This school lowkey a dictatorship. Just sayin

2024 - 25 was my child's first year at Lake Pointe and I expected a lot more from this school. One of the younger fifth grade teachers seemed to hand out large worksheet packets to the kids everyday and call it a day on teaching. Her instruction time and engagement with the kids was not what it should have been. She also told the students that it took her 3 or 4 tries to pass her teaching exam. She said that to encourage the kids to keep trying when they fail, but it definitely raised concerns about her teaching skills. Several of the 5th grade kids said that the art teacher told them all, as a class, to stop talking to their parents abut what they were doing in art class because she was getting too many complaints from parents about the kids not doing anything in art. I agreed, I didn't see much from art this year either, but after she said that, the kids thought they would get in trouble with her if they talked about it. Big red flag for trying to limit the kids communication with their parents. Finally, on two occasions, we had problems with the Smart Tag system for transportation. My child was put on the bus when I followed all the correct steps to indicate carpool transportation.

Bee Cave Middle School is pretty awesome overall! The teachers are super nice and really care about helping us learn. They make class fun, and there are tons of clubs and sports to join, which is cool! But, like, sometimes there’s a bit of bullying that happens, which kinda stinks. I’ve seen some kids get picked on, and it makes me sad because everyone deserves to feel safe and included. But, honestly, most of the kids here are friendly and just want to have a good time. Plus, we’ve got a great community, and I know if anyone speaks up about bullying, there are people who will help. So, yeah, Bee Cave is a great place to be, even if there are some bumps along the way!
