Lomax Elementary School

Lomax is a great school, some of the other comments are unfair. The State dictacts what is taught. The school is required to meet certain testing standards and can't pick & choose what to teacher. The reason your child can't bring a friend to eat lunch with his parent is for safety. I don't want a felon eating with his child to get to sit by child child too, just because the kids are friends - hello this is not a safe world! Why is always the school that fails to communicate? If as a parent you want to be updated & involved, then get involved. I have never a met a teacher or administrator that wasn't happy to answer a call or email. It's easy to say I didn't know. Is it didn't know or didn't care? Lomax is the best elementary in LPISD.

This school is terrible! We just moved here from San Antonio and I am SO disappointed in my choice! This school offers nothing that could help children become exemplary. It ultimately cut and dry and all about the 'state testing'. Everyone knows focusing completely on that, dumbs your child down. These test are simple! Look at scores across Texas, every school is 'exemplary' or 'recognized'. Where is the challenge for my child?? They have ruined these teachers!

I have not had this type of problem with Lomax. I always receive notification of every event in a timely manner. Sometimes, I get several notices depending on what the event is. As far as being treated uncaring, it has been much the opposite for me. The front office staff is always caring and upbeat. If only every office was as helpful as Lomax. The teachers that I have encountered have gone above and beyond for my child. I feel very blessed to be a part of such a wonderful school.

This is a great school. The faculty and staff are very warm and caring for the students. The teachers are always willing to go the extra to give the students what they need to succeed. The office staff is very personable, but also very strict on the safety of the students. You can never get down the hall without checking in with the office first. My child always seems happy when coming home from school and that makes me feel good as a parent.

This school is an excellent school. I have had no problem with communication. Teaches are quick to respond to emails or return phone calls. My son comes home with nothing but wonderful things to say about his day.

This school has a major communication problem. Parents are not kept informed and some of the staff have been rude and uncaring at times. Some teachers are great, some horrible. Its a roll of the dice.

Communication is the problem at this school. There is no communication between the parents and staff and there is no communication between the staff and administration.
