Capt D Salinas II Elementary School

I am a grandparents helping raise 4 grandchildren. While Mazo was principal the school ran like a tight knit ship in a hurricane. We would see Mazo every day. She would be welcoming kids every morning. Communication between school and parents was open and understood. When the new principal took over, Communication ceased or became less understood. In a year, we still havent seen the principal out and about and have no idea who she is.Latest communication thru DOJO was that students 5th to 8th grade were to bring their lunch in gallon zip lock, (no explanation why). When I took my 3 grandkids 2nd and 3rd grade, I was told they had to use zip locks not lunch boxes. It is not the 1st or 3rd time that communication has been messed up. I enjoy the school, it's small, kids love it. We ate switching because of the distance but the lack of or miscommunication is playing a big part in our decision

It is a joy to teach at Fields Elementary School. Everyone is very helpful and supportive in every way. The students are eager to learn and very respectful. The leadership team is outstanding, receptive, and are top-notch in how they lead the campus. I am grateful to be a part of the Fields Family.

Leaders and teachers give promtp information to parent, using newsletter and class dojo

Feel extremely blessed for my son to be at Thigpen-Zavala. He has been going there for 4 years and we couldn't be any happier. He is excelling in every way with the help of everyone. He gets so much encouragement from the teachers, coaches and so many others. You can see that Mrs Casas, the Principal, plays a very vital role in the success of the students. She is very involved and makes everyone feel welcomed. We have and will continue to choose Thigpen-Zavala!

School doesn’t know how to handle adhd students or special needs. They expect for children to fallow every direction without expecting them to all learn different. If my son isn’t on drugs they complain instead of finding out a solution!
