Leadership knows kids and parents by name. Leadership reacts swiftly to concerns about students. Communication is always open.

SOAR principles are awesome! Kids are acknowledged with certificates and celebrated at school-wide assemblies to recognize these qualities

We love this school. The leadership is amazing, open communication and tons of events to involve parents and the community. Love the technology integration, class size, and resources. Happy my kids attend this school.

I have been a part of the PTO, volunteered, and have spent a LOT of time in the school. Ive been able to spend years experiencing on a grander scale of exposure the level of excellence in this school. I am blessed to have my child come here, and look forward to having more pass through these halls in the near future. As someone who has a role that allows me to travel to other schools in the district and see how differences in theory, attitude, and effectiveness play out, I have to admit that I am blessed that my child is here, at THIS school. The teachers collaborate together, the administrators communicate well, the office staff are wonderful gatekeepers, and the teachers genuinely care for my son. Add to it, an amazing, non-political PTO, and I am thrilled!

I'm very unsatisfied with the effort that Ms A 4th grade teacher has put into my childs learning,and following up on agrements on weekly progress reports.She did the reports (Email)2 weeks then stopped.I asked why she stopped.She replied she dont have time?So that tells me she dont have time to teach my child or keep me updated?

My children have been attending this school since it opened. In those 5 years or so, I have been impressed with the outstanding teachers, the devoted and approachable principal, and the overall warm, inclusive feeling at Rice. I would recommend this school without hesitation.
