In my 14 years of teaching, I have never taught at a better school. The entire staff is awesome and the Principal is a true leader. He has earned the respect of students, parents and teachers.

My Son is attending Barbara Bush and is a Boundary exception. We wanted to attend this amazing school! Principal Brian Corte is AMAZING , he knows every child by name! Very involved with the kids on a daily basis! The staff is wonderful, the cirriculum is TOP NOTCH, with Excellent Teachers! We are in boundary for Red Mountain Ranch Elementary- but Barbara Bush Elementary school is FAR Superior in every way! Night and day difference! We look forward to 5 more wonderful years of education at Barbara Bush Elementary school!

My daughter has been attending this school for her kindergarten year. She loves her teachers and the teacher's aide. The teachers have been very professional, helpful, and responsive to any issues that arise. The principal is nice and involved with the children. The PTO has many activities planned throughout the year (I'm not in the PTO), and gives opportunities for parents who are not in the PTO to volunteer and participate (Fall Festival was so much fun!). The only complaint I have is the front desk secretary who can be a little snooty. Everytime I speak with her, it's like I'm inconveniencing her. Otherwise, everyone else that I come into contact with greets me with a welcoming smile. My daughter loves it there, and she is definitely prepared for 1st grade! Two thumbs up.

We've been at Bush for 3 years and love it! We are out-of-district and are willing to drive there daily as it's worth it compared to other elementary schools nearby. We find the teachers very caring and they keep us informed on all academic and activities that are occurring. We can send email questions to the teachers and receive answers back the same day, sometimes within hours. We have access to all their reading, grade, and test reports quickly. My dealings with Mr. Corte, principal, have always been very fair and informative. He knows every kid in the school by name and greets all the parents when he sees them. He is a great disciplinarian who does not tolerate any bullying or teasing. The school has lost 200 kids in last few years causing teacher reassignments, budget cuts, and resource shortages, like many other districts, and they are doing great job!
