My family is new is this district. Our first impression when we pulled up to the school was a little concerned. It looks like its been years since the school has been updated, but just as we teach our children , never judge a book by its cover. Once we got inside we were greeted by the sincerely caring

I had children who went through this school, and I have worked here as a teacher for several years. I think it was and is the best elementary school in Cedar Hill. The teachers work as a team to help each other and encourage each other. The teachers love what they are doing...teaching children. The

My son has been there since kinder. He will now go into 3rd grade this year. I agree with what some of the parents are saying. Getting written up in the planner for petty stuff like running in PE or talking during lunch is crazy. However I did like all of his teachers thus far. He always had homework

I am disappointed in Plummer. The asst. principal is very helpful in solveing any concerns you may have. However, my son has had 4 teachers since first grade and I can say only 2 teachers took the time to work with him and enhance him. I am a parent that works very hard with my child at home to make

Read more sure homework/extra assignments are completed, but at school the teachers put boy students to the side when they are not behaving properly instead of disciplining them and then assisting them to learn the work they send them to detention to lay their heads down. The daily planners are signed by me every day, and the whole planner is always full of petty stuff like talking, getting out of line, running in gym (what?) and so on. Never anything positive. I would not recommend this school. Read less

I am curious. How can a school have a PTA and have no PTA meeting. I am all too happy to attend any performance. There is no PTA meeting. You can have both. There are parents that care. But I am just as disappointed as I am every year. All of the notes that go out a day before any performance

Which is terrific. Only a few students out of each class are even recognized; only to find that the project was left inside of the locked classroom. The teacher did not bother to show up and the project was locked in the classroom. I could have talked about the situation with admin but it does nothing. Read less

I moved here midsemester and was truly disappointed in this school. There was nothing to challenge my child, and there was no real desire for my parent involvement. When I did get the pass I needed to be able to help, the school told me they had nothing for me to help with. My child has watched movies
