Absolutely horrible school so sad because it was the best school when my older kids went here.

My kids have been attending Key for 5 years and we love it! Any concern I’ve had regarding my kids learning disabilities or problems with other students at school, the principal took care of it quickly. The teachers care and try to provide a comfortable yet effective learning environment.

We are new to Arlington so this was a new school for my children who are in the first grade. I have twins so as usual they were in different classrooms. The teachers were not on the same page when it came down to grading. One teacher said something was okay and the other would completely disagree. That caused a lot of confusion for myself and also my children. I would have to say my daughter's teacher Mrs Wingert was so sweet and really wanted to see her students do well. Now for Martha Herman she is the complete opposite of Mrs. Wingert. I am so glad the school year is over and I can move my kids to a better school where education is important and the teachers actually want the youth to succeed.

Key is a place where you can feel safe when you send your kids to school. The teachers really care. I have had one student for 1 year, another for 2 years, and a third child is finishing his 7th year. They all really like Key. One comment stated the school has no 6th grade and low scores. Actually, that is not this Key Elementary. This school is technically in the city of Dalworthington Gardens and under the Arlington Independent School District in Texas. Key has had either an Exemplary or Recognized rating in all the years my children have attended when the state used those designations. There are academic extracurricular activities such as Math / Science team, fine arts activities such as Tongspiel and choir, in addition to athletic activities such as Runner's Club. The school may not be very large, but that helps give it a family atmosphere.Another poster mentioned the lack of staff in the mornings and afternoons. Actually, there is one teacher assisting students with getting out of cars and safely on the sidewalk before school and after school there are at least 5 teachers doing the same to make sure kids are not getting in and out of cars in the traffic.
