I had a child graduate from Hutto High School in 2023. She was a part of the marching band program and it was STELLAR! My child is an average learner but was always expected to do her best and to exceed her own expectations. She graduated with a certificate in child guidance that helped her land a job after high school. Her class voted a special needs student as their Homecoming King. It's a true community where kids have gone to school together since kinder.I have a junior at Hutto High School now who takes mostly AP classes and is at the top of her class. Her experience has been the same...do your best and exceed your own expectations. She is in choir and plays golf...both programs are also STELLAR! The new principal this year is very present and sends out weekly notifications and updates. I get reminders both email and text and on my student's progress as well as happenings at the school. I am very pleased that both of my children went to Hutto ISD K-12.

The leadership likes to talk and say all the right things but they don't want to engage with parents when they reach out and just ignore them. Most teachers are rude, lazy and don't care if a students puts in the work or not, they seem them all the same.You can't reason with teachers, they simply ignore you and if you prove them wrong, they will go after your kid. Nothing is done to reward students who put in the work and effort to do well, they are just bunched with the rest. All it takes is one unruly student for the whole group to be disciplined which greatly frustrates those who do want to learn. I will never understand this method of punishing the whole to teach the few a lesson, it has never worked before and will not work now. I thought Hutto ISD would be better than Pflugerville but clearly not the case.My son says the police do random searches of their backpacks, they ask the students to leave the classroom and bring in a K-9. Sounds like a great place to send your kids. Do yourself a favor and enroll your kids in a private school if you can afford it or online academy. My son is thriving since enrolling in Texas Connections Academy, it is more rigorous but they will be better prepared for High School.

I was worried my grand daughter would be held back after we moved to Texas from Oregon. She hated school and was not doing well. She was entering 3rd grade at beginning first grade level. I spoke with the principle, Ms. Patureau and she came in and actually tested my grand daughter herself. She advised that she believed my grand daughter had learning disabilities. The schools in Oregon never even tested her. She recommended more testing and NOT holding her back. After the testing was completed, we went to the school for a meeting to receive the results. I was blown away! When we arrived, there were 11 teachers present to talk about what they tested her for, how they tested her, what the results meant and most importantly, their plan for moving forward to help her succeed. She was diagnosed with dyslexia and dysgraphia. Unbelievable engagement and effort by the exceptional staff at Veterans Hill Elementary. After one year, she tested at mid 2nd grade level, after two years, she is only slightly behind. Additionally, she now loves school and she loves her teachers! She also participates in extra curricular activities like choir, chess club and girl scouts. I am so grateful, thank you to all the staff at Veterans Hill!
