IDEA Ewing Halsell Academy

Never liked it there for my children, but since we have NO choice and live close to it, I had to place them there. Definitely wouldn't recommend this school. Had nothing but negative experiences there with the staff. I do believe the "school system" is becoming way too controlling leaving us parents in awe. I dont remember handing them.custody of my children so I should be able to check them out whenever, allow my child to stay at home if he/she needs to(a days recovery) without a dr.excuse. Sign my name however I see fit. Children being taugh conformity. Each child has a unique talent and the school is set on making robots. Thats all you see in school. Conformity and submissiveness. Do what youre told, or get reported. I want my child to stand out NOT fit in. Teach them how to fend for themselves. Farming, about the financial system, astrology in its full extent. The list goes on and on.

I do not recommend Vestal HISD. My son attended 1st grade here, and our experience was extremely disappointing. The district constantly emphasizes the importance of students attending school every day, yet I received phone calls almost daily about my son’s behavior. Instead of working collaboratively to support him, it often felt like they wanted to push him away.We were even told that he shouldn’t attend field trips because of his behavior, which was heartbreaking for him. To make matters worse, on the last day of school, I received a voicemail informing me that my son had to return to his original campus due to behavior issues. Waiting until the very last day to communicate something that significant was incredibly unprofessional.Families deserve a school district that supports children through challenges rather than making them feel unwelcome. If your child needs extra guidance or behavioral support, I encourage you to carefully consider whether this district is the right fit.It’s also concerning that HISD has received very low educational performance ratings, including a score of 1 in the area you’re referring to. Parents should research school performance and consider districts with stronger academic outcomes and better student support systems before enrolling their children.

IT WAS VERY DISORGANIZED ! TECAHERS WERE YELLING , THE GRASS WAS OVER GROWEN AND THE PICK UP SYSTEM WAS A NIGHTMARE .

Staff is not focused on the kids and disabilities, they are not willing to help parents whos kids having learing disabilities and quick to remove them from the school instead of finding alternative sources for the kids. Do not recommend this school they are only worried about their staff and how they present the school the kids are the last priority. Kids are not robots and every child is different, if you choose to work with children you should be willing to be patient with kids not yelling at them.

Price Elementary is a very good school for children. Principal and Teacher always motivate children to do well all throughout the school year, not only during testing time. Children are always looking forward to going to school. The reason I enjoy having my children attend Price is because it is a good atmosphere and always greet children before and after school. Attention is given to the students from the moment they walk in and parents are greeted as well. One thing that they can improve on is having more activities which involve parents and students.
