Posted by a parent on 8/14/2025I think a teachers job is to create a safe and fun environment for kids to learn. However, my experience was far from that.

Posted by a parent on 8/8/2024Most students in my son's class were bilingual. Unfortunately, he was not and did not understand the students and teacher speaking Spanish. He started calling himself "the sometimes kid". Sometimes he would get a little bit of help but the priority was to teach the kids who spoke Spanish in class. I
Posted by a parent on 10/29/2019Three out of my four children have attended this school.

1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMany of the teachers seemed disengaged and unapproachable, with limited effort to build positive relationships with students. Communication with parents was also inconsistent, making it hard to stay informed about our child’s progress or classroom expectations.The overall atmosphere at the school felt rigid and uninspired. Creativity and individual student needs often appeared to be overlooked in favor of a one-size-fits-all approach.lack of communication about school events and announcements to parents is so unclear .Parent Review11mo ago - Colonies North Elementary School

1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy kids love their teachers Davis and Elizalde and they're learning a lot of new things very easily! They are kind and patient. The only concern is that occasionally my son feels like the teachers don't see other kids being mean to him. My kids are excelling academically and they love and know many members of the school faculty and staff by name. We're very happy with our experience so far!Parent Review2y ago - Locke Hill Elementary School
