Central Elementary School

There is a teacher at this school who monitors the children in the hallway in the mornings. She is a bully & singles out children & yells at them. Our child is crying & not wanting to go to school because of her. If it’s not handled I will be filing charges against her for harassment of a minor.

Depending on the teacher you get, some are amazing and really prioritize the kids. Others flat out don’t. If you are able to, ask who is the recommended teacher for the desired grade level and try to request them. Certain staff will not do anything or even see any wrong doing of the teachers if you bring it to their attention. One bad apple ruined it for me

BEST school ever. We transferred our kinder from Westside (TOO big) to Rancho this year (2012-13) and it was the best decision we ever made. The school (small at 300+) is so well thought-out in design, but the the teachers, staff and principal make it simply amazing. They greatly encourage parental involvement, and are a marvel to witness with the children. It seems as if every person who is employed there is 100% thrilled to be there and all seem to LOVE what they are doing...which makes a tremendous difference to the children. My kinder is 'back to normal' by way of being (once again) confident, independent, and is learning FAR more than we could have dreamed. In the KG grades, homework is NOT a huge focus (as it is at Westside w/over 20+pages of homework a WEEK), but flashcards, decodable readers and little projects are the norm. It has been an absolute JOY to us, as parents, to have had our child attend this incredible school. I would HIGHLY recommend it over all others! The principal knows every single child's name in his school...no joke. The calm, serene, comfortable environment seems to be highly conducive to learning...something other schools should absolutely model. :)

We just transferred from FBISD and our daughter absolutely loves her school. Her teachers are welcoming, friendly, and also top notch when it comes to classroom decorum. There is a time and place for learning, fun, socializing, and community engagement. Frontier seems to have this perfectly organized. So few (if any) disciplinary issues by contrast to former experiences where notified almost weekly of a serious event. Curriculum is age appropriate and aligned with the subject matter for our state. As parents, we especially appreciate the collaborative nature between faculty and parents. No friction or debate over who's "in charge". The respect alone is worthy mentioning -- plus it goes both ways. It's easy to tell the other kids are well mannered and respectful too.
