Lee Elementary School

Tekoa academy provided my son with a good education. Upon graduation he received scholarships with help from Tekoa Academy to attend L.I.T. He received his certificate after after one year. He now member of I B E.W. where he will be paid to continue his training as a line technician.

My school advocates for the students. We seek to educate the whole child, academically, socially and emotionally!

I was a former teacher there. I soon accepted a job as a principal and moved away wanting to better myself and grow. It was great place to work and gain experience. My passion at Travis was for my students. PAISD is as a whole is a very trying district and you have to have the heart for it. REALITY: Students come from many different backgrounds. Behind the scenes, you deal with students who don't want to learn, students who are having a bad day, students who love you one day, and say they hate you the next. You are more than just a teacher so you have to take this and teach/love them all each day with no bias!! The school is very old and needs to be upgraded. There are plans for the school to be rebuilt in the next year or so. Hopefully, this will enhance the growth for areas like technology in order to keep up with a technology based society. You want your child to have the best! It is not the best school in the world, but not the worst.

Tyrrell sets the standard for the rest of our school district by staying ahead and anticipating student needs. One thing for example that they started this year is class dojo app. It is an excellent way to communicate to parents, and parents to communicate with teachers. Looking forward to another amazing year.

Great experience and wonderful for all children. A loving environment that nurtured our future leaders.
