3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMost of the staff seems like they are there to collect a check and checked out. You can tell which staff members are invested. Short staffed. UnorganizedWhat happened to the passion and psychology of teaching?Fights breaking out right in front of me and police just watching. No attempt to stop or step in.Drop off and pick up are a disaster with traffic, busses and kids crossing without paying attention.The staff literally looks burned out and over it.PARENTS NEED TO DO BETTER SO OUR EDUCATORS CAN CARE AND HELP YOUR CHILD WITH THE SKILLS THEY NEED . We are in a college town .. do better for your child.Parent Review2y ago - G W Carver Middle

1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe campus is a Texas Title I Priority Schools Grant recipient which means it offers many academic and non-academic opportunities during 2014-2015, 2015-2016, and 2016-2017 school years. The campus is a "turn around" design campus which means a new and highly energized staff works to help every student find success. We consider ourselves to be a good school working to be a "great school." Prospective parents and community partners are encouraged to call and schedule a site visit with student ambassadors.
