Pecan Valley Elementary School

Since all reviews were around 5-7 years ago I’m making a new one to update anyone that wants to enroll their children here from a high school students pov (point of view) To start off management seems terrible, staff members don’t seem to communicate with each other especially when it comes to problems in the school, the only problems that will be solved is anything emotionally related because the counselor team is amazing if not impressive at their job. The teachers are mostly laid back as long as you do their work, they will still enforce school rules and standards and are very helpful when it comes to needing to solve a problem that your not familiar with. With all that being said you might ask yourself “well that’s odd they started off with saying the staff seemed bad” which for most parents would obviously be concerning as far as teachers, counselors, janitors, school guards, or even the nice people who cook our food it’s great but when it comes to upper management and our (as in the students) higher ups it’s as worse as it can be. We’ve had multiple very concerning and seemingly consistent problems with our school one of the main ones being that their has been multiple WEAPONS brought by students to either look “cool” or to do something awful. On top of that the schools more worried about dress code which is never for all students, I’d consider myself one of the “targeted” that’s being enforced by higher staff members, and with all due respect towards the school they still have students bringing non mesh backpacks, allegedly small weapons and even vapes or even alcohol yet this is nowhere near as concerning towards the school as dress code is for the (targeted) students.If you’ve read all this please reconsider enrolling your child here.Thank you sincerely unhappy unmotivated student

I have been involved with Jubilee Highland Hills for 3 years. I find the school culture warm and inviting. It is a safe place with friendly and caring teachers. They have 5 administrators, 4 PE Coaches, and over 50 teachers. This school is truly a STEAM school with art, music and tech teachers both at the elementary and middle school level. This is the only charter school that I know of that has a Middle School Orchestra. They have winning sports teams (co-ed Flag Football, Volleyball, Basketball, etc.)Parents are welcome at the school. They hav excellent family events such as Grandparents Day, Literacy, Math and STEM nights, a fantastic Fall festival and much more. This is the only school that I know of that has a Trauma Therapy Certified animal ( a beautiful Siberian Husky). Come get a free tour and check it out.

EXCELLENCE!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR LOVE & DEDICATION TO OUR CHILDREN! THEY LOVE & APPRECIATE EVERY ONE OF THE STAFF MEMBERS. KEEP UP THE EXCELLENCE.

This school is average maby above average academically... It lacks black students as well as black staff/ teachers.( But hey... Thats everywhere in San Antonio) Being 1 of 3 Black Fathers I saw every morning I felt very disrespected dropping off my children from this school.. Out of all the hispanic parents walking the halls taking their kids to their classrooms with out sign in name tags on. The same Hispanic principle felt the need to badger me about not having one every morning. Leaving him speechless each time he questioned me because I pointed out that countless hispanics passed him with out name tags and he greeted them with good mornings. He stopped messing wit me after he knew i wasn't gone get a name tag and my attitude only got worse each time he question me. Another thing if anyone wanted to drop off class snacks ect.. during school they don't let you go to your childs class regaurdless of the verification you show. You can before the morning bell with a name tag but not at all during school... messed up rules... they act like they don't want you to catch them slipping around your kids.

i like it , alot foreal there I won't b bored lol

THE SCHOOL PUT MY DAUGHTER ON THE WRONG BUS AND PRINCIPLE DONNA FINCH NEVER APOLOGIZED FOR IT. THE SCHOOL RELEASE MY CHILD TO SOMEONE WHO WAS NOT ON THE LIST AND LAST PRINCIPLE DONNA FINCH GIVES COURTASY TO EMPLOYEES CHILDREN IN THE MORNING BY ALLOWING THEM INSIDE THE SCHOOL BEFORE 7:30 , WHILE OUR KIDS HAVE TO WAIT OUTSIDE THE WALLS OF THE SCHOOL. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD TO THIS SCHOOL .

Principal can’t handle the stress of running the school. Clear favoritism amongst students and parents. Favors the parents that lead the PTO and inadequate facilities or equipment. Please opt out.
