- I have been told be staff members of other schools that when you walk into Parker, you can just tell it's different. There is a sense here that teachers and administrators truly care about the students. As a teacher, I know that not only the education, but the well-being of "my kids" is the most important thing to me. We, the staff, are dedicated to doing our best to create a positive environment, which admittedly can be difficult considering we are attached to the high school and can not always control what happens in the building. I believe we have, and continue to, make Parker a positive place to work and learn.

(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - This is a school that I would never let my child attend. There were only a few good teachers there. It is connected to the High School and while I was attending some of my friends got sprayed with mace from the high school kids. Bot a good idea to send your child to this school.( Just my thoughts)
