Both of my kids attended Donna Park, and even today every time we pass by they say, "Oh, I miss Donna Park." They loved it there, and I really enjoyed the teachers, after-school care, and various events including a multicultural night. The teachers would contact me whenever they felt the kids were having trouble and were eager to consult with me on how to help. The counselor helped my daughter, and the gifted and talented teachers are still the kids' favorites.

My autistic 4 year old daughter is in the pre-K PPCD program at Donna Park. She's been attending since she turned 3. There aren't enough superlatives for me to use to describe her teacher or the PPCD program at Donna Park. Our daughter's made wonderful progress and the environment couldn't be better. In fact, we'd intended to move to a larger house this year, but we're delaying because we want to keep her at Donna Park! I've been very pleased with the level of parent involvement as well. Since my daughter's nonverbal, I was very worried about leaving her in the care of someone I didn't know. We were actually *encouraged* to observe in the classroom prior to our daughter's admission, and we've been welcomed back ever since. The PTA's active, and the parents care about the school. As a former teacher, my standards are extremely high. Donna Park doesn't just meet them, but exceeds them -- and that is not an easy thing to do, especially since I was less than impressed with the other HEB schools my stepsons attended.

My son has been going to Donna Park since Kindergarten and the principals, teachers, and staff have been wonderful. Could not ask for a better elementary school.
