I feel that they are treating us with discrimination, I am Mexican living in Texas for 25 years and my daughters are American citizens and every time they call me to ask something about my daughters, the secretary refers to me as if we were coming from Mexico my daughters and me and in any way. she asks me the questions in relation to my daughters, I find it in some way offensive and racist.

We cannot rave about Wallace enough. It is a gem with an active parent community that is invested in helping the teachers create a learning environment where all students can soar!

When we out grew our old house I knew I wanted to stay in the same school district after attending the Kinder Round-up. This last year my daughter blossomed and it was all due to her amazing Kinder teacher and other teachers that helped! I am excited to see how she does in 1st grade and so blessed to have my kids go to such an amazing school!

Diverse school reflective of the real world. My daughter is in her second year there and absolutely loves it. She is challenged and is constantly learning new things. They have great parent involvement, adventure princess & guides programs through the YMCA, sports teams and even girl and boy scouts. A++

Wallace is a wonderful school! The teachers go above and beyond their call of duty every day. I can t say enough about the teachers, staff, administration, and PTA leaders at this school. Open communication is encouraged. Parent involvement is high encouraged, and there are good opportunities to get involved even for the full time working parent. The more you get involved the more you will love it! Very proud to be a Wallace Wolverine!

My daughter enrolled at Wallace in 2013; I'm grateful that this is our area school! Parents involvement is highly encouraged in all aspects! My child is reading beyond her level and progressing in math. Daily practice work and books are sent home with the children. Mrs. Whitaker is an awesome kindergarten teacher; she's opened parents conference as needed. I look forward to more years at Wallace. Keep in mind that parents are the chief pilot to their children academic success!

Wallace is a terrific neighborhood school! The teachers are engaged and passionate about their craft. WE has a tremendous network with their involved PTA parents that and opportunities abound. As with any school if parents have the flexibility to volunteer and help, it only enhances the education of all the pupils! When the water rises in the bay, all the boats go up! If parents got involved, all the kids would benefit!
