Gunter Elementary encorages students to be their very best. There are high expectations of the students but they always step up to the challenge. The teachers are top-notch and genuinely care about each student. Ms. Cohagan leads with structure, discipline and a lot of love and caring.
Mrs. Cohagen has created an environment which encourages parents to work with the students and the teachers to work with the parents. It is common for the parents of 3rd graders to spend 2-3 hours of homework per night, reinforcing the days lessons. Consequently the campus is rated exemplary, as are all of the Gunter schools.
I have two girls in the school; a second grader and kindergartener. We moved from the East this summer. Everyone with whom my daughters have contact have worked hard to make their transition easy for them. Both girls love school and are doing well. I coudn't be happier with this school and the professional staff.
The test scores speak for themselves. My main complaint about this school is the attitude toward parents. The office is at times unprofessional, the receptionist rude. Physical Ed is offered 2 times a week one week, and then 3 times the next week. The principal does a good job keeping an eye on at risk students, but is extremely controlling. The teachers for the most part do a good job, and some do an awesome job. Check for teacher certification.
Gunter elementary is an exemplary rated school with teachers who truly care. The leadership is outstanding and student/teacher ratio is extremely low. Students get outstanding attention.
