I am currently finishing my last year here, I joined this school in 7th grade. From the experience I learned that bullying is something that is not dealt with correctly here, staff completely dismisses it! And does nothing except talk to the bully’s and hope they stop. Drugs here is also another serious things there has been many kids in Leo this whole year for vaping in buses, in class, in the locker rooms, and most commonly in the bathroom. Unfortunately this school has not been great in my mental health and when I report something going on such as bullying, the bullies get a slap on the wrist and a lollipop on the way out. Bullying and drugs is a serious thing here. I do admit though this school is so much better than my old one. (Cedar park middle school) but still awful. Don’t come here unless you want your mental health to be dismissed completely. I would rather be homeschooled.

Wish they had more extra curricular options for school. Wish they had more lunch options as well. Otherwise okay campus.

My son has been at Akin since Kindergarten. and now he's going into 4th grade. All the teachers have been excellent. My son told me yesterday there is zero bullying at akin and whenever he sees bullying on a TV show, or a YouTube video, he always thinks about having never seen anything like that at Akin. I thought that was really impressive! The teachers work with each kid on what they need, even despite having a class full of children. My child has always felt safe and cared for by his teachers and the other staff (principals, admin, counselor, nurse, etc.), despite having some anxiety issues I always worried about with him being away from us. They really take care of his physical as well as emotional well-being.The only complaint he's had is that he gets bored and feels like the learning is too slow, he feels like he only spends 20 minutes learning and the rest "being bored." That is probably more just a downfall of school in general since it's a class full of children and everyone has to learn all the things each lesson, so I don't blame the school for that, I don't think. It's been a wonderful school for our child, and our youngest one enters Kindergarten there next year and we all think she will love school!
