As parent of a 1st grader, our main concerns about this school is the over usage of iPad in the classroom. Daily activities are done on iPads, tests, breaks, etc. Many studies are showing the harm of such devices on the development of children, but Richardson ISD does not seem to pay attention.
Discussing this concern with the teacher showed that this is pushed by Richardson ISD, and the teacher will oppose the parents in order to favor iPad time.
School academics, while praised by a so called 10/10 rating, are very weak (maths are a joke, very low incentive to read and write, etc).
The school is also very rigid - maybe rightfully so due to its massive size - to answer specific requests of level adjustment for better child development.
This is not a good place for strong academics and healthy child development.

Great school! Principal Wilson is creative and effective administrator. She knows all of the children and what there needs are. Teachers are good, many are great! Lots of space for the kids and supportive PTA we have been very happy here with both children. We moved into this neighborhood for this school and it was a great decision - small town in a big city!

We moved into the Prairie Creek Elem school district (Jan. 2013) but were overflowed to Mohawk Elem. His reading has really taken off and his math skills are great! He really likes his teacher (Miss Gaviao) and his classmates so we hesitate to try to get into Prairie Creek next year. Families are very friendly and down to earth and the PTA is great!

For the past several years ( As a dad ), one always has doubt ( in todays world ) about how a school/teachers relate to our children. In the class-room, in the halls, lunch, and recess . Do the teachers do there part in making sure all of the kids feel confident and safe? Well, no school is perfect, I understand and realize that. However I must say that from what I have both heard and witnessed, Mohawk has done an excellent job in all phasis to keep learning fun and to keep our children safe. I hope this effort continues, but have one small request. Keep up the good work and make sure no kids are excluded from any sort of activities that can boost there self-esteem (any age!!). Great job Mohawk, and thank you! So far-----I have to give you guys a thumbs up!!! Signed: A Happy Dad!!

The academics are great and age appropriate. The teachers are hit and miss and the school leadership will do little to help if there is bad chemistry.
