I had two children at Sam Rayburn during a period of two years. Both had special needs and were in special education and/or team-taught classes, but also some regular classes. We found the teaching to be excellent and the administrators concerned and approachable. As in most middle schools, children need to be instructed by parents on selecting good, safe, peer groups. Our kids were involved in electives and extracurricular activities and chose good peers. They had a wonderful time there and made excellent progress.

My son recently completed his elementary years of which all were spent at Mitchell. We found this to be a challenging yet student centered school. The principal is an outstanding leader for the students, parents, and teachers.

This school does absolutely nothing to prevent bullying, and when someone DOES get bullied, they can’t even pretend to care. Horrible school and horrible administration.

Davila Middle School has several serious issues that need attention. From my experience, the school struggles with things like bullying, lack of teacher support, safety concerns, poor communication, etc.]. These problems make it hard for students to feel comfortable and succeed.The administration should take these concerns more seriously and work on improving student safety, communication, and overall support. Students deserve a school where they feel safe, respected, and able to learn without constant problems.”
