The Montessori schools are too far away, but that is the type of independent learning environment our child thrives in.

BEWARE! The teacher in this review is moving to the…read moreWoodlands campus next year. Beware, parents! *slight edit* I was just sent an e mail that this teacher is not at the Woodlands Campus but at Greengate Academy in Spring. I've lost count; this may be my 5th review. SHSU Charter has a way of making poor reviews vanish. My child used to attend SHSU Humble campus and I regret leaving him there as long as I did. My own background is almost 20 years in education as a teacher, trainer, curriculum developer, coach and specialist at both the site and district level. Due to the nature of my positions, I've literally been in 100s of classrooms. Most teachers are good, or at least have potential. It is the rare few that should not even be in the profession. The K/1 teacher at SHSU would fall into this category. First, the teacher was very rude and uncaring most all the year. She constantly ignored everyone and never let us know how our kids were doing. Anytime I tried to have a conversation with her she'd roll her eyes, sigh and basically act like a spoiled teenager. Next, it is NOT TRUE that SHSU charter doesn't do testing. They do MAP testing 3 times a year, weekly reading tests, and unit math tests alongside several science and social studies exams. It is also NOT TRUE that all the teachers are experts with over a decade of experience. While my child really liked the PE and music teachers and I heard positives about some teachers at other sites, the Humble teacher had never worked with a group larger than 8 and was in desperate need of a mentor or possibly a job change. Not once did I get the impression that she liked her job, the students and most certainly not the parents. Possibly she went into teaching thinking it would be easy, and lucky for her; her position was. Working all alone in a class of only 7 far from the main office in Woodlands must have been a dream come true. Nobody was checking in on her so she could do as she pleased, or more specifically, do as little as she pleased. Not working was certainly her motto. She arrived each day 15 minutes before class and left when the kids did. Each day the same 2 girls would get "red cards" for small infractions. As an educational coach I know, if 25% of your class isn't focused the problem isn't the kids, it's the teacher. The teacher became upset/ embarrassed when it was discovered she was playing on her phone rather than working. The kids would sit alone doing piles of worksheets while she sat at her desk much of the day. Due to being found out, she started a "new policy" that no parent was allowed 1 inch in the class without an appointment. I spoke to both the principal and superintendent about this, and they seemed perfectly happy with the idea of parents being cut off from their child's education. They disguised the door policy as being something all the sites were doing in response to gun control, but as I found out from a friend at another site; this policy was only placed at the Humble campus. One day I entered about 6 inches past the doorframe and was treated like gum on the bottom of her shoe. Yelling, screaming, eye-rolling and telling me to get out. She acted like a maniac in front of the class and I realized my child would be better served staying home watching TV than in a class with a lunatic. I pulled my child an hour later and he told me he was so happy and he never wanted to be in a class with a mean, bad teacher again.

I recently attended a Trendsetter Dance competition at Magnolia High School in Texas, so this…read morereview will focus primarily on the school's facilities. The campus was huge, impressively clean, and the cafeteria provided ample seating, accommodating the large number of attendees comfortably. As with many gymnasiums, the bleachers were predictably uncomfortable; at 5'5" and 125 pounds, I found myself sitting at an angle with people bumping from behind and in front to be less than ideal. Why do schools keep doing this? They are as bad as the airline industry. I can only imagine the increased discomfort for taller or larger individuals. Despite this, the overall quality of the facilities surpassed our previous experience at Waltrip High School in Houston - by a MILE. One area for improvement is the women's restroom, which lacked paper towels; the air dryers were insufficient for thoroughly drying hands. On a positive note, parking was plentiful and convenient. It's worth mentioning that the surrounding area offers limited amenities, there are very few stores and restaurants worth mentioning unless you head over to the Woodlands. If you are a vegetarian, you are mostly out of luck in this area of Texas. According to U.S. News & World Report's 2024 Best High Schools Rankings, Magnolia High School is ranked within the top 15% of high schools in Texas and the top third in the greater Houston area. The school serves approximately 2,248 students in grades 9-12. There were lots of award banners prominently displayed in the school. As a science teacher, I would have LOVED to see their chemistry and biology laboratories!
