    Updating my son's new school, I ended up withdrawing him from Morningside Elementary School due to…read moreMrs Johnson's back to back negative remarks about my son during his 3-4 weeks time at Morningside. I am surprise nobody from Comal ISD had reach out to me and ask me how is me and my son doing after i decided to withdraw him from this specific school with this specific teacher due to discrimination. My son is half filipino and half black American and as a mother i already knew something is up with his kindergarten teacher here at Morningside Elementary School. Not only she told me my son has to go to a behavioral class and he's so behind from his classmates etc etc he fights other kids he hits them etc etc. So after three weeks of putting up with Mrs Johnson negative notes in my sons notebook everyday for 3-4weeks i decided to withdraw him. 5 months later my 5 year old son is now at a Charter School, Have received the most number of awards such as perfect attendance, demonstrate respectfulness, star reader and a problem solver. And his new teacher always have positive things to say and would work with me and all parents to make sure our kids at my son's new charter school have the best experience in class. So i have always wonder with all the schools my son went to this is the only school that i certainly will say have Demonstrated, Illustrated and Definitely Showed me and my family "how to be discriminated in a public school as a young black and filipino kid". As a prior military who have served the United States Navy for 10 plus years, I do not condone or appreciate this type of institution specially not only i wouldn't get address correctly, it only shows that they do not care about this type of situation. They did try to have me setup a schedule and speak to their school principal once and mind you instead of her showing up to our meeting she send their school counselor because she's too busy doing other things. Which that meeting didn't go end well anyways. As they mentioned over and over is how my son is a bad kid and they don't know what to do with him except send him to a behavioral class. He hits other kids, he doesn't listen, etc etc. he's the only one who does this in my class. Wow this is the only school i must say bring back that PTSD i felt when i was on deployment. You know that feeling they're out to get you, yeah i felt that here. I felt like they were out to get my biracial kid for whatever reason they may have. It would've been a different scenario if my son didn't excel in other schools but like i said this school is the o my school i had this much problem and i'm surprise that the Comal ISD haven't reached out to me and my family and apologize for that teachers unfair treatment, to

    I wanted to take a moment to share an updated perspective on Great Hearts Live Oak. Over time, I've…read morecome to appreciate just how dedicated the staff is. They continue to be supportive, professional, and always willing to communicate with parents. Whether it's through phone calls, emails, or text messages, they make an effort to keep families informed, which is something I really value. The curriculum remains challenging and encourages students to think critically. While there are still some concerns about the lack of specific cultural observances, I do see that the school focuses on deeper discussions about historical events rather than just surface-level recognition. I can respect that approach, even if it's different from what some might expect. One issue that still comes up a lot is the car line. The construction in the area has settled down a bit, but now there's a new challenge--sharing the road with other businesses. It definitely adds another layer of congestion, but I think it's important to acknowledge that a lot of the frustration comes from how we, as parents, handle the process. There are still too many instances of people not paying attention, blocking driveways, or leaving huge gaps in the line, which just makes things worse. If everyone followed the guidelines, it would probably run a lot smoother. The school is still a charter, which means funding is always a challenge. It runs largely on donations and tuition, but not every family contributes equally, which puts extra strain on resources. At the same time, the staff is stretched thin, and I know that makes classroom management tough. It's understandable that some behavior issues might be handled more strictly just because teachers have so much on their plates. One thing I've been thinking about lately is how easy it is for us as parents to rate and critique a school, but I wonder how the school would rate us. A child's education isn't a one-way street where only the school has to be accountable--parents play just as big of a role in making sure their child succeeds. Whether it's supporting teachers, reinforcing expectations at home, or just being mindful of how we contribute to the school community, it's something to consider. Overall, my experience with Great Hearts Live Oak has been positive, even with the challenges. No school is perfect, but I do see the effort they put in, and that matters. I just hope that as a community, we can all recognize that education is a shared responsibility, not just something for the school to carry on its own.
