School Reviews
1 10/29/2016
The student to teacher ratio is off. There are 24 students in my child's class. The school even sent home a note stating they had gotten a waiver from the state of Texas for the school because there is not supposed to be more than 22 students in the class. And the teacher has favorite kids, obviously not mine, I guess because we're military and not the "in" crowd. I would not recommend this school to anyone. Very disappointed at the "best" Wichita Falls has to offer.
