I enjoyed this school from when I was a student here years ago and after moving back to Andrews a couple of years ago and raising my grandchild (whose friends are sweethearts whenever they visit our home.) During their visits, I heard the friends my grandchild has about the teachers who do not know what they are doing. It is sad to admit that they do not care about their work. Some faculty care about their work, but others only care about their jobs and not their work. I have heard from many in the community and on social media that the administration needs to change. With them, I think that it is just who knows who. Also, I have heard through other sources about bad stuff happening at the high school with teachers and administrators that gets swept under the rug and has been for at least the past 15-20 years with bad apples in coaching positions getting caught. I wish they would focus on the kids and teaching them and not try to cause the school to make the rounds of the news.

This is a horrible school led by horrible administration. The principal lets his personal dislike of people get in the way of being fair and reasonable. He will take out a personal vendetta against an innocent child who has never done anything besides follow the rules, turn in work, and get good grades. The principal allows the "n" word to be shouted up and down the halls which I can only imagine would be a horrible environment for any POC. Almost all of the teachers (I have mostly dealt with honors teachers) are smart and caring and nothing like the horrible principal that's in charge of this school. He cares nothing about academics or getting kids ready for high school or college.

Devonian has to be one of the worst schools in the state of Texas. My son has been bullied both years at the school. The principal like to sweep things under the rug and wait for them to go away. The staffs hardly ever informs the principal of these issues either. NOT a safe or effective school

My 5th grader has three days of detention because my wife handed their phone to them so I could wish a great first day to them before all of the students or class had even began. Just stupidity at its finest! We made a great impression and got them excited to go back when they do not even know why they are getting punished. Huddle up and get this phone issue and all situations or circumstances on when it falls into that play across the board with faculty because you ask someone why or what did they do and have no idea and the next person doesn't know either and so forth.

Unfortunately, Clearfork has created a bad reputation for AISD. I know someone who is like a sibling from another mother who had to fight tooth and nail to get their kid help since their kid has a learning disability. It affects the student, not the faculty, which is why half of them do not care. Clearfork went from the No Child Left Behind mantra to Leave None of the Non-Special Education Students Behind. Not sure about the other schools, but Clearfork is always a pain to deal with, and where a lot of people deal with issues in the community.
