Mazie Gable is an awesome school. The red lion school district is amazing. I don't know why the rating is low but the teachers are truly a gift and all the staff are just wonderful people. Mazie Gable teaches students to be responsible and productive citizens. Close Quote

My 5 year old son goes to kindergarten here. I've tried multiple times to get in contact with his teacher with questions or concerns and never once received a response from her (and we're coming to the end of the school year).

When we were enrolling they tried to push us off to another (even worse school) and the man responsible for these transfers tried to tell me that I had no choice in the matter. I knew this wasn't the case, and we couldn't go two miles away because we needed to be able to walk to school. I was only able to reverse this transfer by making a formal complaint to the principle at Mazie Gable.

I'm also disgusted by the amount of junk food promotion at this school. I'm not a total prude, but in one week, we had a homework sheet where they practiced writing about going to Mcdonalds, Wendys, HEB and Taco Bell, as well as a sheet offering a prize if they eat enough Lucky Charms to get box tops, a sheet where they sorted and ate Lucky Charms at school, and they have all the kids hyped up about going to Chuck E. Cheese to raise money for the PTO (which we can't go to and of course he's miserably disappointed about). This is only in one week. They also get candy almost every day, and their ideas of healthy food are lousy at best.

When I contacted the principal she was very combative and basically told me that these activities are good for the kids learning and there is nothing they plan to do about it. Essentially she gave me the cold-shoulder-shrug off, and of course his teacher (who I called first) never responded to me at all. Close Quote
