Laura Welch Bush Elementary School

We really love this school and are surprised by the low ratings compared to others in the LTISD. I think that may be due the different economic status of the students zone for this school. Regardless, it's a nice campus with very caring teachers. Administration has also been great. My son has special needs and the school has supported him well.

This school failed our child on the basics we should assume every school will do for our kids. The teachers and administration failed to support our child with the necessary supports needed to support their disabilities. Upon attempting to work with the school to address them with a 504 and it not working we were told that everything that was needed wasn't available to them. All along they qualified for an IEP which would address their needs. The teachers and administration failed to keep them safe from verbal and physical abuse from students refusing to address student's behaviors that left our child nowhere to turn. The teachers and administration failed to understand how child development in neurodivergent children is different than neurotypical children which led to our child being excluded from learning time and physical activity.

Special ed program in this school is bad. They take the easy way out. If you are parent with special education child please do research before enrolling. They promise something and eventually put the kids in ICAP. Advice to principal Ms Shelly- Please understand that special needs kids are children who need not be secluded as you think. Please change your mind set as this will jeopardize the school reputation

I love how my daughter received an amazing care, love and freedom at that lovely school. The personal touch , family gatherings and celebrations we experienced over the years are still very dear to our hearts. Till this day, we keep in close touch with families we met. Likeminded people.I always had this feeling of security letting my child go to Blubonnet day after day. I knew that the guidance, values and help she received was priceless and unique.
