Barbara Cockrell Elementary School

The staff are not welcoming at this school. This is the first school that I haven't put forth the time nor effort to get involved in because of the staff. The teachers seem to pick at the kids, or atleast at my child. I told the asst. Principle that she should tell her teachers to listen to the kids even if what the kids were saying seemed not that important , next.thing I know, both of my sons.teachers called me on speaker phone attacking me! Not a good school! Also, they are not organized at all for the morning drop off!

Warning this school is racist towards hispanics....you have to be white to have rights! Teachers are snobby and as a parent I don't feel comfortable sending my child to this school.

My child went to this school for two years. Great school! The principal is excellent. My child learned a lot and had fun doing it. Teachers had a good balance between fun and seriousness. The only con that my child mentioned is that in third grade they hardly had recess. I am pleased with the school. This year the school was rated with the highest possible in the state of TX: EXEMPLARY. Way to go Cockrell Cubs!

My daughter was in kindergarten last year - she had the VERY Best teacher - she was strict with the kids in the appropriate way but loved them dearly and treated them all as her own - MRS. V...YOU ROCK! My daughter learned so much and enjoyed every minute of it. Her teacher was very creative and made learning fun!
