The kinder department is great. The teachers are awesome and have noticed that not just my kids excel but others do as well. My kids look forward to attending class, and I contribute that to the excellent teaching and to the teachers who make the children feel welcomed and that they belong. Thank you Donna Wernecke staff.

All personnel is very professional and are always willing to help. My children look forward to going to school and have a great deal to say about the lessons they learn on a daily basis!

This is my son's first year at Donna Wernecke Elementary. He adjusted quickly because of the caring teachers and friendly students. The library is top notch with all the books he loves. Overall, he has had a great experience.

This year has been by far the worst year ever for my child! The teachers in 3rd grade are either lazy or do not care, I have tried to communicate or get a schedule on what is being learned and they just keep avoiding the question saying my child is doing okay. However, their acceptance on okay is a D, I have asked for my child to get tutoring and they say they have children who need more assistance! One teacher told me she could not meet for a scheduled meeting because she has kids to go home to, WOW talk about professional! Last year my child had an amazing teacher who taught well, but with the budget cuts and I assume the district rather not pay for the quality of good teachers she left for a better paying job somewhere else! Some of the staff are great but as for the principle, I dislike her social skills or how she does not get involved with parent interaction she has not allowed students to enjoy much of other things! I am shocked this is a Sharyland District school! I believe they need a new principle in this school because since they have been opened nothing good has come out of the school but bad attitudes from her and some horrible teachers! LEARN TO PRIORITIZE PEOPLE!

Great school, great teachers. My kids are very happy there and my little one will be starting kinder this coming year. He can't wait because of all the positives that my other two children have shared with him.

The Teachers are incooperative, the principal only cares about money, the counselor has no effect.
