Lone Star High School

Let me start out by saying that I have no problem with the level of teaching at the school. The teachers have been very nice to my daughter and my complaint is not with them. My complaint is with the administration and the school policies. About two week ago my daughter who is in 4th grade was pushed by a boy at recess. They were playing dodgeball, when the boy was put out off the game, he took out his frustration by pushing my daughter off a piece of the equipment and she landed on her back, and slightly hit her head on the concrete. Had she just been pushed a little harder, she could have landed on her head and faced serious injuries. Now originally we had been told she fell by the school, but after speaking to my daughter, I found out that she had been pushed. The next day I went in to see the vice principal who’s name is Amy Gray, she proceeded to tell me that she couldn’t discuss even the penalty the child faced for putting hands on my daughter. No information at all other than to tell me that the child had been punished in accordance with their policies. Here’s the thing though, the kid was in school the very next day! So no meaningful punishment was given at all!I’m outraged as a parent and the fact that this school and district for that matter place the needs of the aggressor above the rights of the victim!

I am a past student from this school (finished 5th grade) and let me tell you something… my experience at this school was not good. I have been bullied and picked on at this school. Although they did okay of handling the situation, I still think they should’ve done a bit more. I also have struggled with an anxiety disorder since the 3rd grade and I was practically ignored by staff. Some teachers I had knew about my anxiety and took precautions, but others didn’t ESPECIALLY the counsellor. I had asked for a 504 plan because I was mentally struggling and the counsellor ignored everything. I visited her office multiple times and asked for the 504 plan and she said the SAME THING. “I just need to ask the teachers.” I had also asked her to email my mom because apparently she needed to do something on her side but guess what… SHE NEVER EMAILED. I asked her for this 504 plan in October 2025. Mind you a 504 plan only takes around 60 days or so to complete but I guess no 504 plan for me.

We have had such a wonderful experience at Eldorado Montessori! When my 3-year-old son first started, he would cry walking in every morning, which of course was heartbreaking as a parent. But the teachers and staff were so patient, kind, and nurturing — they truly made him feel safe and loved. Over time, we saw an incredible transformation. Now, he walks in every morning with confidence, a big smile on his face, and proudly says goodbye to me at the door.Not only has he grown emotionally, but he has also learned so much academically and socially. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed to engage and challenge him, while the warm, caring environment has made him feel completely at home. We are so grateful to the amazing teachers and staff who have poured so much love and care into his early education. Eldorado Montessori has truly been a blessing for our family!
