10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWhere do I even begin. Pick-up is chaotic and unsafe. On one occasion, my 5- and 6-year-old were allowed to walk across the intersection of Douglas and Mockingbird. By the grace of God, I happened to be at that intersection at the time. When I brought this to the principal’s attention, I was told it was my children’s fault for not following instructions to turn back toward the school. They are five and six years old.How did both children believe their number was called, leave their designated area, walk out the front door, and reach an intersection without any adult stopping them or verifying where they were going? During pick-up there are adults and children everywhere, yet it appears no one truly has oversight of what is happening. This is extremely dangerous.Additionally, the bullying is severe and concerning. My children were the youngest in their classes during our first year at Bradfield, as many students are held back. It raises serious questions about whether this practice is being used to artificially inflate academic scores.Parent Review4mo ago13 Reviews - Hyer Elementary School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI understand it is the first day of school but this pick up line needs to be improved. I was at the front of the line since 2:24pm. No one came out to the vehicles until 3:25pm calling names from the paper. My daughter’s name was called 5 times and she never came out from the walkie talkie. Everyone was getting off, forming a line to get there children while parents in the vehicles were waiting and waiting. 2 separate schools is not going to work and having a carline for 2 schools is not helping either. I didn’t get my child until 3:45. This is ridiculous having stopped traffic for no reason.Parent Review10mo ago6 Reviews - Maple Lawn Elementary School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AveragePlease consider other options. We moved from another district. And to be hones my son is not getting quality education here. He mentioned that everything he learned in 3rd grade is just being teached now. His teacher punishes the whole class for other kids misbehaving. He hates it there...Thankfully he will no longer be attending this school for 5th grade.Parent Review3mo ago5 Reviews - K.B. Polk Center for Academically Talented and Gifted

My son feels happy, safe, and encouraged every day. The school does a wonderful job balancing strong academics with character development and community. We feel very lucky to be part of such a supportive and welcoming environment.Parent Review3mo ago15 Reviews - Providence Christian School Of Texas

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI had a very disappointing experience with Oak Hill Academy, especially considering how strongly the school markets itself as a place for children with speech delays, ADHD, and other learning differences.We came in expecting a supportive and understanding environment, and instead left feeling confused, judged, and honestly a bit shocked.After just a trial day, I was told my child was not invited back — with very little clear explanation. For a school that specializes in children who may need time to adjust, this felt extremely premature and contradictory to what they advertise. Children with communication challenges don’t always show their best on day one — that’s exactly why families seek out schools like this.What was most concerning was the lack of professionalism and communication. When my child was struggling to express something on the playground, I experienced a moment from a staff member that felt dismissive — including an eye roll — rather than supportive or patient. As a parent, that is incredibly unsettling, especially in a school that is supposed to be equipped to handle communication challenges with care and understanding.Instead of guidance or collaboration, I was left with more questions than answers.If this school is truly designed to support children with different learning needs, there should be more patience, clearer communication, and a willingness to work with families — especially on a first visit.Unfortunately, our experience did not reflect the inclusive and supportive environment that is promoted.I would not recommend based on our experience.Parent Review2mo ago12 Reviews
