Beaver Technology Center Reviews

 
I have two kids that go to Beaver. I love the school and the teachers. One thing that I liked is that the school offered Saturday shcool (free of charge) to help the kids pass the TAKS Test. Most elem. schools do not offer that. I also like the diversity in the school.

Still love Beaver! I have never had a problem getting through the car pool line in an efficient manner. However, the bus situation is so well handled that my children often ride the bus. Their driver is great and the other kids either attend Beaver or Walnut Glen and are nice kids. I want to mention a couple of things... Beaver Technology Center was honored in San Antonio on February 19th, along with other schools from across the country, for being a National Title I Distinguished School, which was awarded to only 57 school in the nation and only 2 in Texas. Also, Beaver, has been named to the Texas Education and Business Coalition list of honor roll schools. Beaver has great teachers, involved parents and motivated students. The PTA is a team effort and both teachers and parents are enthusiastic in their participation.

I disagree with the comment about dismissal. We dismiss at 3:10, and by 3:30 the front pick-up area is empty. We move approximately 250 cars through in 20 minutes. It does not take 30-40 minutes for student pickup. Six cars are loaded simultaneously, and the line moves quickly. Visitors to the building often comment on the efficiency of our dismissal procedures. We do not use the passing lane because of the obvious danger to children walking between cars.

I'm a single parent and did not have a idea were to start looking for my son far as a elementary school because this was all new to me. But with help of friends and the web I was able to find Beaver and what a wonderful choice my son has been attending Beaver for two years now his progress of learning is excellent so far. Wonderful teachers, excellent attitudes and very caring staff.

This is a great school as far as teacher and learning which is what we should care about most. However, some other areas aren't so great. The school is small and crowded. There is basically no parking for school events so you get ready for a walk from down the street. The absolute worst thing about the school is the length of time it takes to get your child after school. They have two lines they could use but they use one only and call each child one at a time. It can literally take 30 to 40 minutes of waiting to get your child even if you are 15 minutes early. I have been to many schools and Beaver is the worst by far when it comes to this issue. If you have 2 children in different schools then you have no choice but to pick the child up at Beaver last or you will be way late for the other child. Again, they have 2 lanes (after the bus leaves) and they don t take advantage of the 2nd lane. Considering the long line I would think that they would address this.

I have to disagree with the negative comment on parent involvement at Beaver Technology Center. Every parent is welcomed and enouraged to participate and be involved in their student's progress and each activity. There is not a school in Garland ISD with such a welcoming spirit as soon as walk into the doors. It is like having an extended family.

Although I do beleive is a good school. It is not GREAT...There are so many things that Beaver does not do for parents that other schools do. Parent involvement is there at a 50 percent. Not all parents are treated equally, PTA involved parents have a priority.

My daughter has attended Beaver Technology Center for 3 years now. The school staff and administration is outstanding. We had a great loss of my husband in Sept 07. The school staff has been a great sorce of support and has helped us through this very hard time.

Beaver is the best elementary school in Garland! The teaching staff is outstanding! Beaver has mastered the art of making learning fun and school a GREAT place to be! The PTA is very active and really helps set the tone for an enclusive, can-do-by-working-together attitude that flows down to the kids. Beaver is in a league of it's own!

This is a great school. The teachers are very good. They are very callenging, without being mean. The administration at the school is incredible. My kids have been there 2 years and rae doing just great. They love it.

The school is awsome,my daughter was going to Vial the academic were far behind Beaver, the 2nd grades in Beaver were doing the same work as she was in 3rd. She is know attending beaver. The teacher are really involed with the children and the parents voice is rally heard, the PTA actually acomplishes what they setout to do with out putting pressure on the parents wallets.

The parents are really involved. The teachers are helpful in every situation. They listen to both the children and the parents' needs. It is an excellent school. The children are treated well and they are educated. The whole school has a family atmosphere. The principal is very down-to-earth. Mr. Price is an amazing person and administrator. The music teacher focuses on each individual student and helps them with their individual needs.

Principal and teacher leadership as well as involvement is of the highest quality.

This is my childs 2nd year at beaver and we love it! he is being challenged...The teachers are wonderful...The prinicipal is involved and caring...And the counselors are available and helpful. We love beaver technology center and i am eternally grateful that my son is part of the program.

My children have attended Beaver for 5 years now. This school continually provides high quality instruction and high caliber teachers. I am extremely pleased that my children have had the opportunity to be educated at Beaver.
