Dawson Elementary School

Soy mama de 3 hijos que asisten a esta escuela, debo decir que el apoyo que recibo de todo el personal desde la oficina, el director y subdirectora y los maestros es extraordinario y me quedo algo corta con mi descripción. MI hijo de 10 recibió apoyo especial de sus maestras por tener deficit de atencion e hiperactividad, han sido de gran ayuda sus maestras y la subdirectora, mi hija de 7 simplemente esta encantada con su clase de su maestro de 1er grado y mi hija de prek3 va feliz a la escuela y sale con una sonrisa enorme. No me alcanza la vida para agradecerles a cada uno de los que trabajan en Becker por su gran labor. Este ciclo me voy de Becker por que esta lejos de mi nueva casa pero los extrañaremos siempre.

My two daughters attend St. Elmo Elementary. It has a neighborhood feel with very involved teachers. The principal, Mr. Mac is very attentive to any questions or concerns and carries out his vision for improvements to the school promptly. My girls love all of their teachers and look forward to art, music, and PE. The school counselor provides special activities for social and emotional learning that the kids enjoy. Both of my girls are in the ESL Spanish classes, which have been wonderful opportunities to achieve fluency in English and Spanish. If one child needs extra help in an area, it has been provided promptly, and if a child is advanced in another area, the teachers have given the girls extra challenges. We love St. Elmo!

The best school I have ever went to it is crazy I was there for 4 years and now I am 12

We’ve had an amazing experience at Zilker. We love the community events, the Principal is very engaged and seems to care a lot, it’s a great, inviting environment and our student is excited to goto school everyday!The facilities could certainly be newer, but it doesn’t seem to be negatively impacting the experience.

This school is TRASH all across the board!!! If I could give a zero I would!!

Compared to our child's previous private school, St. Austin's academics stand out. We have appreciated the well rounded academics, the incredible electives -- including band and choir, and the school's focus on excellence in all areas.

My stepson is 12, and he is highly functioning autistic. His teachers have not communicated with his family at all about learning to read. It is extremely disgraceful and heartbreaking. They have labeled him a special ed kid, and told us he is not capable of reading. They base this on faulty information, including saying he cannot recognize or write his own name. He does this frequently at home! Their communication with parents is awful! They sent home a letter in February 2026. It said the date was December 15. Their transportation dept is maddening to work with.
