I moved my children to this school in the beginning of the school year and love it! I regret not moving them sooner. The staff is awesome. The teachers love what they are doing and it shows. It is a friendly warm school. As you walk through the school you feel as everyone is happy. The teachers and staff say hi with a smile wherever you are in the school. There are lots of after school activities. Here are a few sports, cooking, seeing, chess, robotics. It seems like something for everyone.

I absolutely love this school. My grandson is in 2nd grade now and loves his school. I love the way the teachers and staff speak to them, by name, while we are walking in the halls and genuinely care about each child. Mr. Caldwell, is the Principal and is very active and caring about the education of all the students . His leadership is evident as he attends the many activities /programs available for the kids. I have personally heard him praise and encourage students. He really cares. Character, Respect, Kindness and Smiles are definitely a huge part of why I love Cornith Elementary School.

We moved here almost 4 years ago from Houston and absolutely LOVE this school! Both of my boys have gone here and we could not ask for a better environment for them to learn. The teachers and staff at Corinth Elementary are AMAZING! The Principles are always very welcoming and have a positive attitude which feeds into their staff. One of my boys has a harder time than the other and both have soared since attending Lake Dallas ISD. Proud to be Falcons! :)

We LOVE this school. We had many challenges at a different school but this staff is trying new things to make my children soar and be amazing

I have two children at Corinth Elementary. Both have attended since Kindergarten and are now in 4th and 2nd grade. With the exception of my son's 2nd grade teacher (Mrs. Hull), we've loved CE. Mr. Caldwell is an awesome Principal and does anything he can to help the kids. The majority of the teachers genuinely love what they're doing and want to see your children succeed. Our only complaint has been that we wish they taught based on the child's strengths, but that is hard to do in a public setting. Unless you want to pay for private school you're not going to get that. All in all we love CE and we're glad our children attend such a loving environment.

I have had both my children go through CE and both have done very well there and are now graduated college/attending college. I have found the teachers to be very engaged with their students emotional and educational needs. I, as well as many of other parents I know (past and current), have found the teachers and administrators easy to talk with. When I read the negative reviews, I find myself wondering if they are speaking of the same school our family has come to love! This is a GREAT school!!

Wonderful experience for my daughter! Patient and caring teachers, staff and administration. A campus and school district that cares about each individual student.

My 3 children have and will continue to receive top notch education from Corinth elementary. All the teachers, administration and the support staff are excellent at what they do. We could not ask for better people to educate our children.

This is my child's first year at Corinth Elementary, and I couldn't be more pleased with the education he is receiving. The teachers and staff truly care about each child and family. The learning environment is supportive and nurturing, and my child is flourishing at this campus.

I have been a CE Parent since 2006. Both of my boys have had excellent teachers every year. All staff is caring, helpful, responsive and works positively to meet the needs of each child. The PTA is supportive and very active in the school. I am very glad my family is a part of CE and Lake Dallas ISD.

Horrible experience for us. I would not recommend this school to anyone. If you value your child's love of learning and reading keep them away from this school.

We moved to the area because of this school. I have had mixed experiences here, and it really depends on the teacher-student compatibility. When we found that the staff had been rearranged and there was potential for one child to have a repeat teacher that didn't work, a simple call to the vice principal was all it took. The teacher was a good fit for students that respond well to positive reinforcement, such as my second child, but the VP and I both knew that my child required a firm discipline style. The staff is understanding, and most of them work to the needs and personality of the child. My worst experience is with the nurse who decided that one of my children is obnoxious due to inquisitiveness and chattiness with adults. The teachers are great. Every one has learned what makes my kids "tick" and learned how to motivate them to do the not fun stuff to get to the fun stuff. The VP keeps it running smoothly, and fairly; the new Principal seems to be highly engaged in bringing the school to a higher level. The teachers offer extra time to keep programs like Jump Rope Club, Basketball, Choir, Math club, UIL competitions. I would put my kids back in this school in a heartbeat.

A very disappointing experience. All seems well, but after my oldest attended for a two and a half years, we found the staff unengaged, oblivious to campus problems, and an administration that drills 'teaching the test' as a methodology. Poorly run, poorly engaged, poorly prepared, and churning out students like a factory producing corn flakes. My view is that CES is an extended stay day care facility; and not a very good one. We pulled our oldest (and sent our youngest) to a local charter school (Vista Academy) and have had outstanding results and nothing but positive experiences. The difference shows when I see our kids with kids that go to CES; the CES kids are EASILY 1 to 2 years behind in math and reading. Add that Vista has a more advanced (modern) curricula and the choice should be obvious.
