Communication with this, and just AISD in general, is awful. Everyone tells you a different thing, and to get calls back takes forever. There is just no follow through. It must be bad leadership from the top because it’s across the board. This district has lots of money, so hire more staff, or improve your work culture to retain more employees because your services to students and parents is not good.

What an awful school. Parents I beg you don't let your kid go to this school. Teachers could care less about your education and your mental. The discipline in that school is absolutely ridiculous. Just a "don't do that again" and boom let em go. Chances are if your kid goes there they probably get bullied or are the bully, you don't even know that though because staff won't call the parents and inform parents if there kid is hurting others or being the one who's getting hurt or even both. Same thing with the education, staff won't call parents so parents won't know there kid if failing unless they check a website. If your child goes to this school teach them bullying is not okay at all and make you kid comfortable so they can tell you if there okay or not. Because the school won't teach them any of those things. There was a time I got sa there and me and the kid who sa me where in the office and the principal said "stay away from him" so no suspension? No cops involved? No discipline? Just a slap on the wrist. Brilliant just brilliant. I'm Homeschooled now. Leaving that place felt like finally being able to breathe. I'm much better now. My have motivation to do good in school, making good grades, I'm the most mentally stable person I know. Looking back at when I went to bms I was the complete opposite. I'll never forget this school unfortunately. On a good note I'll know what school my kids will never be going to

The current STAAR rating for this school is an ""F." I was a teacher at this school for many years. I've had a lot of support from principals that were professional and had great leadership qualities. For there to be an improvement in the rating, there must be a change in the current principal at Pillow. The principal talks and treats teachers with disrespect. Teachers did not feel valued and were retaliated against. So for two years in a row there has been a HUGE turnover in the staff. This principal lacks the knowledge and leadership of how to run a school. Parents, teachers, and members of the community have voiced concerns with supervisors but she continues run the school into the ground. It is a shame to see how the school has changed for the worst.
