Were so thankful for the entire staff at Kramer. This was the first school my son has attended and rather than being frightened he looks forward to seeing his teachers and friends. I couldnt have chosen a better school!

The homework is blocked in weeks - if your little didn't have a great Tuesday but a wonderful Wednesday it gives you the opportunity to customize the amount of work to your child's needs

If we had the opportunity to interview every teacher in DISD - we would have chosen Mr. G in the Kindergarten Dual Language program!

From programs that give children caught in the day to day business of school being kind, or just doing the right thing, special recognition to the global awards that are given for the attributes of strong character development it is all working

The principal is hands on and highly visible. You can certainly tell the teachers feel supported which is a boon for the children

Fortunately we have not had to maneuver this particular challenge
Posted: October 6, 2018
I have to agree as neither of our children have been victims of bullying
Posted: October 6, 2018
Words cannot say enough how grateful we are to have our children at such a loving, warm school. They are here practically more than they are home and it is important they feel as at home here as they do actually at home.

My daughter is currently in Pre-K at Kramer and it has been fantastic. The Spanish immersion program has been great for her and she loves going to school everyday.

We started at Kramer in kindergarten and have been blessed to have been able to benefit from the amazing growth and success that the students, staff and administration have accomplished. The PTA is incredibly effective, strong and welcoming. It is a family. We love Kramer!!

We started at Kramer when my daughter entered 1st grade and we all immediately became part of the Kramer Colt family. She loved going to school and her teachers we so wonderful. This year we have a pre-K student enrolled and we couldn't be any happier with the school. Parents and teachers work together to make this school such a shining star of DISD and safe learning space for all the kids.

Kramer Elementary has been a beacon of light in Dallas ISD for our family! For the last 4 years, my children has received an exceptional education here in a safe, warm and nurturing environment. I cannot say enough good things about this school, and it is only getting better as they are about to complete the IB Candidacy process. Do not underestimate what this school can offer your kids!

Kramer has been an incredible experience for our entire family. Our daughter is enrolled in the 2-way dual language program, and is learning Spanish without even realizing it by conversing with native Spanish speakers for part of each day. The principle, Mrs Eska, is amazing. She has amazing instincts, background, and the talent to make positive changes throughout the school. There are also lots of opportunities for students to get involved in like: Talented and Gifted Program, an amazing garden program, team sports, robotics, dance, etc. It really is the best we could have hoped for when we decided to trust our neighborhood school to educating our children. I can't say enough good things!

I have been a Kramer parent for the past eight years and it just keeps getting better! Now an IB candidate school (going through authorization next year) just adds to the already successful dual language classrooms. The teachers are phenomenal and are always looking for new ways to engage their students. 2nd - 5th grade classrooms have a set of Kindles so technology can be incorporated into their daily routine. Learning doesn't stop at 3pm. Kramer also offers an after school enrichment program and parent led athletic teams for all grades. The administration, teachers and parents have worked hard to build a strong community. It is definitely in your best interest to take a tour of this neighborhood school before considering private.

Kramer Elementary is an excellent elementary school in the North Dallas area! The teachers, staff, and opportunities at this school are outstanding! In addition to being an IB candidacy school, Kramer has 2-way dual language for grades PK-5. They have several enrichment classes offered such as coding club, chess club, garden club, and Lego robotics!

I have 2 children who have attended Kramer Elementary School since kindergarten! They are both in the 2-way dual language program and becoming fluent in Spanish. My children are active on the math team, athletics, and after school enrichment programs at Kramer Elementary School. The teachers, administrators, and other staff are wonderful! It is great to see so many opportunities for parental involvement on this campus. I highly recommend Kramer Elementary School!

We have a 1rst grader at this school in the dual language program. We've been extremely pleased with the school and it's program. The parent and teachers are engaged. The principal focuses on programs to improve the school. The classrooms have high tech features. The teachers are engaged and dedicated. We have an active PTA which does fund-raising to help the library, classroom tools, special programs such as internet learning tools and Sky ranch for the 5th graders.

Our family has been at Kramer for 6 years now and it has been a very positive experience! The teachers are wonderful and challenge each student to set and reach their individual goals. Many of the faculty hold advanced degrees and go the extra mile to bring creativity and hands-on learning into the classroom. The extra-curricular opportunities for students are amazing~ students can participate in music, art, drama computers, Destination Imagination, strings orchestra and Spanish. The school athletics program is awesome...kids can begin participating on teams in Pre-K! PTA is strong and parents are very involved in supporting the school. Principal has shown great leadership and really cares about the success of the school and the students.
