Clarke Elementary School

Posted July 11, 2008

My 4 kids attended Clarke for 4 years in all grades that the school has, Pre-K thru 3rd grade, one of them attended every grade. The staff is friendly, the teachers are supportive and parents are involved. The CCA (Clarke's version of the PTA) has paid for all the field trips the last 2 school years so that no student is left out. We loved our time at Clarke and miss the staff.

I've been happy with the teachers that my children have had (I have 3 children who have been at Clarke). However, overall, I can't wait for my kids to be at another school. The front office staff is rude and act like it's terrible to help a parent with a question. Everything for the 3rd grade is solely based on the TAKS test. Once the tests are done, the learning/teaching seems to stop.

Caring teachers but administration is not very helpful or concerned. School seems to focus on nothing more than the students passing the TAKS test. There is a talented program for above average students but there is nothing truly advanced about the classes that challenge the students.

I have had three children attend this school. All of my children have been successful regardless of which teacher they had. The school is very aware of the problems that come from a military family and they are great at support for them. I have had some frustration with the front office workers, such as with changing pick-up policies and rudeness. Yet, overall I have no doubt that this school as the children's education as thier first priority.
