My children did well, were social and athletic. Loved lake ridge. Went to college and was successful. So our experience was positive.

Administration only cares about state test scores and reputation. Equity and Diversity - that's a joke. 1% black students, 99% entitled white rich kids that bully the kids that don't fit in with their snobbish standards. Overworked, overstressed teachers that have to get all of their core curriculum in for the year, but more so focused on making sure the students are highly trained at taking state tests and scoring high per their administration. It was interesting that two of my children were 1 to 2 grade levels behind yet scoring ridiculously high on their state tests. At what price do your kids have to pay to go to one of the top schools in Oregon. Don't fall for it.

However, some argue that not only are these punishments physically harmful, they also are disproportionately administered to students of color. As a result, House democrats have taken up the issue in a new bill that would ban all forms of corporal punishment nationwide.
