Harmony Science Academy - Houston NW

I pulled my daughter from Two Dimensions to try out Harmony HSS. As a parent I can honestly say this school is over rated. Harmony has a hard time controlling discipline in this school. Many of the class rooms are over crowded even though they try their best to divide the kids into A-C groups. Because of this many of the teachers I found was giving my daughter grades that belonged to other students beause they were confused. I found during parent teacher conference my child was not the only one going through this. Due to their language barrier, some of teachers and administrative staff is hard to understand. My daughter hated the food they served.

We pulled our children out of the Klein school district, due to a total lack of "teaching" at Frank Elementary, and thought that we would give Harmony a try for 1 year. We have been thrilled with their education. Both of my children have excelled. All of the teachers have been remarkable. I haven't had to deal with the administration much, but it is so nice to have teachers that actually have a PASSION for educating! (something that didn't happen in Klein). My only complaint is that the classroom for my first grader was so cramped. The teacher did her best in the space that she had. This year they have moved the 8th grade to the high school, so hopefully that will free upsome classroom space. We will definitely be returning for the 2011-2012 school year!

The school has its negatives and positives. The administrative staff are not friendly at all, but my daughter's teacher was awesome. The uniform policy is a little to rigid especially for little girls, but all in all my daughter loved the school and had a very positive year.

This is a great school and I would recommend it to anyone. My children excelled at this school because the teachers and staff are dedicated to the students.

My son attended harmony for the first time this year. I was not impress with the school at all. The teachers won't return email for about three to four days and the administration is not the kindness people around. My son will not be attending next year. when compared to private school this school doesn't even make the list but compared to regular public school its better. My son will be attending private school next year.

The admin staff is not the best , I have to admit however I am sending my child there to get educated. I am very pleased with the program there. Children are challenged and pushed to reach their goals. There math and science program is great and I appreciate the challenge they provide to my son. They are also offering a special dyslexia reading program that he is taking advantage off. All in all I am very impressed with the school. Now let them get the admin stuff up to speed and all would be wonderful.

Adminstration staff is horrible,and unorganized. every year they change the uniforms,and the prices. they care more about fundraisers,and not the children education.If you email certain teachers they will not get back to you. They took out getting "D"s on the grading scale.So you immediately get an "F" now. you will get Saturday detention for anything stupid.

I do think the last couple of years the school has been unorganized but now we are getting lots of help from parent helpers and the PTO. My dad even subs at the school. I think this year is better and the years after will be awsome!
