Blackland Prairie Elementary School

Great PTA and parental involvement along with terrific teachers and a Wonderful Principal who is loving, caring, kind, but also listens to parents, uses her firm authority when necessary, accepts responsibility for her staff and teachers, and doesn't 'make excuses' or 'pass the buck' if something is wrong. She accepts and tries to work with parental suggestions and encourages open communication and training between all parties (teachers, staff, students, parents, admin). Most of the teachers are Incredible and really give of themselves and truly love the kids and communicate with the parents. They have worked hard to Earn Exemplary rating and deserve it, especially for a large school (~1000+/-)

My daughter attended school at Blackland Prarie for 5 years and loved every single year. It is very crowded though and teachers make the best of it. We loved it there and felt safe, sad to see the new school boundries because my younger daughter will not be attending same school so we have chosen to go private school for both.

The school is good, the administration is highly committed to delivering a good education in a safe environment. Although a 'young' school, it is already over capacity, and the 5th grade teachers have a habit of assigning too much 'busy work' homework projects.

This school is well organized. There is a strong focus on reading and learning throughout. Our teacher is excellent. There are many opportunities for learning in areas of music and art with very good instructors. Parent involvement is excellent.

This is a very good school. The teachers are caring and very knowledgeable. Also, there are several fun activities for families to participate in through out the year. The growth issue is a definite concern. All portables are full and the parking - pick up/drop off is confusing.
