"My son started Kg and since I lived in the neighborhood, decided to send him to Hotchkiss. Things started off rocky with his teacher leaving then the teacher-bonus pay back issue, after that, things settled down. The school hired 2 Kg teachers and both are great teachers (kuddos to hiring them). My son loves his teacher and is on the right education track thanks to her. I will be sad when this year is over-his first grade teacher will have big shoes to fill-but hopefully my 3 yr old daughter will get the same Kg teacher in a couple of years."

"This is my sons first year at this school and it began terribly. My son had a substitute teacher the first day of school and he didn't get a permanent teacher until the 5th week of school. For the first couple of weeks of school they had a system of wristbands that made teachers aware of the students who rode the his after school as well as which bus the students are to ride. I always drop my 5 yr old off as well as pick him up. I went to go pick my son up Thursday of the first week of school and he wasn't there. When I asked a teacher where he was they said they'd put him on the bus. I was beyond upset. They called the bus driver and had him bring my son back to the school. When he got on the bus he had NO"

"This is my child's first year at this school, and will be her last. I feel the leadership and guidance of the pricipal and her staff are nothing short of lacking. We have had to have parent/teacher/principal meetings due to a particular situation, and were met with sarcasm, and a lot of belittling of the problem. I do not recommend this school."

"Despite the abrasive and unpredictable management skills of the principal, the staff at Hotchkiss is completely committed to loving the students. There is a very strong special education program here and the facility is wonderderful! Don't judge the school by the principal"

"Hotchkiss has gone downhill in the past few years with the focus being more on TAKS and behavior than on the love of learning - but still has an amazingly caring staff. Most of whom have been around for the five years my son has attended."
