I agree that this school is bad! I switched schools after one year and couldn't be happier that I did. There are some really good teachers there who unfortunately are stuck at a bad school, with a poor leader (principal) and kids with behavioral issues. Change schools-you'll be glad you did!

My child attends this school and has learned a lot this year. I am pleased with his achievements. I think the teachers are doing a good job but I am concerned about discipline. The staff tries very hard to discipline and send a chart home daily so parents know if their child caused any problems.
... Read more I do believe there are many well behaved children there. It is up to parents to follow up and work with the teachers on discipline. I see the teachers daily speaking briefly with parents in the pickup lines. The think the discipline problems stem from home life. We have decided to change to another school in Plano. Read less

The entire vibe at the school is very negative. It's rare to find a faculty member that doesn't have a scowl on their face. The front office is inexcusable rude and downright hostile, to the point where they don't even acknowledge your presence, if you're unfortunate enough to have to walk in there.
... Read more Every other parent I've talked to says the same. I truly believe this bad behavior has affected the rest of the faculty. I have to go up there today and I am dreading the hostile third degree I'm going to be confronted with when I walk in. It's so bad that I am hoping to transfer my son to another school in the district. Read less

I have mixed feelings for this school. My child is in the advanced class but this is the last year they will have this advanced class. I feel they are putting the advanced kids in the with average kids to help in their behavior problems. Which there are a lot of kids with behavior problems. That is
