My son started kindergarten this year and so far I'm happy with the faculty members. I drop him off…read morein the cafeteria for breakfast every morning and the principal is always there to greet the children as they arrive. Their is always staff there in the morning to help the children find what they need. I've only came to the cafeteria once while the children were having lunch the cafeteria ladies walking around seem not to have much patience when it comes to the kids that would be my only concern. I love knowing when they have events for the kids and they do a good job sending kids home with flyer's( my son comes home excited to get involved with school events). We were very lucky when it came to his kindergarten teacher shes great.

This school has, by far, been the school which has managed to touch and change my daughter like…read morenone has ever been able to. When someone thinks of what the mission for an educational establishment should be: this school embodies it fully. Everyone, from the janitor to the principal has got one primary goal: making young minds thrive and enthusiastic about knowledge and learning. Mr Newton (the wonderful principal of this great school) truly loves each and every single one of the students that cross the school's halls every day. He has ZERO tollerance for bullying and just as strongly believes that good behavior should be noted and encouraged. As far as teachers go... my daughter has been nurtured, and made to bloom by the most amazing and caring teacher i have ever know: Mrs. Abila. She has managed to turn a shy and afraid little girl who NEVER raised her hand or asked questions, into a strong and confident little woman. To these people i say THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart!!!

This school is a gem for the city of Abilene. My granddaughter has been attending St John's since…read morepre K. She is now in second grade and has just thrived there. She learned to read virtually overnight; however, what I have really noticed is how polite and kind she is to everyone. She is learning far more than the "three R's" at St John's. I live out of town and recently visited my family in Abilene. I went to chapel at St John's and then spent a few minutes visiting my granddaughter's class and a third grade class, taught by my daughter, who recently left public school teaching. I am a former teacher; my sister is a teacher. I had two aunts who were teachers, so I believe I can objectively say: St John's is a very special school.

3 of my kids go to Wylie Highschool, the other day there was a tar leak, causing my kids to get…read moresick and have headaches. Instead of them sending the kids home, their school principal made an announcement saying that there is nothing they can do and went back to doing classes as normal. Tar smells just like gasoline because, they are both petroleum based products, which is know to make people extreme sick by inhaling the fumes!!!! How can I feel like my kids are safe when they are inhaling toxic fumes and getting physically sick at their own school!!! Who's gonna protect the kids if their own principal isn't!!!

I think those people are thinking of the Wylie school district in Wylie Texas not Abilene Texas. My…read morekids have been going to Wylie ISD in Abilene Texas for four years now and I've never heard of any racism we love the school district the teachers are great it's a great area. Very proud.
