Shadow Forest Elementary School

My daughter attended 2 years here. Sad to be moving on, she had a fantastic experience! Riverwood Middle, here she comes!

I like the school, but whoever the woman is who works the front window has a terrible attitude! She is quite rude. She hardly listens to anything being said to her. It's obvious by her respond. My husband and I both have had several bad experiences with her on different occasions. Below is an example of one:This past Monday when my kindergartener had a field trip, there was 2 teachers and one student who popped out the front door facing the parking lot at the last few minutes to load the bus before the 2 buses already loaded with teachers and students left. There was a line of cars parked behind the buses of parents following....Suddenly a single student came out of the doors behind the teachers. However, he was not apart of the field trip. He was a 1st grader. After the door closed, the single student was locked out of the building. He began to look around and then cry. No one noticed. I quickly ran out of my car and began knocking on the bus door to ask where did this child belong. Instead of taking him inside, the teachers in the bus just responded that he was suppose to be in the building. Without hesitation, I took him inside only to be told by the unhappy old woman at the front window that "he knew where he was suppose to be. " Obviously, this poor little 1st grader got a little confused which we all do at times. The reaction of the teachers on the bus as well as the unhappy woman who works the front window is not what I expect to see of people who work at a school setting. It was sad and cold.

The school, from the staff, involved parents, and the students all exemplify excellence. We moved our two boys to Kingwood to be surrounded by a culture that believes it takes a village to raise children to be the best they can be. My boys love the good friends they have made and is very active with extracurricular activities.

I really love this school and my girls love it too. They really take the time e to make sure each student does their best to learn and strive in their grades
