Rice Elementary School

I am an upset parent. I was told today that I'm not allowed to walk my impaired daughter to the front door. It's my right as a parent to walk her to the door. What harm am I causing by walking her? Who am I affecting by doing this? Have I caused some damage to school property? No I have not. I am only doing what my right is and that is walking my daughter to the door. Nothing more nothing less. Plus my daughter was hit 2 times first by a boy then by a girl and I was not informed of this until my 4 year old daughter told me and when I told the teacher she said the kids are just getting to know each other. Then my daughter hit those kids and I get a letter about it!? Very unpleasant situation and hoping for the best.

As previously mentioned in another review, they have had a new principal for almost 10 years. However, she can't even speak to the majority of her students because she can't speak Spanish!! Parents used to have a say in their child's education... Not here at Runyan. They don't care what you (as the child's parent) have to say and they definitely do not try to resolve anything. I could go on and on, but my neighbors tried to warn me before we moved in... I should have listened. Conroe ISD is awesome... Not Runyan however!!!

Just finishing up my 2nd and luckily my last child through this school. Its a beautiful school with friendly teachers and staff. But teaching isnt effective enough to prepare the students for the next level and the no homework policies are horrible. Im certain the school is content with allowing the students to underperform.

They do not accommodate students with disabilities.

I attended CCS 2005-2011 (7th-12th grade). This school is isolating if you’re not 100% onboard with their brand of Christianity. Most of the staff care more about nitpicking your personal life as opposed to actually educating students.When I attended Liberty University, I had to take multiple remedial classes to catch up from the lack of education provided by CCS.The staff retention at this school is rife with nepotism. Most of the current young teachers are former students and the older teachers used to be parents of students. It’s clear that CCS will only hire staff that form to the small sect that they’ve created for themselves.If CCS had more facilities, students, extracurriculars, and focus on education, I think it would be a fine/safe school to trust with your children.
