  • I moved here 3 years ago was treated poorly by this school and hate that i have to return by the end of this year to it because it's my home school. I so wish I could stay where I am!

  • In the fourth grade you get to switch around with the teachers. (Which I Do not like at all) But if you had my teacher and didn't like her that and you saw her for 3 hours. I don't I would like it.

  • I homeschooled for many years. I have also enrolled some of my kids in a charter school. Puckett has done a better job than I did and was much, much better than the charter school we used for one year.

  • I have been highly disappointed by the principal and faculty at Puckett. I would not recommend this this school to my worst enemy. I have enrolled my children in private school so they can get a quality education.
