Mcwhorter Elementary School

Overton Elementary went from a D grade level school to a B grade level school. Overton Elementary is doing something right.

My girls have been going to this school for years! I love the faculty and the way they make us feel so welcomed! The teachers are amazing and care deeply for all of the student's education and progress. I receive weekly and monthly notices when my girls have done something great or when they are struggling along with the teacher's plan on how they will help in this area where improvement is needed. I recommend this school to all parents!

I think when it comes to dismissal, depending on the situation, no matter if it’s close to the school getting released if a parent is needing their child immediately I think they should honor what the parent is requesting. Family emergencies come up and there is no way to control it just because you’re gonna be inconvenience for one minute should not affect the student or the students families.

I was a Roscoe Wilson Wrangler and I am happy to say that if your child goes to Roscoe they will be really successful. When I was a Wrangler I was there PreK to 4th grade I really enjoyed my classes and the teachers are super friendly and supportive. I would always and forever recommend this amazing school.

I absolutely love this school. My son has been here since Kindergarten and every year keeps getting better. The Principal shows strong leadership and truly cares for students.

I really do not have any complaints until recently. I'm a parent who works 3 days a week and trying picking up some extra days for additional income and it would greatly help if they will give us the schedules for the month like what they used to do. But these past months they really slacking at it that's why I get surprise most of the time when my son tells me that they have this for this date. I think the school is very disorganized this year. One more thing is I attended my sons recognition yesterday and the principal kept on thanking us parents for coming besides our busy schedule . It would have been better to see our children with those lisd scholar medals being placed on them on stage rather than just being handed to them. Only one teacher did that yesterday but the rest they just handed it to the students together with their certificates.
