Joslin Elementary School

This is our third year at Joslin, and we love our neighborhood school! Our teachers are knowledgeable, passionate, and supportive. Mr. Chang is a wonderful, responsive administrator. And the community of Joslin families is great! My child always feels included, and she has made wonderful progress academically and socially in her time at Joslin.

Joslin has been an amazing experience so far. It's a diamond in the rough and a little known secret I wish I could keep to myself. It's a small school with small class sizes and thus it feels like a family. The teachers look out for the kids and families and each other and the families reciprocate with enormous support for the staff and teachers. Both my kids are in the Mandarin language program and we are so impressed and happy with the teachers and lessons. Super lucky to be apart of the Joslin family.

My family transferred to Joslin during the middle of the pandemic, my son hasn't even attended class in person, yet our experience so far has been 100% positive. We felt an instant feeling of community and we were welcomed at the school with open arms. The administration made our transfer feel effortless, which was an added bonus!Principal Chang is a strong leader and really cares about Joslin families.The teachers are dedicated to the students education with a strong focus on social-emotional learning.The PTA is very welcoming and full of dedicated parents and teachers that want to make the school the best it can be. Joslin is the first South Austin school in AISD to offer English, Spanish and Mandarin Language pathways which I think is super unique and a major draw to the school. Joslin is a gem of a school, I encourage you to check it out for yourself!

I would give this school a 5 star rating.
