Could not ask for a better school! I have had kids here since 2010 and loved every second of it. Had an issue with one teacher but it was resolved quickly. Principal always very kind to everyone and involved in the day to day happenings at the school! Close Quote

The Principal is the main problem. The word Micro Manager is often used to describe her. She is known around the district for being hard to get along with and is down right mean to students and staff. She will smile at you the first time she meets you and can be presentable when she chooses. She can also be your worst enemy that will go out of her way to make your life miserable.

The school is completely inefficient due to poor management and planning is filled with theory and very little in the way of real solutions. Every single one of the staff is miserable due to mistreatment and mismanagement. The Principal thinks she is smarter than everyone, including you, if you're reading this. As a result she is incapable of making sound decisions.

The day the principal retires or is forced out, will be a day to be celebrated by all.

You have been warned. Close Quote

many things are wrong with this school currently speaking of course, many teachers have been bullied by the principal, yes bullied ! this school has been known to have many children hurt on the playground equipment, nothing was done about it for years. the bullying at this school, the principal is supposed to turn in a report to the HISD school board, and unless you force her to do it and see it with your own eyes, and make sure its been done, she will hide it. The school gets priveledges and bonuses for having no bullying in the school, of course there is incentive to have the principal NOT report these issues.
last year we had a parent helping out on field day/aka super fun day, had been hit with fists by a 4th grade boy, whom also beat the heck out of the p.e teacher.
nothing was done about this either.
take your child else where!!! RUN Close Quote
