"My two kids just started at this school and so far we really like it!! Everyone has been very helpful and caring!! The principal and assistant principals are very involved and very approachable and have told us more than once that if we ever need anything to come to them!! Had some concerns about my oldest son in the first week and the assistant principal (Ms Eliza) was on top of it that same day and she and teachers had it taken care of by the very next day!! Very impressed!! Teachers and all the staff are very involved with all the kids, assemblies every morning to get the kids motivated and give encouragement for the day!! I could keep going but bottomline we are very impressed with the school so far and already feel at home!!"

"LOVE Menchaca Elementary. I have two children in this school. All the teachers have been excellent. Ms. Herrera has been a favorite. Both children love school thanks to her. The principle makes an all out effort to know all of the children. I really appreciate this."

"My daughter is in kindergarten and Ms. Herrera is a great teacher with wonderful, caring, and fun qualities that have developed my child's knowledge way passed my expectations. She does not let them just play all day. She really teaches them skills and academics that keep her class ahead of the usual kindergartener. My daughter loves school because of her and the other teachers. Teachers are so important and Menchaca has proved to me and my neighbors who have children in the school that they deserve a much higher rating than they have currently."

"My son is in kindergarten this year and he loves it! They go to 'specials' each day, such as art, music, and gym. He was here last year in preK and honestly I was second guessing myself. I wasnt sure if this was the right school for him... it is! We love it! The principals are very attentive and involved. The Ast. Principal really connects with the children and make them feel like school is a fun safe place to be."
