Lamkin Elementary School

anti-pedagogical behavior by principal and assistants, they should not be able to work with children. They kicked my son out of school like an animal, they didn't give us any explanation and the principal's assistant took his supplies without any excuse.

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.

The staff is so judgmental they whisper instead of helping and attitudes are poor it makes parents feel uncomfortable I actually wanted to take my kids out of this school how I am treated when I go into the office

I’ve had a great first year of kinder with my first daughter. She has enjoyed learning from her teacher, and I’ve seen her growth. Personally, I think everything starts at home. As long as parents are working together with teachers kids will do great in any school. The staff has always been welcoming and helpful. Love our elementary.

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.
