Pickwick Park

Horrible school. As an alumni, it is so sad to see how this school has deteriorated. The administration is not concerned about the students’ mental health or their well being.

Struggled to get support for our autistic son, especially once the bullying began. Administration was keen to respond to allegations of bullying but offered little action and few solutions. We changed schools.

When I went here, it was El Desconso Elementary school. I did have teachers who cared, but in a way held me back. Watching my nieces and nephews now in school, I realized how much I was held back.

I taught at this school from 2023-24. It was one of the worst experiences of my entire life. As a teacher, I'm not one to complain about student's behavior. I think these problems are complex and nuanced and treated as such. However, the behavior I experienced by the students was abusive. Students would bully me daily. Teachers told me how they ended up going to HR begging to be transferred. The administration did absolutely nothing. They were very much aware of the problems and failed to protect the teachers. Students were also bullied routinely. It was an epidemic. Special education laws were not followed. Students were not given support. Accommodations were not followed. Procedural issues were not followed. I literally walked out of the job. I just couldn't take it anymore. Never have done that my entire life. Please don't send your children to this school. Not only will they fail to receive an education, but I believe it's legitimately not safe.

I am a former las colinas student. I attended from 2018 to 2021. I had terrible experiences, especially with the staff. I was an a and b student and I turned in all my work on time. this one specific math teacher always had a problem with me. I always had a b in her class from the moment i first came into her class till I left her class. one day I was grading my work and I had gotten a math problem incorrect this teacher proceeded to laugh in my face take my paper and rip it. personally, I believe this is very inappropriate behavior. I ended up telling my parents. my parents contacted the school and they did nothing about it. to this day I believe that this teacher is still working at the school and they have no problem with her. another experience is with a PE teacher. this PE teacher was a male. I had him my seventh grade year. I tried on every single thing we did in PE except for when we would do the mile. in the mile I would get about 13 minutes because I would walk most of it after I finish my mile every single time I would cross the finish line and he would proceed to yell at me and he would tell me that he knew that i wasnt trying my best and i need to try harder so then the next time we do the mile I proceeded to try harder and I ended up getting 12 minutes 30 seconds. mind you the average mile time to pass is 12 minutes and under I know that this is over the time limit, but I tried my best and still wasn’t good enough for him. this clearly was not good enough for him even though I walked about once I ended talking to the principal and I told my parents about it and they had a conversation with him. He apologized to me, but this still continued after. I ended up getting a schedule switch so I got another teacher. Anyways, to sum it up I had a pretty terrible and traumatizing experience and I do not recommend the school.
