My kids don't feel excited going to this school and moved from frisco isd. The school overall system is slow paying so much taxes here no expecting poor quality.

We’ve had two children attend here for the past two years with a third on the way. The surrounding neighborhoods are very kid friendly and warm. The principle and teachers here show a genuine care for the students.

Both of my kids loved the school and teachers. Teachers responded promptly to mails and created an nurturing environment for students to thrive!

After our child has been struggling at this school for the past month I now see that others are experiencing the same. This is so disappointing. I am giving 2 stars only because they keep the school and bathrooms clean, but this also could be a result of them not allowing children to use the bathrooms. If any other parents are having issues and would like to discuss please post in the Miremonte private group that you are having issues at Spradley to discuss privately.

This school causes emotional and psychological distress to children. They do not care about children, rather what they care about is test scores. They pride themselves on being the best in the district for testing at the expense of ridiculing the children that can't keep up. This school is full of teachers and staff who harshly criticize and instill fear in small children to achieve status. Parents of children who attend Spradley with similar experiences need to speak up because this school has a bad reputation. Our children are suffering the consequences of this school's shortfalls. Spradley elementary needs to be held accountable for their actions and have repercussions. Our children deserve better.

I have a child that attends Spradley elementary and I'm still on the fence about this school. It is a high-performing school and I thought that was a good thing. However, if your child is struggling or not on grade level, reconsider attending.I'm not satisfied with the engagement/concern I have received so far. Her teacher even said to me that my daughter has to take responsibility for her success. I wish 7-year-olds had the insight to take responsibility for their success then all the adults could just sit back and take the credit. How in the world can my daughter close the gap if her teacher does not believe in her? This little girl loves learning and tries her best every time I sit down to help her read a book or teach her something. But she is really struggling and right now she needs more support and direction than the other kids. I'm in real trouble here and I'm currently looking for programs, agencies, and any outside resources for assistance. I do like the fact that the school is clean and secure. The weekly themes are fantastic! especially "Be Kind".

Our family has two students at Spradley Elementry. We have always been happy with the way this school is run both academically and from a safety and security standpoint. Both of my children thrive each year with the kind, caring, and strict when needed teachers and support staff. A big five stars two thumbs up to Spradley and all the wonderful people that make it a fun and safe place for learning.
