Tanglewood Elementary School

Posted October 30, 2009

This is by far the best public school in Fort Worth! It has been rated exemplary ever since the TEA has mandated tests. Dedicated teachers, excellent administrators, well behaved students and very involved parents are what makes this school a successful one!

I cannot say enough good things about this school. The parents, teachers and administrators are all working together towards the common goal of offering our students the best education possible. The current principal is wonderful and the most child-centered administrator I have ever experienced. Any road-bumps from the administrative changes during the previous year have definitely ended with a positive outcome! The pace for students is fast and challenging. The school continues to evolve with ongoing improvements. The parent involvement is uncommon, and there is plenty of opportunity to volunteer as a much or as little as you want. There is an abundance of good here, and any negatives are bearable considering the benefits. There is a special sense of pride at Tanglewood and still a humble atmosphere which welcomes all!

I have been a parent at Tanglewood for years - (several children). I have seen teachers and administrators come and go from various schools. I have never felt so sad and that an unjust was done, as I do this year. Our administration has been turned up side down. Ms. Ratcliff proved herself last year and all the other years she was here for that matter. She is capable, calm, intelligent, caring, knowledgeable, and obviously knew the school inside and out. Our loss - - - - indeed.

I share the concerns of many of losing our present administration. Too bad Ms. Ratcliff won't be with Tanglewood any longer - she is a kind and intuitive woman with a sincere concern and emotion for our children. I will certainly work with the new administrator but still will never understand the 'God's of Administrator Musical Chairs' that deemed it necessary to move such a respected and strong leader that seemed to fit perfectly at Tanglewood.
