on all grounds, there were multiple ceiling tiles in different areas where they had either bulged or completely rotted and then collapsed and made a huge mess on the floor. They had to put a bucket and trash can underneath the two which had collapsed. Also, many of my peers have found that the milk that they serve in the cafeteria at lunch was both chunky AND past the expiration date. I'm almost positive that there are other schools in Nashville that are like this, but wow, are you just asleep at the wheel? I guarantee you, if you ask any of my former classmates/peers who went to Litton what they thought of the school or if they enjoyed it, at least half would say no, or have some sort of complaint. I've also heard things about not closing schools during FUCKING TORNADO WEATHER. There were schools out of power with downed power lines. Really ensuring the safety of your students and staff, just phenomenal job. Anyway. NSA is very LGBTQ+ inclusive, but our school doesn't get the greatest treatment by the district for that. Inversely, I have had the best experiences learning, socializing, and just existing in the environment that I am in at NSA. I didn't feel safe at Litton and even sometimes at Dan Mills. Do better.

P.S. Even my IEP professional in 8th grade seemed to hate me and didn't seem to understand or have patience for me at times. Your job is to help me with my ADHD, not...

McGavock high school needs twice the adults than it has cause the adults there are too busy putting out fires all day from the gang fights and trying to keep the kids in line to pay attention to or actually do an investigation of videos being taken of special needs kids in the bathroom stall being then airdropped to the whole school(that has iPhones) in turn causing said special needs kids child to develop PTSD from the experience and being suspended for his behavior coming from what happened to him plus HIS DISABILITIES IN PROCESSING WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM AT YOUR SCHOOL! No one did an investigation for my son cause either cause he was a special needs child and who cares about that, or cause he wasn’t high enough priority on the fires that yall have to put out daily where it mattered! If you have a special needs student please reconsider McGavock high school. Go somewhere else! My son is a shell of the person he used to be now and he is in diapers due to incontinence from trying to keep away from the bathroom due to fear! My son was a good student in grade school and junior high! I have to retrain my 15 year old and hope his body figures out how to feel when he has to go to the restroom! If he can’t then he has to go to urologist! Please reconsider sending your children...

One of your drivers hit my wife's car while she was in a drive-thru at a Chick-fil-A. The driver got out of the vehicle and started yelling at my wife blaming her and being intimidating instead of being a grown up and acting as such, and intimidating her instead of admitting to her mistake. Instead, she called in her friends from inside the store and further spreaded her lie that she was innocent in the matter. My wife had to leave because she didn't feel safe in the situation was getting way out of hand. I called security and was on hold for over an hour. Never got an answer. I emailed one of your security officers and never got a response. Raises a lot of concerns. How can you call a security office and be on hold for over an hour and think that is an acceptable way to run a security office. How can you allow someone to drive who is not a responsible adult and represent the city and its education system. How can you not follow up on incidents that are reported to security officers....
