The principals teachers and one Officer Wilson Continuously harassed Kealie at school. Teachers told other students she was a bad kid. Officer Wilson told several students she was bad not to hang out with her told one student her mom would get drugs for them. It would be hard to do since her mom is in prison and want be out til 2025. Officer Wilson Continuously pulled her aside. Wanting to know what she was doing. She got into trouble vaping her girlfriend had the thc vape kealie and another friend said it was theirs so she wouldn't get in trouble. Kealie had the charger so she was charged with drug parfanilia she had to go to court. Then another incident on the bus several students passing vapes on the bus. Kealie was expelled no one else. Superintendent didn't care one way or the other. I was told she would be expelled at the hearing so I just enrolled her in Penn Foster. So when we went to the board meeting i told them she was already enrolled in Penn Fister.This school cares nothing for certain children.Penn Foster wanted to know what was going on with Sevier Countys schools as they have had a lot of enrollment from here. Told them they don't care.Northview is one of the worst school systems in the county. If you child has any type of emotional or psychological problems don't send the to Northview. Kealie was targeted the 2 years she was there.

I went to school in this county for 7 years. I decided to go to home schooling due to the fact all the teachers are self entitled. I was always being picked on by the popular kids. The kids would throw stuff at me when i would do my studies. I had a hard enough time at home with an abusive step father. Then i had to deal with teachers that constantly looked down at me and said im a terrible person. The principal at northview the year 2016. He constantly would ask me ", where are u going, wat are u doing, are u needing mental help, do u need to go to iss." I got tired of it. This school system is sevierly overran. Its like a jail, asking u where ur at. What ur doing. Strict politicians telling u where u need to go. Strict authoritative figures. I went to juvi for a kid punching me and i fought back. They charged me and i was found innocent. While i was there one of the correction officer said ", You were caught fighting in school? Well, then you know whats going to happen here. Step in the cell please. To be honest, juvi is better then any place i have been in my life until recently. They treated me like a human being. Or relatively. They didnt call me any words. I went to juvi and i was responsive to their words. These schools are more of a forceful do what i say or be punished no if ands or buts about it. Kids are humans too. Government doesnt understand that. Yes its good to look over kids. Make sure there safe. Based on my childhood, i now look at everyone and question, what the hell is wrong with you. Why do you do what you do? I broke my leg and had to walk down pigeon forge u dont know how many people honked and cussed yelled at me for me to get me out of the way. Not 1 person helped me. I was only 16!!! I do not recommend this school system at all. Unless ur kid is a popular kid. If he/shes not popular in public schools, then i highly recommend home schooling or going somewhere else. It has ruined my life. Dont let it ruin your childs.
