this school is way overhyped. Most of staff are either really underqualified or burnout by admin. Admin tries to make the place the same way that it used to be, but it just isn’t ever since their leadership has changed. Master students feel forgotten in the ratio that the list is a lie. It is more l
Posted by a student on 12/1/2025This school is deeply disappointing. Far too many teachers are unqualified and incompetent, and some keeps on giving students incorrect instructions in class. It’s frustrating and discouraging that such low standards are tolerated.If you don’t mind spending your time constantly correcting teachers’
Posted by a parent on 9/4/2025Most people here have really bad mental health. I wonder why- maybe because of the workload, unrealistic expectations, poor special education programs, and little to no social life for IB or mainly AP students? Would not recommend unless you are someone who only cares about good grades and are willi

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy kid was having a hard time in his 1st grade class and his teacher excluded him from activities in class and had a meeting set up to tell us he needed to get tested for a mental illness because he was “below average”. When we contacted the school about this, they were extremely disrespectful and dismissive. After that they gave up on my kid. Teachers and staff are absolutely terrible at this school. My kid was not comfortable being in that class.Parent Review4mo ago - Pond Springs Elementary School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe have serious concerns about how this school handles discipline and academics. It strongly feels like our child is being singled out and unfairly targeted, with disproportionately heavy consequences compared to other students. This ongoing pattern has caused significant stress for our child and family.Additionally, the school failed to provide two core high school subjects for approximately 2–3 months, which are essential and tested subjects. During this time, no proper communication was made to parents, and no timely or effective action was taken to address the issue. This lack of transparency and accountability is unacceptable, especially when it directly impacts students’ education and academic progress.We expect fairness, open communication, and responsible leadership from a school. Unfortunately, our experience has fallen far short of those expectations.Parent Review3mo ago
