I took a class through the North East Independent School District Continuing Education Program…read more They offer a wide variety of classes on a quarterly basis. They publish a catalog that they'll mail out to you if you ask, or you can stay updated on their website. The course descriptions seem to be accurate, and the class fees include the materials like textbooks. The classes range from language classes, to accounting, to painting, knitting- they offer a wide variety of fun, practical classes. Each teacher I've had so far has been knowledgeable, qualified, clear spoken with a lesson plan and handouts. The classes are held at various locations around town, from high schools to community centers. The signage is generally good. Taking classes here is too cool for school!

I've lived in NEISD for 10 years and Have had 4 kids together go through all 12 grade levels K-12…read more All of my kids had special needs and 3 of them were gifted as well. My kids did not receive the accommodations specified in their 504 regularly, and I didn't receive timely 504 updates. My gifted kids were in GT in SAISD and in Northside ISD, but NEISD decided they could not be in the program because of one test administered on 1 day at the school headquarters. Another failure of NEISD is their lack of care for the less fortunate students and families. There is no affordable after school care or summer programs available. The schools on the wealthier neighborhoods (Stone Oak, etc) have nice new facilities and athletic fields, and the schools that are in less desirable neighborhoods have run down buildings and athletic fields. It's no wonder so many charter schools are becoming popular. It's really disgusting and the district should be ashamed to call themselves public education. It's all about money and politics, apparently.

Safety is not a priority…read more While the curriculum is great the policies and staff seem to be subpar. We've had a few incidences while our child has been attending this school from first grade to third grade. One of which involded a non teacher (Mr. Koonce) photographing and recording students without authorization. On the contrary, we had requested that our child not be in any school photographs, other than the yearbook. However, Mr. Koonce and the school failed to uphold this request as only certain individuals are allowed to use school equipment to take photos and videos of the students for marketing purposes. The outcome of this was that our child was not in any of the photos/videos which we were glad to hear but we do not know if the other parents were informed. We were told that a training was in place to prevent this happening again. As for the second event that is currently taking place. Our child informed us that 3-4 girls ganged up on her to jump her while at recess. The 3 adults that were "watching" over the kids in a very small playground with virtually no obstructions did not notice a group of kids huddled around another. Upon contacting the school Ms. Tamiko informed us after talking to the kids they had concluded only one kick between our kid and another was exchanged. This was different from what our child had said so we pushed for the school to review the camera footage. We were then told that the cameras were for the safety of the building and the school was not able to review that footage. This is infuriating because with that footage, we would be able to get a clear story of what actually took place and who were the culprits and who did what. I want to clarify that me nor my wife wanted to see the footage we wanted it to be reviewed by an admin. We were told this is not possible which makes absolutely no sense because in the event there was a serious crime as a weapon on campus or a child being abducted you would imagine that footage would be reviewed immediately. And rightfully so however it doesn't seem that this school prioritizes the safety of their students whatsoever I understand policy is policy, but when dealing with kids, you would think that the policy would be catered to them. Please consider this before picking this school as there is no guarantee your child is safe nor the teachers are trained adequately.

Castle Hills is a part of our DNA. The superintendent is a man with more enthusiasm, dedication, compassion and commitment to student and family success than anyone I've ever known. Teachers are dedicated. The curriculum is challenging and the family-like environment fosters life-long friends and memories. I should know, I graduated from Castle Hills in 1992 and still have the same best friends from those days. If you want your child to know they are loved by Jesus and are more than just a face in the crowd, try The Christian School at Castle Hills.

Lisa has since retired, but still pops in and remembers our son fondly! Mr. Pinkston, the teachers and support staff are amazing!! We have never seen such kind, caring and knowledgeable professionals! Their attentive approach to students and passion for education has made such an impact! Fast forward 5 years, he continues to thrive in 8th grade with excellent grades and a great group of friends! When we were looking at schools, CHS offered SOARS support which really stood out to us and has been such an amazing tool for our son. I highly recommend an education with CHS, schedule a tour and shadow day, you will be thoroughly impressed

We could not be happier here and am so grateful to have the opportunity to send her to such an excellent school.

SAISD what a great district. I come to pick up my child here at Arnold Elementary. These teachers…read moreare great. Especially Mrs. Vasquez. She has taught my two kids. One is 13 and the other is 6 currently, but they both started elementary with her. That was the best foundation for them. This year she is retiring and it is a shame. It is easy to find good teachers in SAISD. But she was great I'd say she was the best Arnold has had. We will miss you and it was a privilege to have our kids in your class. Arnold is a great school and it always has the parents involved. You can tell once you drop off your child. The principal or the VP are always at the front door to great children. It teaches them to learn to separate from parents and it's time to learn. These kids are treated great and they learn respect.

Everyday when I pick him up I ask him did he eat and how was school. One day I picked him up and he told me he did not eat today and he was hungry.

I'm was in shock and couldn't believe that my son wasn't able to eat like everyone else because he is a bit chubby than other kids. I am so angry! I spoke to the principal at the time which was Mr. Forest. And felt like I got no where. What else can I do?

I don't practice, I don't go unless it's for major events (Easter, Christmas, Weddings, and Funerals), and overall, it's... not my thing. But my parents are very devout practicing Catholics, and while I don't HAVE to, I bring them to mass at St. Matthew's when they are in town, and they absolutely love it. So, this review is on their behalf. Traffic and parking are well directed and managed, and they have many masses to choose from for you to attend. Their church bulletin in and of itself is a novel (according to Mom), and everyone is very polite, respectful, and serene. The church itself is beautiful, and everyone we've heard speak felt genuine. It's an excellent "church away from church" for my parents, and they are always excited to celebrate mass with the congregation at St. Matthew's.
