Daughter submitted app in June for Fall enrollment,…read more 1) They mispelled her name entering it into the system placing a 3 week hold, went in to resolve, told us to come in the next week bc only part timers working 2) Spoke with a counselor who had two degrees on the wall, Told her she had to take the TSIA entrance exam, we scheduled it a week out (earliest available), found out the day she went to take it that she was exempt, did receive refund of $20, but was sent to cashier, cashier sent to testing center, testing center took our info but had to talk to manager, we had to follow up. 3) Spoke four times with financial aide to confirm her application, two verified with us they were only waiting for the name change hold, we went in the next week after the hold was taken off and found out the app wasn't fully completed. Started in June, we have one week until classes begin, almost 8 trips and 10 people shrugging shoulders "Sorry"

Ridiculous school, with no sense of reliability, communication, or community whatsoever. Campus is…read moredeserted half the time, and whoever they have working the front desk in advising is rude and disrespectful. Would not choose this campus compared to any lonestar campus whatsoever. The student Engagement program is a scam as well, as well as the honors program. I will compliment whoever is usually in the Trio room, as he is very friendly and such. Overall horrible experience, do not go here.

When the year first started I'd have given this school 1 star. I was looking at other schools and…read moreeven *seriously* considering homeschooling. I did not and still do not like the principal - she seems very plastic to me and usually sporting an expression like she has no idea what's going on but is doing a good job of faking it. The very first day when we were doing things "wrong" she in a very rude tone asked had we been at parent/teacher night before school started and we said no we were out of town. I didn't feel like there was a problem as I had spoken to my son's teacher before the first day. But what anyone neglected to mention was anything about procedures for dropping and picking children up so when the principal spoke to us using terms as if we had any idea what she was referring to it furthered my dislike of her. I have since learned this is her very first year not only at this school but as a principal period. That explained a lot. She's desperately trying to show off her capability but is going about it with too much effort so she looks scattered in anything she does. Parents are allowed to drop kid off in the morning after signing in at the office which includes them scanning your photo ID and being given a sticker with your ID and where you will be printed upon it. But parents are not even allowed into the building in the afternoon for pick up - not even the Pre K or kindergartners for supposed security reasons. Why it's different for the afternoon than morning is anyone's best guess. They are constantly begging for volunteers and cannot seem to figure out why they have so few when they have such a cold, unwelcoming, unfriendly policy for/with the parents. The very first week my 5 year old in his first year was given homework! This shock and astounded me in a very bad way. I even asked my father for confirmation and he agreed that when I was in school we didn't start getting homework until second grade. It's a very tedious "chore" to make a child that young sit and do a worksheet or two a night. I'm still not thrilled with it but there's not much I can do unless I do want to remove him from the public school system. I had problems with his teacher at first. My child had never been in any kind of school environment and I made this very well known to her. The 2nd or 3rd week of school she sent a note home 3 out of 5 days saying my child didn't do his work and would I talk to him about that! That upset me in about 18 different colours! What did she want *me* to do about a problem she was having with my child during *her* time with him. I was not going to punish him or curtail any activities because at age 5 he would have already dismissed anything said to him by her earlier in the day. A meeting was scheduled for myself, his teacher and the counselor. Then hurricane Ike hit! The school was closed for a week and two days. They opened a Wed almost 2 weeks before HISD did though the vast majority of teachers' and students' homes still had no power or water. I still find this lapse inexcusable! How could staff members properly prepare for a day with no water or power? How could parents properly prepare their children for school without power or water. Oh they said it was perfectly okay to not being the kids if there was no power or water on - it would just be excused absences. But now my child has 3 absences on his record that I do not think should be there at all! After the time off from the hurricane when he did get back to school my child suddenly got right into the swing of things and all the skills I'd told them he already possessed came shining through. A meeting was scheduled for me his teacher and the counselor only for a different reason this time. They asked was I okay having him go over to one of the First grade classes for reading and having him nominated for the gifted and talented program after the winter break was over? No I have no problem with that at all. I have since volunteered for the book fair {I got horribly sick too}. And have a much better relationship with his teacher and most of the staff. I am not sure if I will ever warm up to the principal ever.

Very nice school the principal is a wonderful lady she knows everyone including parents by name.the…read morekids love her. All the staff take the time to get to know you kid and make him feel special an welcome.
