La escuela es perfecta les recomiendo demasiado esta escuela ya que los profesores y maestras se aseguran de mantener ALOS estudiantes enfocados no son muy estrictos pero son muy divertidos.

This information is outdated. Burrus Elementary, now proudly rated a B+ school, is far from what it used to be. The culture has dramatically shifted, and the results are clear—STAAR scores are even stronger than last year, and students are thriving in a more focused, supportive environment.Under the steady and visionary leadership of Principal Williams, Burrus has made consistent year-over-year progress. The campus feels different—in the best way. Expectations are higher, relationships are stronger, and there’s a renewed sense of pride and purpose in every hallway and classroom.Burrus is no longer the school it once was. It’s a school on the rise—and it shows.

The school no longer supports Montessori methods as of January 2026. Students do HISD worksheets while sitting on the floor during so called Montessori time. Do not recommend as a magnet school anymore. It was good while it lasted.

I don't like Helms elementary school, my child went there for one school year. All they do is speak Spanish. It's supposed to be dual language. They mostly speak Spanish, my child is black, she never wanted to go to school. She said the kids didn't play with her. What really upset me was, they never did any Black History programs, but they did everything the Hispanic people celebrated. I have nothing against Hispanic people or their heritage. They just need to include other races heritage too. Please speak English and Spanish, this is America and English I out language. It's okay to do both equally. To any parents out there, who wants to send your kids here. PLEASE DON'T!!!....

I had two kids attending this school. Both had great learning experience and were prepared for the next challenges. PTO is strong and super involved with the community.

i was recently a student here and its not the best but i had an ok time. some teachers are pretty nice but the bathrooms are horrible. the playgrounds are nice though and they have dedicated sport areas
