They seem to be financially challenged, which I think has to do with location based funding... They could be much better if they hold staff accountable, remind teachers to be adults and professional, and leave opinions about politics and religion out of the classroom. Bottom line, this is a better choice than most public schools in the vicinity, probably not the best choice for a classical charter. If location is not a factor for a classical charter, go elsewhere .

The building is falling to pieces and it's a health hazard from FREEZING classrooms, roaches, mold, and broken plumbing that makes a wing of the building smell like a corpse.

Kids are passed through for years with no academic or behavioral support. Horrible.

Their attention to specialized learning for students with dyslexia and similar handicaps was encouraging to see. Teachers have been very friendly and welcoming. My grandchildren are happier than they were at a different Christian school and are excelling here at POPCS. Looking forward to many more years to enjoy this institution as the girls grow up.

Also, this is the only private christian school in north texas to offer something like the Eagle Success center that can really provide academic programs suited for true gifted and talented children (not just academically advanced) as well as programs for learning differences.

As a parent, I will be as honest as I can. We were deciding between Hockaday, Ursuline and a coed…read moreschool. Our daughter got into all three. We ultimately decided on Hockaday because of what we were told by the administration. They left out very important pieces. First, they are again looking for another Head of school. They have a leadership problem for sure. Secondly, the upper school parents are given actual grades only twice a year. Mid year (when it is too late to do anything about 25% of their grades) and the final grade at the end of the year. There is not computer access to test scores or even scheduled parent teacher conferences. You are expected to have your child do all of this with the help of their advisor. Their advisor is a teacher at the school who has to work with all the teachers that the girls do not like. The advisors tell the girls things like "whatever your teacher says, is the final decision." This is in regards to things like what class your child can take next year. If your child has amazing test scores from other schools and on all her standardized tests but this one teacher who has only known your child for months says your kid can't do the work, your child will be demoted. This is true for all Math classes, Science classes and Foreign language classes. The biggest kicker is we are paying over $35,000.00 a year for this school - not our daughter and not the teachers. Hockaday does not see to understand that we are the clients. The teacher shortage also means that the administration supports the teachers who should not be working at a top tier private school. Ask any girl and they will list 5 teachers who everyone dislikes. The administration doesn't care. In fact, they specifically say that the girls can ask for schedule changes for any reason except they don't want the teacher they are assigned. Seems odd they would ever have to put that if all the teachers were as good as they claim. The parents pay more tuition than state colleges but the girls are not allowed to pick their classes or teachers. Think about that for a minute. So how about that epic education? Nope, they have so many days off for holidays and random stuff that the classes are rushed and the girls are stressed more than the boys at their brother school St. Mark's. In fact, St.Marks continues to be in the top 5 for schools nationwide and Hockaday is about 150. I personally think it is because my child was an A student at her other schools but Hockaday is a completely different story. For the first time, my child gets c's. This is in classes like English, History and Spanish. The teachers first will give special privileges to lifer hockaday students because those girls "already know how we do things here at hockaday". Interesting because those are the girls who never score as high as the new students who have to actually have the scores and intelligence to get into Hockaday at High School. Everyone is accepted in Kindergarten - as long as you can pay. The English teachers feel you can only get an A if you see them every day and are their little pet. That is not possible if your child has extra curricular activities for the 3 hours required by coaches every single day. The kids make appointments during their breaks and rarely eat because they use lunch time as a conference time. Yes, all the teachers want you to be in their class constantly. A good teacher, teaches the complete lesson in the time allotted. It's called time management and consideration for other people. Spanish is ridiculously hard. Take Latin or French if you want an A. My best advice is don't be stupid like us and pay $35,000 a year (plus all of the fundraising requests) to a school that will cause your child to not get into an Ivy League or top tier school. Luckily, the college counselors who have never been accepted to an Ivy will give you suggestions like Gettysburg college. Also, they spend a huge portion of their money towards sports. We have all kinds of sports fields going in and not a single reason why we should not take our daughter out of school. Luckily, they have some random woman who requires the girls to spend hours doing things like pretending they are poor, talking about being privileged, and forced community service to whatever is the most humiliating. They have spoken to the girls for hours this month about being stressed. THEY ARE THE ONES STRESSING everyone out. The girls NEED their Y hours to visit teachers and do the 7 pages of homework on the internal organs in Spanish 2 not discussing how the counselors made really bad decisions they regret. Also, we buy the lap tops and everything else. Books are not included in tuition. So add another $600 a year. At this point, I think I will be in AA soon if my kid stays at this school.
