School Reviews
5 4/14/2016
We recently had our child attending Pryor Junior High school and found the staff, particularly the counselor extremely unhelpful. We tried many times to get our son extra help in a variety of areas such as reading programs or information on summer programs or after school programs for students and the counselor would tell us she would get back with us and we would never hear back from her. She just doesn't seem interested in her work.
