Ben Milam Elementary School

The teachers, principal and staff are fantastic. I highly recommend this school. I wish it were a bit more diverse but overall great experience for my child.

We have been blown away by our experience at Ben Milam, with the principal and staff, and the services provided to our special needs kiddo. We absolutely love how small the school is and that all the teachers call the children by name, not just the children in their classroom. The principal is UNBELIEVABLY gifted and a pleasure to work with!!! In the 3 years we have been on campus, I have never once seen her flustered or unkind to anyone. She is patient, wise, generous with her time, and exceptionally gifted in working with children as well as managing an incredible team of teachers. We moved across town and still drive to this school (even though it is much further away) because of the principal, size of the school, and the heart of the teachers. I just wish there was a way to sing their praises more.

This school is terrible. The staff and its new, unnecessary vice principal are completely unprofessional.

We recently left Ben Milam elementary. This was our first year in public school. From day one there was one problem after another. Mostly issues with the staff members. Lack of leadership.This was by far the worst experience. We moved to uptown thinking that William B. Travis would be our home school.
