Mason Elementary School

When we first moved here from the east coast (2022) because my husband is in the military, our son was struggling and not coping well with the move. When we enrolled him at Mason he really struggled, but instead of calling and telling me to come get him, they worked with him one on one to help him become comfortable, they would inform me of his bad day at pick up and what they did and reassured me that they are there to help. This year (2023) my son has attended Mason for a full school year and I am beyond impressed and extremely happy with how this school is handling my child’s education! I will also mention my son had a 504 plan at his last school but when we got here they advised to move him to IEP, his teachers and helpers are amazing and said this was his year and has improved tremendously. My boy wakes up everyday literally every single day happy to go to school. They really truly care and are always greeting the kids and parents by first name basis with bright smiles. When bringing up concerns they listen and take it seriously. The only thing I am not used to yet is the lack of updates on his IEP and progress, so you’ll have to reach out but again we came from the east coast where they updated at the end of every single semester. So you’ll have to reach out but they’re response time is QUICK so don’t stress to much. I had a lot of moms on the support pages tell me that Mason was horrible and a bunch of other ugly names, honestly do not listen to them! I seriously highly recommend giving Mason a chance before settling on just others opinions, because you never know. Everyone’s experience is different. My daughter will be attending UTK this next school year (2023-2024) and they already know her by name and welcome her with open arms. She is so excited to go! The principal came up to us and personally told me she recognized our last name on the list for UTK and told us my daughter had been accepted and asked how to properly say her name. The teachers and staff, really seem to love making a connection with every parent and student and genuinely go out of their to. They do hand out homework in kindergarten and it’s honestly the right amount. They also do their best to provide resources for Military children, they also have a military advocate on the campus for children. If you enjoy volunteering this school also provides a lot of opportunities, from field trips to after school activities to just about everything.

The school is so great. A lot of person study very hard. The teacher and student super knowledge

Not a fan of this school at all. Office staff just continues personal conversations when you walk in and choose to greet you on their time. I also find it rude how they speak English to you and turn around to speak Spanish amongst themselves. Teachers are unprofessional and show favoritism. My child has stated on multiple occasions that they just watch videos all day. The principal is a joke. Office never asks for ID when students are checked out. I should’ve listened to my neighbors when they advised us to run far away from this school. Would not recommend.

This school I should not recommend because of some teachers not caring to students. The vice principal was terrible and one of the teachers were a nightmare.

Not good for building the base. I won't recommend this school at all.
