Open Quote We love KHES! All staff members provide positive experiences and really care about the kids, parents, and community. They go beyond the call of duty to do what is best for each student while providing an exceptional education. Close Quote

Open Quote The music teacher alone is enough reason to attend this school. She is not the normal, watch a video sing a song type teacher as what is offered by the other elementary schools. She plays the piano, flute, recorder, and has a lot of drums for the kids to bang on. There is even an outdoor music garden in a peaceful setting. The other teachers are caring and push the kids to be their best. This school would be rated higher if it were not for the financially challenged and mentally challenged student KISD seems to collect in this single location. Even with that challenge the school is great, the kinds get a well rounded experience, and the place is safe and homey. Close Quote

Open Quote This is my third elementary school that my children have attended in KellerISD. The administrative staff is much more involved than at the other schools and I feel welcomed on campus. The teachers go above and beyond and will work with the parents to push their children to their potential. Close Quote

Open Quote This school does not have enough staff to monitor all of the students who attend. Often the lunch room and playground are monitored by only two people. The classrooms have no aids, and so there is only one teacher watching a class of twenty plus students. Close Quote
