I have two children at this school since kindergarten and first. The principal is very good as is the counselor. The school nurse are phenomenal! Both children have had health challenges and the staff has been very understanding. I would recommend this school for high achievers and if you have children with health challenges. Beverly has worked very hard at accomodations for the pandemic and the principal has overseen this. These are very challenging times and they have done everything they can to help.

This is a beyond great school. We bought a house in this school district just for the school. My kindergartener is reading at a 2nd grade level and my 2nd grader is reading at a 5th grade level. The teachers far exceeded all my expectations. I believe the schools is ranked the fourth highest school in the state of Texas. Exceptional education!

The staff and leadership at Beverly Elementary is beyond exceptional. I feel privileged that my son has been able to attend this amazing school since kindergarten. He just started 5th grade there this year. Elizabeth Kirby, principal of Beverly Elementary, is a true leader. She sets high standards and expectations for her staff and the children and helps them to succeed. She is dedicated and tireless in her commitment to education. Ms. Kirby hires the best teachers I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. They are passionate about their role in society as educators. I've never had one concern about leaving my son in their care. He loves going to school and has grown tremendously over the years. They also do an amazing job of disciplining when necessary. With a school full of children age 12 and under there's no doubt that there will be children who attend the school who have disciplinary issues. These teachers are consistent and very communicative if/when they are having any issues with my son. Together we have been able to devise plans over the years that work to correct the issues. I applaud these educators!!!

This school seems to teach to standardized testing rather than having a paradigm of teaching the students to learn. A teacher told me that the students even out by 2nd grade. To prepare for the first standardized tests in the 3rd grade, the talented students receive less attention and the lowest performing students received the most attention in order to pass the testing. Very disappointing for a school that "seems" to be good if statistics are to believed.
