School Reviews

I whole heartily agree with this currently April 2018: "CC Mason fosters an atmosphere of bullying and harassment of special needs children while staff turn a blind eye or reprimand victim. Parents are given assurances that don't hold true."The school seemed great for the first two years, but in the past two has fallen back into their previous ways. The environment is out of control. The trouble makers are allowed to run wild with no fear of punishment. Our students teacher, we have been told and I have witnessed, has to take mental health breaks, and is unable to maintain control due to lack of support from leadership. This is very unfortunate given we moved to Leander on the word of friends of how great the school are. Hopefully this is the exception and not the norm for the district.

The staff, principals and active PTO are very involved. The campus is well maintained inside and out.
