Such a bummer they missed Exemplary status last year. But they're working hard to get it back. We love the teachers and family feeling we get when we are there. Our daughter has autism (moderate) and is in 1st grade and has done great. She is mainstreamed with help half of the day. The other half she is with her autism class (for the subjects she struggles with). Everyone from the bus drivers to the aides to the principals are welcoming and kind, and it is clear that the priority is my daughter's educational goals in order for her to live independently someday! BTW, the kids here are awesome. I was so worried they might bully her or make fun. But they LOVE to help her! They talk about what they do with her whenever I am up there. It is a very caring environment!

I have to agree with the military parent who commented that the office staff is rude. One woman in particular ( tall blonde) always acts as if I am getting in her way when I come into the office. Isn't that her job?? I would assume so since she sits at a desk behind the counter. My son had a great teacher 3 out of the 4 years he has been here.

Raba ROCKS! We have our daughter, who is special needs, enrolled at Raba. In fact, we moved to our neighborhood because of the great things we had heard from other parents. The office staff is terrific, but really, it starts at the top--the principal, Ms. Trevino and the assistant principal, Mr. Kuenning, obviously care about all the kids there and love what they do. Mr. Kuenning (who himself has a special education teaching background) has personally sat in on my daughter's ARDs and has been 100% supportive of her needs. Her teachers are amazing. She has blossomed in the past year and a half. I can't help it--I love Raba!

My spouse and I are in the military and we were looking around for schools before buying a place. Came by to inquire about enrolling my son for kindergarten and the people in the administration office were rude. They were short and looked annoyed by us. Needless to say we did not move aound that area.

Absolutely an incredible school. By far better than Westcreek or others in the area, we moved just to get our kids into this school system. Everybody cares at Raba!

I have a son and he's in special needs, I used to have him on a different school (cable elementary) and there he didn't learn a thing, he has a speech delay and now that he's in Raba elementary he's made a huge improvement. I love the way the teachers treat my son (like every other kid and not a kid with disabilities). I'm satisfied with the improvement he's made, plus he loves going to school so that says something.

Raba is a wonderful school! The teachers are super! They are enthusiastic and challenge the students to do their best. The administrators are great! They positively encourage the students as well. I am so thankful for Raba Elementary and the difference it has made in my daughter's life. We are truly blessed to have such a fine school!
