Cesar Chavez Elementary School

My son goes to Chavez. He is in the TU program there for his ADHD. He comes home everyday saying that he is bored in class the teachers are mean to him and so are the students. We have notice a lot of very alarming things since he has attended this school. Like the fact that he is not allowed to go out to recess because the teachers are afraid he is going to run. Or this past week was field day which in order for him to be able to attend he had to work hard to control himself. Which he accomplished everyday except for Friday. When he came home Friday he became very upset. He was told he couldn't go to field day because he didn't behave. To me that is singleing him out. Which they have a tendency to do that a lot. The principle is worthless there he isn't involved with the parents unless it involves bring money into the district. Which when I first met him he showed interest in my son because any school my child attends gets paid money from the state along with extra finances from social security to help with the needs of my son. I strongly urge you as a parent to look into this school before allowing your child to attend.

My daughter was diagnosed with Dyslexia. The teachers and staff at Chavez have gone above and beyond to help her. She now has the confidence that she can succeed. That is the greatest gift I believe we as parents and the schools can give our children.

This school does not encourage parent involvement at all. They are also very nonchalant about their safety measures even when a parent has brought it to their attention.

My son was a 3rd grader there last year and we absolutely loved his teacher! The office is very friendly as well, and it seems to be a very clean and updated school with new technology. He will be attending there this year as well.

I have a first grader and we LOVE this school. I just found out he has to move to Zellers next year. I am disappointed because I have been so impressed with Chavez so far. We have had two GREAT teachers and the principal is awesome. We'll be sad to leave.

I think this is a very good school. My son has attended though both kindergarten and first grade and is doing very well. The PTA is active, the parents are involved, the teachers are great. Areas that could be better are in coordinating volunteers and in the administrative area.

So far, I have very happy with the education my daughter is receiving at Chavez Elementary. The school does make an effort to encourage parent involvement and I for one, plan on getting more involved next year when all 3 of my children are attending the same school. I have no complaints.

This school is okay. If you are coming from a really good school to Little Elm ISD, you will be disappointed. Parent involvement is low, I should know I was on the PTA board. They totally teach for the TAKS which is the state standardized testing, that way they can get a great rating, with no regard to a quality, diverse education.

My son is in Kindergarten at this school and I have been very impressed thus far. His teacher goes out of her way to make the children comfortable and the communication is wonderful. My son was very apprehensive about starting school but he absolutely loves going now, and is learning a lot. We couldn't be happier!
