Poor staff. This is the school where I was told in a one on one meeting with the principal that " timeliness is not important, and that she (Stephanie King) doesn't mind if a student is 20 minutes late every day. I found her lack lackadaisical attitude about my children's attendance and homework habits to be absolutely mind numbing. I have to question her ability to effectively perform in such a critical leadership role. My children will not be returning next year.

Very family oriented, child-friendly school. I was nervous to move from Pearland to this district but surprisingly favor this one much more! We're doing events with the kids monthly!

The teachers, staff and administrators at this school are dedicated, knowledgeable and extremely caring. They have exposed our child to so many wonderful learning experiences. Their fine arts program is excellent. The school consistently sponsors activities for family members to attend. Our child continues to excel.

The teachers are warm and caring. They have been structured but work to make it a fun learning environment for the kids. The principal is always visible, friendly and approachable. We love this school!

My daughter is 4 and studied in Ms. Terrys speech class last year and LOVED it! My son starts Kindergarten there this fall and we are VERY excited. The staff was wonderful and the speech program is top notch!

It is important to not just rely only on the school for your child's success. As a parent it is our job to be actively participating in our child's success. . It is easier to throw everything back on the school then to hold ourselves as parents accountable. As a parent and a previous educator I have seen both sides of the spectrum. There are around 20 plus kids in a class. As much as a teacher would like to, they can't devote all their time to one child because there are 20 other kids needs that are not being met. The reasons test scores are pushed so much is because in some grades students can't go on to the next grade if they haven't met the standard. Parents need to judge their own child's growth and understand that it isn't something that happens over night. It takes time. Before you point the finger at someone else, as a parent it is important to ask what we are doing to help out child be successful. Being an advocate for your child is only part of it. Don't be your child's crutch, let them learn to stand on their two feet. If the grass was truly greener on the other side life would be pure utopia.

This School caters to their best students. Unfortunately if your child has any learning disability this is not the school for them. My son was not given the tools to succeed by this school until I got involved. They don't care about all of their students equally. They definitely know how to keep their task scores up but when it comes to helping any child with dyslexia and other learning disabilities they don't really care. Everything I have learned that is available for my son has at some point been promised and not followed through. They honestly do not care about my child, I am currently looking into other schools because this school has basically set my son up for failure. Also the office staff is rude, not just to me but to other parents I have spoken to. Once you voice a concern about your child they will completely deny your parental rights, and if your child has any type of learning disability be prepared to fight for his/her rights because they are understaffed and will not help your child. Very sad but very true, I have never been more disappointed in a school system in my life.

Both of our children attended Hall and all I can say is WOW, this is an incredible school. Our oldest split time between a private school and Hall and I would say that they better time was spent at Hall, academically and socially.
