"Four of my children have attended Glen Oaks since 2004 and I have been an active parent. I consider Glen Oaks to be pretty average - not outstanding. There are many issues that I feel have been left unresolved by the principals and have gone without adequate parent communication. There seems to be a lack of administrative presence at the school. Almost all recently hired teachers are brand new to the teaching profession and only a few seem to really care about their students. Due to the high amount of parent involvement at the school, it seems that many teachers there just stop doing their jobs when a parent comes in to volunteer. They just rely on the parents to do too much. When I was a room mom, I was chewed out by a teacher (not even my child's) because she thought our class parents were not working hard enough!"

"My daughters have had a great experience at Glen Oaks. They have wonderful teachers who truly love the children. However, I haven't been very satisfied with the principal in her handling and resolving of situations. She doesn't take action. You go to her with a problem and walk away feeling like you just wasted your time. Many of the parents of Glen Oaks kids feel this way. Despite this, the education here is first rate as well as the p.e., art & music."

"Glen Oaks is a great elementary school. No school is perfect but Glen Oaks tries very hard. The principal at the school is very in tune with the kids and parents are highly involved which really makes this a great working mix for all. There are a number of newer teachers but I think they bring a fresh mix of excitement to the school. This year 5th grade has added a male teacher and my daughter thinks he is great!! The Art's and Music program are fantastic and my kids love the teachers. PE is fun and the kids also get a great work out 3 days a week. This is my daughter's last year at Glen Oaks and I know that she will cherish all the staff and memories 100%. I would rate this school high because it is consistant from year to year!!"

"We were very unhappy at this school. My children were never taught cursive. Like the other mother said, 'Why teach it if it is not on the TAKS test?' Unfortunately, our children are getting a less than average education because of this attitude."
