My children, one with dyslexia, have done very well at this school. The teachers and administration are wonderful at dealing with anything we have thrown at them. They are very quick to assist with bullying.

My son, with a disability, has received excellent accommodations at this school, in the PPCD, and K-2nd classrooms and I have high hopes from what I have seen for the 3rd-5th grade years. Teacher and support Para's are excellent and get better every year as the program expands. Principal, Vice Principal and all support staff are very pleasant and easy to work with.

The good: Some teachers really care and are enthusiastic. School works great if children don't have a disability. The bad: Lack of control in a some classes. Went to teacher and principle to get a issue under control to no avail. Denton isd needs to work on dyslexia program. Children at Stephens didn't get pulled from classroom for program ( for three weeks). Lack of communication from dyslexia teacher. Children are also singled out when pulled from class into special needs classes.

My daughter attended this school last year, and we have since moved and definitely see a difference. The teachers at this school are very involved in the development of the children. I loved the emails I received weekly from the teacher with updates of my child. I worked a hectic schedule with my job, and this school was wonderful with time mgmt. My daughter states repeatedly how much she misses this school and her prior teacher.

Asst Principal takes over as Principal. Due to the prior Principal's health issues, she was doing the job already. Looking forward to Mrs. Rangel finally getting the credit for her hard work!

Our daughter is about to head to middle school after being at Stevens since it opened, three years ago. We have loved being a part of this school. There is a true feeling of teamwork between the staff, parents and students. The atmosphere is fun, safe and conducive to learning. Caring and engaging teachers, involved parents and supportive administration. Our daughter has enjoyed this school and is leaving it fully prepared for middle school.
