Oaklawn Elementary School

Both of my daughters attend SS Dillow and my oldest is now in 2nd grade. She started here in Pre-K and my youngest started here last year in Pre-K3 and is now in Pre-K and they both have loved their time here. The teachers, staff and most importantly the Principal and Asst. Principal are great leaders! They care so much about every student and their education and they make sure they are doing everything they can to help every student any way they can to succeed!

This school is a hidden gem! The staff is loving and caring! They are so willing to help all students. My child came from another school and I have seen my child excel academically and socially. The Principal is so great and any time I have a concern she is so helpful!

I have been disappointed in Glen Park Elementary the last few years. These kids work so hard all year and with the Covid situation have been confined to being in home to going back to school only to have a horrible field day when other Elementary schools where able to be attend. Also with these kids graduating this is a big accomplishment for them for them to have to virtual I think it’s ridiculous after all they have been through when other Elementary schools have allowed a normal graduation. I’m sad that my now 5th grader will have a memory of a virtual graduation. I also glad she will be leaving this school.

this school is rated as one of the worst in texas, and is in the texas education agency list of school that improvement is required. The student scores are among the worst in the state. The principal does not allow parental or community participation. The teachers do not want to work with this principal another year.
