I know the school is under new leadership and it's about time. The last principal was absolutely horrible to this community.

My child started here last year as a Pre-kindergarten. I am overall pleased with the school.

My child was in a special education class room at Kleberg, and we hated it. He was always being ignored by the teacher, and so we pulled him out of the school. She is possibly the worst teacher in DISD; every time we went to the classroom, she was on the computer or doing her son's homework for him.

The academic program is generally poor & in particular not taking into consideration of needs of individual kids. In addition, besides occasional gym sessions there are no other extra curricular activity I'm aware of. Motivation of teaching staff I believe is a problem as with most other public schools.
