Palmer Elementary School

This is an excellent school. With a very caring hands-on principal, this school has a team of good faculty who invest above average focus on the students. There were times when I was not happy about a classroom issue and addressed it with the principals. They were prompt and incredibly caring before providing resolution. Are there teachers there that are below average? Honestly, a very few as with any place. But they are surrounded by great teachers who are effective getting students to grasp their lesson. If a teacher couldn't deliver the results a child needed, the principal allowed options to meet the parent and child on common ground based on needs assessed. All of my children did well at Palmer over the years. Unfortunately, the pandemic forced us to make the decision to home school. So, the last child was unenrolled. And the administration handled the unenrollment process with great empathy and understanding that many of my online fellow homeschool parents did not experience unenrolling theirs at other schools in other cities/states. Hearing others' experience in other places during this difficult time makes me realize how Palmer has been that diamond in the rough that we were blessed to experience for all our children.

Kids love this school. The administration knows most kids and parents by name and it feels like family. Test scores are increasing and I hope it continues.

Both of my children are students at Palmer. One of my boys has severe ADHD and I was very concerned about him being successful. The staff at Palmer communicated well with me regarding my son's needs and what they planned to do to help him.They also took into consideration which teachers would be better for him each year. My youngest has had a great time as well. The teachers are very involved and are great with communication. I love the new principal and also miss the old one. I have to say I'm very happy.

I'm a teacher at another school and have relatives children that have attended this school in the past and am very shocked that this school continuously allows known racists teachers to work in there school system. I've attended some events and have observed this behavior and well as read the continuos negative comments sent home by some of there staff. They should really consider conducting and undercover investigation on there staff members starting with there lead kindergarten teacher and work there way up.

I was a Palmer student in the early 90's. After moving to San Diego post high school graduation I finally moved back to Missouri City where my oldest son now goes to Palmer. He has severe ADHD and the school was immediately accommodating. The staff pulled together quickly to give my son the best plan possible. His teacher and resource teacher work VERY hard and I have seen such great success!!! The reason I chose Palmer was my brother had severe ADHD and dyslexia and he also went to Palmer in the early 90's. They worked very well with him and I knew that over the years it could have only gotten better. Palmer teachers care greatly about their students and the teachers are very effective with communicating with parents. I LOVE THIS SCHOOL they have done wonders for my son!!!
