10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBoth of my children have gone all the way through Condit. We have a child who is graduating 5th grade this year and are so sad to leave. Condit has caring teachers and a very engaged and wonderful principal. We have been so happy there and will miss it greatly!Parent Review3y ago14 Reviews - Cunningham Elementary School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageDo not I repeat do not enroll your child in this school. They have too many bullies. My 2 sons go to this school and is being bullied every week. But my kids keep getting in trouble for taking up for themselves. This school is racist and needs to be reported.Parent Review3mo ago7 Reviews - Kolter Elementary School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIf you could or want to afford a decent house in this area just for the school, then, think twice. The school is having a lot of student discipline issues; teacher student ratio is higher comparing to the other HISD good schools. Principal refused to hire a music teacher for already over two years. As a language magnet school, there is only one Spanish teacher to teach the entire school (800+) students who picked Spanish as their magnet course.Parent Review3y ago13 Reviews - West University Elementary School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI don’t usually write reviews, but I feel compelled to share how much WUES has done for my children-TLDR: WUES is an outstanding school with a strong community. Whether you value academics, safety, or connection, WUES delivers on all fronts. Academically, WUES is second to none. The teachers and principal are deeply involved, and thanks to generous PTO support, students benefit from learning tools and technology that many schools can’t offer. While the workload is rigorous, students are often better prepared for junior high than even those from top private primary schools.In terms of safety, the school is on the same block as two police departments and a fire station, which offers an unmatched peace of mind.Finally, what truly sets WUES apart for my family is the community. The parent involvement and PTO here is unmatched. Parents and teachers go above and beyond to create meaningful opportunities for kids to connect—whether through afterschool clubs, enrichment programs, or fun events (there's soo many!). The student body is diverse, thanks in part to the school's location, and that diversity is celebrated and embraced. The school also emphasizes character development through a positive behavior program that teaches and rewards kindness and respect. When we first moved to the neighborhood, I was in awe by how polite and respectful the children were—and I truly believe the school plays a big role in shaping that culture.All to say this school is truly a gem.Parent Review11mo ago34 Reviews - Veritas Christian Academy of Houston

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAs an alumni parent, I’m so grateful for the foundation my children received at Veritas. The school prepared them well for high school, both academically and spiritually. Even now, the principles and habits instilled at Veritas continue to serve them well in their academic and personal lives.Other Review1y ago31 Reviews - St. Mark's Episcopal School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIn spite of what they present, STMES is NOT a peer school to St. John's, AOS, and River Oaks Baptist. The administration is not willing to confront issues with the programming and continue to stick their heads in the sand. Instead, they bend to the whims of a few loud parents. The "community" of this school is nothing but a facade for enabling codependent children.The school's mission statement includes the idea of play, but the teachers and administration are not able to see intellectual play as a possibility. This is taken so literally that even in the upper grades, students are rarely given personal responsibility for developing independent thoughts. Rather, the school focuses on creating self-handicapping, immature students who cannot problem-solve or show grit when facing practical and academic challenges. These children are overly reliant on adults to closely monitor and navigate every aspect of their lives, so the children never feel the discomfort of learning a hard lesson. What a shame for these kids when they enter high school and college where their parents' power to save the day will significantly diminish. The academic program here is significantly below grade level even by HISD standards, over 20 years behind modern standards and educational research. On average, students are about 2 years below grade-level. This becomes increasingly apparent in the higher grades with 4th and 5th graders barely able to write simple paragraphs with supporting details and many students who have not mastered basic multiplication facts (generally expected to be fully memorized by the end of 3rd grade in other schools).While the teachers are nice, there are many who do not have teacher certifications and other formal training. This no doubt contributes to the school's issues with adequately preparing students academically.This environment is worst of all for students who are gifted or high achieving. Because nearly 50% of the student population is receiving special education accommodations, teachers are forced to give these students the most attention, leaving more advanced children to read or complete busy work without the benefit of teacher instruction to provide challenges and push their thinking. The large class sizes negatively impact the students with accommodations as well. Because there is no opportunity for reteaching during class nor after school tutorials, students who are absent or need additional support miss their enrichment classes daily.Parent Review1y ago20 Reviews - The Post Oak School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI highly recommend Post Oak. I have had a wonderful experience there with three children across Young Children’s Community, Primary, and Elementary. The teachers are excellent. The way they apply the Montessori method and prepared environment is outstanding. The classroom communities foster an independence, confidence, and creativity in the kids.Parent Review1y ago14 Reviews - Afton Oaks School
