    Solid school in an excellent district. The teachers are decent from my experience. The lunch menu…read moreis nothing to get excited about and lasts a good 20 minutes before the menu gets old. The students that attend can be really... Well one word can't describe the entire school. There's the wanna-be gangsters who will wanna fight for the smallest reasons. That describes a good 50% to 60% of students. Everybody else is normal. The incident reporting is not great. I see they've attempted efforts at this so I'll give them credit. Band program is excellent. Football is... Interesting. I won't say much because it would discourage future students. The testing is a decent system and I got enough out of it. That is all the rant for now. Best of luck to future students.

    Robin Scott Principal…read more Campus Namesake Sue Wilson Stafford was born in Madill, Oklahoma, in 1946. She graduated from Madill High and Southeastern Oklahoma State University. She began teaching in 1969 in Oklahoma and moved to Frisco ISD in 1979. She has taught at the elementary, middle school and high school levels and served as the district's Migrant Education Coordinator from 1983-1994. She currently teaches students at the alternative program for middle school students and also teaches English as a Second Language and GED preparation classes to adults in the evenings. Her work with students has always extended outside of the classroom and she has worked countless hours for Frisco's youth over the years. She has served on the Frisco Housing Authority Board of Commissioners and the YMCA Board of Directors and she and long-time civil servant Gary Burns founded the Frisco Children's Fund to assist Frisco families in need for over 20 years. A scholarship fund in her honor through the Frisco Education Foundation is supported by the popular annual chili challenge and provides college money for FISD seniors. Sue's commitment to others has garnered her the Frisco Chamber of Commerce Golden Eagle Award (1990) and the Citizen of the Year Award (1998). She is also a lifetime member of the PTA. Sue's mother was a teacher and both of her children, FHS graduates Kari and Brooke, are teachers. Her legacy continues through the successes of other young men she helped raise, as well - Lupe, Javier and Gerardo Gaona have graduated from FHS and have or are completing their college educations at this time. Lupe is already teaching and coaching. There has been no greater advocate or mentor for children in this community than Sue Wilson Stafford and she has no apparent plans for slowing down.

    We started our daughter at Starwood in the Toddler Program right when she turned 18 months and we…read morecouldn't be happier about our decision. The teachers and staff are amazing. So caring, kind and invested in our daughter and her well being. I can't say enough about the two guides in her classroom as well and how nurturing they are and dedicated to her development. I couldn't trust them more! We get regular updates via the story park app on her progress and they are quick to respond if I ever reach out with a question. We are so impressed with her development over the past 3 months. Her vocabulary has skyrocketed as well as her independence at home. The school has so many events parents can participate in and really feel a part of the Montessori journey alongside the student. We immediately felt welcomed and a part of this amazing Starwood Community!

    My son was in the toddler program and is now in the Primary program. As far as we're concerned,…read morehe'll go here through 8th grade. It's a second home for him, where the adults are warm but highly professional and reliable. My son has learned how to care for his environment, for his peers, he's learned how to bake, set a table, share a meal. The faculty is communicative and our son feels so loved by not just his peers and teacher, but everyone there. The school events are always enjoyable and educational. The campus is beautiful and adheres to Montessori above and beyond the 4 other Montessori schools in the area I toured, interviewed, and considered. We trust Starwood wholeheartedly with our son's safety, well-being and education because after 4 years, we absolutely know we can.

    We LOVE this AMAZING School - Our daughter went to Pinnacle Montessori of Frisco when she was 22…read moremonths old. The staff and teacher are super nice. The school is cleaned and well organized. My daughter loves the school and the teachers, especially Ms. Fabi, her class teacher. She has blossomed and learned things I didn't even know she knew and she keeps surprising me with new skills and vocabulary. The Director, Asila, she is very nice and she will work with you on anything. We are glad that we found this AMAZING School.

    I am very disappointed with my experience with this school. I do have a couple of other friends who…read morehave a total of four different children here, their experiences were much more pleasant than mine. As in any school or establishment individual experience is going to be different, depending upon the teacher in classroom in with your child is placed. I picked my child up today only to hear her screaming at him through the door. I arrived early to pick him up. As I approached the classroom door I heard her yelling at him to go to sleep calling him a baby and telling him he needs to go to the baby room since he won't sleep. My son was crying telling her he didn't want to go to the baby room saying "I'm a big boy". This was not a stern or firm teacher voice, this was screaming and berating my son in front of his classmates during their nap time. My son should not have had to go through that, the other children in the class should not have had to hear that. As a former teacher myself this is NO WAY in which to speak to a child, especially for not napping. This "teacher" does not deserve the title and should not be working with children. Once she came to the door, her tone completely changed, she became extremely soft spoken and sweet. The hypocrisy was ridiculous. I mentioned the experience to the front staff as the director of the school was not there. They apologized.
