Read what parents are saying about Charles Borchers Elementary SchoolI recently moved here for work and my daughter seems tel be getting bullied by students and her teacher. Not a very accepting school if you are from a different cultural background.
Posted by a community member on 1/26/2016My children were there for only one year while my husband was on deployment with the military. It was appalling. My children endured constant bullying from other students, and the teachers seemed not to care. The material they were teaching my children was way behind what they were learning at the school they attended on military bases, so my kids were always bored. The teachers and staff barely spoke English, and when they did it was very difficult to understand. Absolutely sub-par. I would never recommend this school to anyone. We only went there because we were staying in that particular district.

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI’m really counting the days for my kid to finish the last year of elementary so my child can try another school and feel better of herself. I just hope her depression diminishes as soon as she gets out of Matias de llano and attends another school. I just hope no other school makes my child feel the way this school injured her in believing in herself and societyParent Review5y ago - Trautmann Elementary School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy son was at Trautmann from kindergarten to fifth grade, and it is a fabulous school. The teachers are caring, the parents are involved, and a sense of community is truly fostered by teachers, administration and staff. Having said that- the parking lot IS a zoo after school. It's the only time you hear people honk in Laredo!Parent Review10y ago - Col Santos Benavides Elementary School

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageVery south Texas strict environment, punishments handed out as negative tokens for things like, asking to go to the bathroom during class, forgetting a pencil in your locker. I also think uniforms are outdated, but are very popular here. Many teachers, especially the ones who have been around a while, are not certified. Parents are not encouraged to come to school for lunch. Just really misses the boat, it really about a controlling environment, instead of *learning*, thinking critically, or engendering a love of learning. Really need a head of school and committee committed to best practices, achievement and nurturing academic and whole child growth. Anyone of any consequence graduate from UDS? Probably not. Need new leadership, better quality teachers, lose the uniforms, and realize a great school is not tied to archaic methods of controlling children.Parent Review10y ago - San Isidro Elementary School
