I have kids that go to this school. I've never had a problem with the office area. I think the principals are good, but unfortunately a lot of the teachers & staff are not. I think they could careless about the job there suppose to be doing (teaching) .They also think they can do as they please with your kids & push off there personal beliefs on them. I've gotten feed up with CISD.

My son had a disciplinary problem that went on for a long time until one teacher finally told me about it. When I was notified, I stopped the behavior. He was written up for his behavior before I was notified by another teacher. Why didn't someone let me know sooner? If it wasn't for that one teacher concerned for my son's physical well being, I would never have known there was a problem. I was told by the Asst. Principle that if his behavior wasn't stopped, he would have been suspended, but they never let me know there was a problem! Why didn't they tell me in the beginning, or when he was written up the first time? Why keep that from parents?? Why not let parents into the school and classrooms to audit? That would stop a lot of bad behavior. But the admin and teachers don't want us to know what goes on there. WHY?? What are they hiding???

My son attended this school one year and transferred out, it was a bad experience. The principal is unwilling to work with parents and students. Several teachers need to be replaced. Classes were large, and student's poorly behaved.

Teachers don't care for students. Last year my son started K it was a nightmare to say the least. His teacher told me he's a summer baby & he will need held back & just gave up on him. Never sent work home nothing. Tried to badger me into adhd meds. The doctor says he doesn't need them. She then isolated him in a corner so she didn't have to deal with him. His teacher this year isn't much better. Don't send your children here.
