Vial Elementary School Reviews

 
Both of my children have attended CCV. They have received above average support from the teachers and staff. The fast pace of the cirriculum is excellent and far beyond what they would have received in other GISD 'regular' elementary schools. This has been a great experience for all of us. I would like to see more time given to Latin and Piano during the regular school day as it was in the past, rather than as a before school program. The kids are already in school for 7 hours a day to make them get to school 45 minutes earlier to get the programs that were promised to them is disappointing.

This school to me is average to any other school.The teachers are young and very sweet.Any extra things the magnet program offers are done before school not during school.My daughter has been there 2-5 grades.They focus ALOT on TAKS.Over all It has been a good school but nothing special.

I am very happy with this school. My daughter came here after one year of public school. Before that, she completed 3 years of Montessori. Her first year at public school (not Vial), she was bored. Not challenged much. When she left Montessori she was beginning 3rd grade level reading/math. So to slow down, she was not happy. She stayed on the honor roll and the teacher there told me she was having a hard time keeping her busy. She was done before everyone else. I thought about returning her to Montessori until we found out about Vial. The Magnet program at Vial is faster paced than the normal course of study. My daughter's mind is being challenged and she loves to go to school. She is getting a private school education in a public school environment. And it shows. She has been maintaining an A Honor roll average all year.

i love this school, it's fun, and i learn something new almost everyday. The princible is very kind, and so are most of the teacher's!

Classical Center at Vial is a great school considering the fact that it is a public school. My child started there last year and loved it. The experience was awesome. First grade has been different and the teacher does not seem to have the patience that should be exhibited when working with 6 and 7 year olds. This factor alone has lead me to consider another school for my child. As far as the curriculum, it seems to go above and beyond. The teacher this year seems to be nice enough and that is as far as it goes. The principal is outstanding, involved and very willing to help.

I have 2 girls in this school K and fifth. We love it we transfered from Heather Glen and this school is VERY different. It has been positive and caring and very creative. I can not say enough good things about the school, students and staff. You will not be disapointed!

After one year at vial, our family is more than pleased. The principal was wonderful, helpful, insightful & very involved with our daughters' education. We're slightly disappointed in the 'classical' aspect, piano is only offered before or after school, so therefore bus students are not eligible. Otherwise though, a great school. Warm & welcoming!

I think Vial is a wonderful school. I love the curriculum and teachers. I especially want to give thanks the Ms. Rask for helping my child to learn how to read.

This school has been a lifesaver! All the extra experiences in art, music, piano & drama have really helped maintain my children's interest in school. We have had consistently fantastic experiences with teachers that really take the time to make a difference. Each year the program seems to have gotten better & better. The sense of community at this school is far greater than at the other GISD elementary schools we have had experience with. We also really enjoy the uniforms - much easier & less expensive.

School's classical focus is more marketing than actuality. Music program is very elementary and minimal. Latin is nonexistent. Academic focus is naturally TAKs oriented. Creativity is average, like any other public school. Teachers are average. Focus on Taks and do what's necessary to ensure students are successful on TAKs. Principal leadership during 2004/5 was abysmal. New leadership will be in place for 2005/6.

The teachers at this school are outstanding! The first grade program in particular is amazing. The teachers work with the students in a way that cannot be matched by even the finest of private schools. If your children can qualify for this school, it is an opportunity that will enhance their lives forever!

I have been very pleased with the Classical Center @ Vial. The teachers are skilled,hard working and truely seem to care. The staff has done an excellent job with extra curricular activities. Field trips to museums, operas, an in-school full production play and many others. Their test scores have improved vastly over the past years. I think anyone choosing to attend the Classical Center @ Vial will be very pleased that they made this choise.
