Cypress Falls High School

We absolutely love Lamkin Elementary! From day one, we’ve been so impressed with how well the school communicates. We always know what’s going on and feel truly connected. The teachers are caring, patient, and genuinely invested in their students’ success. The staff overall is knowledgeable, professional, and always approachable, which makes such a difference. They also celebrate their students all the time!The administration is incredibly supportive, visible, and they genuinely care about both students and staff. You can feel the positive energy the moment you walk through the doors. They’re now a Capturing Kids’ Hearts Showcase School, too! Our kids absolutely love going to school every day!We feel so lucky to be part of a school community that values learning, kindness, communication, and teaching the whole child as much as this one does. Thank you, Lamkin!

I love this school very much. The principal, teachers, and staff are so friendly and care too much about my kids and parents. Special Education here is the best with the teacher of the year. I refer my friends to this school and they love it too. Highly recommend to everybody.

My child attended Fiest for three years before we decided to withdraw them. Unfortunately, our experience was marked by poor communication from the school. Information was often provided at the last possible moment, if at all, and teachers rarely communicated with us regarding lessons when we inquired.During the first year, the teacher went on leave, and a permanent substitute was assigned to the classroom. We were not given any means to communicate with this new employee. School work wasn't sent home until the last two weeks of school.In the second year, the teacher was a recent graduate. Our child frequently complained about the teacher crying and yelling at students. Despite raising our concerns, no action was taken. The third year was the best of the three, but even then, we were never informed about ways to help our child succeed when we prompted the teachers.Throughout all three years, the teachers seemed more focused on managing misbehaving children rather than supporting students who were eager to learn. I believe this issue is partly due to CFISD's inadequate disciplinary measures. They tend to use group punishments instead of addressing the actual problem children, which undermines the incentive for well-behaved students to continue their good behavior and academic efforts.If you are merely seeking childcare and are not concerned about your child's academic progress, this school may suffice. However, if you are looking for a solid educational foundation for your child's future, I would recommend looking elsewhere.

We love this school. Our children look forward to coming to school every day. The teachers are caring and attentive to our kid's specific learning needs. We love that they are not confined to a classroom all day but enjoy that their teachers hold class or reading time outdoors on beautiful days. Not only that, the community here is the best. All families here agree that we want the best for our children.
