Sycamore Elementary School

My name is Sam Perkins. I taught physical education 1990- 1995. What a great school.

Low scores. Look up the school report card on TEA website. It is the lowest score possible. The school needs a new administration. Ms. Cortina has been there for years and she has not been able to improve the school.

My child has been in this school since kindergarten currently now in 3rd grade. We had issues since the fist day we stared ,the teachers have no communication and no control of un behaved students. I was able to witness this situation during online class. Somehow the same un behave students keep been placed in the same class as my child. My child comes home & mentions the same names of this students always having behavioral issues, bullying & harassment to my child & other class mates. I have spoken to teachers , staff and principals, but nothing has changed! There has been points where my kid cries about assisting this school. I really tried giving this school a chance but there is always one thing or another. There is really rude staff they need more professionalism it seems like they hate the job! I don’t feel comfortable leaving my child around this type of adults I can not imagine how they treat our poor kids if they don’t know how to treat parents. As a parent I do not feel welcome there is no activity where parents are able to assist & come see kids participate or have communication with teachers we basically don’t know what really goes on inside this school ! I really do not recommend this school they need to have some changes done! I am currently looking for another school who has better education & communication. If you really care about your children take some time to find a good school! Woodway is not it!!

It’s a good school. My daughter loves the after school program and the Panther bucks they get to spend in the school store. Her teacher seems nice too. Going good so far.

This school is honestly one of the worst environments. A lot of serious issues seem to get swept under the rug instead of being properly addressed. There does not seem to be real safety or accountability here, especially when it comes to allegations involving paras. While teachers are being let go left and right with little explanation, some paras are allowed to remain in the building without proper investigation. On top of that, the vice principal has been very disrespectful in the way staff are spoken to and treated. Overall, the environment feels unprofessional, unfair, and poorly managed.
