We moved here in 2006 from Los Angeles, Ca.... and we LOVE this school... my daughter who is in 2nd grade now, comes home highly motivated, her spelling words are extremely challenging, and the over all feel is that of a private school.

This school has it down. My children (2 of 3) both read by the time they were in the second nine weeks of Kindergarten. They have systems in place that work. The teachers are all happy to be there, as there is much parental involvement, and they are all well-qualified for the job. We like the diversity

Very fantastic school. Children earn a great education while having fun and making friends. If you have a third grader I recommend Mrs. Vasquez as a teacher. (Formely Miss Cromwell) She provides fun with learning and just a little strictness. A. Eastridge

Park Glen is such an excellent school. My 3rd grader has attended PGE since Kindergarten and he has absolutely flourished. In fact, the entire 3rd grade class for the 2003-2004 school year has done awesome. Not one child, out of 7 3rd grade classrooms, failed the TAKS tests that were given in April.

Parent involvement is key to Park Glen's success. Our principal, Carol Wicker, is such an asset to the school. She is involved in everything and is very visible, from helping students out of their cars for morning drop-offs to taking a pie in the face for a PTA activity. I absolutely love this school and will be sad when my son has to leave at the end of the next school year. Read less

Excellent school with caring teachers. Both of my children have received a 'private' school education at a public school. This school goes far above the state-mandated minimum educational requirements. Parents are encouraged to participate in school-life on a daily basis. Safe suburban neighborhood
