I hate this school! The only good principals are the women. The men principals walk around trying to push the males over the edge. Mr. Williams is a black man who does not care about the young black males at his school. His job is to work hard to send the males to the alternative school. I cant believe he has held a job this long! If you can help it do not send your child to this school. The only reason I gave the school one star is they have a great math teacher Mrs. Lynch!!!She bends over backwards for her students. The best teacher ever!!!!

Every student is expected to automatically know all the rules and regulations without any written knowledge of it. They suppose to have psychic powers I guess. School is ran similar to prison minus the jumpsuits. In my opinion that prepares students for a smooth transition from school to prison.

I graduated in 2014. The school is alright. It’s not the best, but it’s not terrible either. There are some excellent teachers, who do care about their students and go above and beyond. There are also some bad teachers, who could go back to college and relearn a thing or two. There were a lot of fights that happened just about every day while I was there. There were also a lot of gang related shootings and fights during my four years there, the biggest one was during 2012. I went back after I graduated to be a proctor, and that was horrendous. The teacher I proctored for told his students how long they had to complete the test, and said that they could sleep the first half, if they wanted to, and he would wake them up at the half point so they could take their test. After the school finally announced that the EOC had ended, they started releasing students by halls to go to lunch. I rode with a former teacher to the school that morning, and after the testing was done, I attempted to walk back to her classroom because I was stuck there until the students got out for the day. Mr. Williams stopped me and told me to go into the lunch room because students could not roam the halls. I told him I was not a student and even showed him the visitors pass I was wearing on my chest. He kept arguing with me, stating that I had to go into the lunch room and could not roam the halls or I would be suspended. This may be why it is so hard to get proctors, and retain them!! If you are a recent graduate, or look young, I would not recommend proctoring.

As a graduate of 71st, I can say that the instructors, administrators, and support staff did an excellent job in helping all the young people achieve greatness! I miss my school! Fly high falcons!

The band experience, the interest of the social workers, guidance counselors, and teachers have made a terrific experience for my son. He is now a senior bound for college.

The principal, Myron Williams, and the administration at Seventy First High School will go out of their way and against their own policies just to inconvenience you and your child.

Has a important role in the Fayetteville community and a great school.

They dont want to hear anything from you your always wrong and their always you try to utter a word suspension or iss they may describe it as a good school but do you know how many shootouts there are at that school and how many gang related fights there are the only thing I can say is good the boys and Mrs jocelyn simpliciano

Being there was a great learning experience for me and meeting new people was great. Class of 2009!!!!!

They 5 Day Policy Is Dumb , Cause What if An Emergency Comes Up And we need our phone i dont think they think about that . But anyways Mr.Parker And Mrs.Peoples Are The Best Ones In The Building To Me .

This school is unfair and do not communicate with parents as they supposed to. My experience with this school is the worst I ever had as a parent. Dont bring your kids here. I try to contact Mr Parker for an explanation but never to be found at school.

The whole school overall is just terrible if you don’t believe me just read the other reviews it sums it all up

It good

Great school

Awesome

Awesome !
