    Parking situation is a bit difficult leaving you to park on the main road. Gym is small and kinda dark.

Hear No Evil*See No Evil*Speak No Evil Hood said he planned on being there a long time, but he's apparently gone already, as so many before him. Could've seen that coming from a million miles away. By the way, Cornerstone had my first review taken down, as I now suspect many other critical reviews have been. Cornerstone has had some amazing people, Mr Harrison, Mr Puente, Mrs Puente (God rest her soul), Mr Hudspeth, Mr Sessions, Coach Navarrete, Mrs Ruvalcaba, and others, but the administration changes constantly! The big secret is, untouchable families, who do whatever they want, whenever they want, however they want; many are athletes and staff from the church and school. Shouldn't be that way, but we experienced it over & over. So, we left. Many others have left for the same reasons. A friend living near the school took their kids out because the administration wouldn't deal with the untouchables harassing their child who's on the spectrum. They told us 3 other families -on-their-street- left also. Cornerstone should be training up a righteous generation, but instead they're just coddling untouchables. Sad... Change must come from the top. We can only hope & pray.

My daughter loved her old school and was quite disappointed when we told her that she was going to a new school. However, after 4 months, she has acclimated well and have nothing but good things to say about her teachers and classmates. She finds the work challenging and exciting. The school has taught her and our family a new way to approach reading. They teach Latin and have poetry wars. They also have an after school program that is an extension to their education and not just babysitting. The after school teachers help with homework and pick up is until 6 pm. They also have after school clubs with nominal charge. What is most important to my family was the school's faculty and their program for kids with special needs. My son was diagnosed with a rare disorder in October, that affected him neurologically. Some of the staff from school and after school program visited him, including Mr. Brogran (assistant headmaster). We love his teacher Mrs. Laird. She is a smart, kind, and loving teacher. She visited him in the hospital twice. My son had missed 2 1/2 months of school from being sick. Ms. Ernest (teacher), has been so patient in teaching him at home. She has been an important part of his education. We drive to school at least an hour twice a day, sometimes longer. We decided to move closer to the school since our kids loved being there.

The faculty does nothing when something serious happens. My child has come home telling me that many children say the n word and many other offensive things but the staff does NOTHING. She would always come home depressed because she had barely any friends and the children would leave her out. I would never send any of my other children here. They have a long way to go. They a very small variety of classes and everyone does the same courses. I want to give them zero starts but that's not possible so l'll give them a 1. New! More ways to react to reviews.

Castle Hills is a part of our DNA. The superintendent is a man with more enthusiasm, dedication, compassion and commitment to student and family success than anyone I've ever known. Teachers are dedicated. The curriculum is challenging and the family-like environment fosters life-long friends and memories. I should know, I graduated from Castle Hills in 1992 and still have the same best friends from those days. If you want your child to know they are loved by Jesus and are more than just a face in the crowd, try The Christian School at Castle Hills.

Lisa has since retired, but still pops in and remembers our son fondly! Mr. Pinkston, the teachers and support staff are amazing!! We have never seen such kind, caring and knowledgeable professionals! Their attentive approach to students and passion for education has made such an impact! Fast forward 5 years, he continues to thrive in 8th grade with excellent grades and a great group of friends! When we were looking at schools, CHS offered SOARS support which really stood out to us and has been such an amazing tool for our son. I highly recommend an education with CHS, schedule a tour and shadow day, you will be thoroughly impressed

Another thing is no response when it comes to issues going on within the school. I've accepted this and although my child has been here 2 years they will no longer be attending IDEA. My child has gotten worse academically since starting here. Also, it's pretty much impossible to get your child on any sport team unless your child has been going to the school for years and years. My child was like a pariah here and wasn't wanted in any sports or afterschool activities. They would tell my child that I'd have to go and apply for the clubs then when I would go they would tell me the child would have to go which made me believe that they just did not want them in there. Think long and hard before bringing your child to this school. Also, if your child isn't perfect As and no issues don't even bother with this school. I don't know what would help to improve because this school needs so much help. Good luck to anybody who chooses this school to send their child to!

They publish a catalog that they'll mail out to you if you ask, or you can stay updated on their website. The course descriptions seem to be accurate, and the class fees include the materials like textbooks. The classes range from language classes, to accounting, to painting, knitting- they offer a wide variety of fun, practical classes. Each teacher I've had so far has been knowledgeable, qualified, clear spoken with a lesson plan and handouts. The classes are held at various locations around town, from high schools to community centers. The signage is generally good. Taking classes here is too cool for school!

    I've lived in NEISD for 10 years and Have had 4 kids together go through all 12 grade levels K-12…read more All of my kids had special needs and 3 of them were gifted as well. My kids did not receive the accommodations specified in their 504 regularly, and I didn't receive timely 504 updates. My gifted kids were in GT in SAISD and in Northside ISD, but NEISD decided they could not be in the program because of one test administered on 1 day at the school headquarters. Another failure of NEISD is their lack of care for the less fortunate students and families. There is no affordable after school care or summer programs available. The schools on the wealthier neighborhoods (Stone Oak, etc) have nice new facilities and athletic fields, and the schools that are in less desirable neighborhoods have run down buildings and athletic fields. It's no wonder so many charter schools are becoming popular. It's really disgusting and the district should be ashamed to call themselves public education. It's all about money and politics, apparently.

    The George Gervin Academy is a local charter school founded by former Spurs player and NBA hall of…read morefame player George Gervin, hence the name, and is run by an administration consisting heavily of his family- his sister Barbara Hawkins is the superintendent, and sister Frances is the CFO. Originally opened as a drop out prevention high school, the school has since expanded to serve PK-12th grades, spanning early childhood, middle school (mostly housed at a separate location) and high school. In addition to core classes, the school has a sports program including basketball, cheer, and soccer teams, and has a new gym facility that hosts basketball and volleyball tournaments. Teachers here, as at other schools, are of all varieties of background and education levels- quite a few possess Masters degrees or in the process of obtaining them, and all staff participate in extensive professional development and training. However, some teachers are better skilled and more experienced than others and it shows in the education and support they provide their students. Don't take this as a mark against this school in particular- you'll find that at any school. Recently, in addition to improving teacher skills through increased professional development and support, the school has also expanded course offerings and electives, particularly at the high school level. All students receive weekly gym and music classes, and they have also recently started an art program. High school students are able to take Spanish or German, and also have a Spurs Silver Dancer as a fine arts/dance teacher as well. Minor things that count against this school is the lack of transparency from administration, inconsistencies between classes and grade levels, and the fact that most grade levels only have one or two teachers- if you have difficulties, there really isn't often an alternative. However, on the bright side, classes are relatively small and the student body is small and feels more like a large family.

The admin yells at teachers for taking time off but admin is absent far more often. The Academy's CEOs don't care about their staff, instead they focus on attendance to get more monies from the government, while ignoring the complaints of teachers.
