Ellen Ochoa STEM Academy At Ben Milam Elementary

"i just hate this school, they never help the kids who need help and let them struggle, and let them get bullied. They also discipline kids because of their behavior like they dont let them go in fieldtrips or anything. They dont help when student are struggling with their grades all they do is discipline. Some teachers are mad all the time for no reason and never listen. They have favorites and just dont care about the rest. I have also been here before and it was terrible I got in trouble for some of the dumbest reasons ever."

"The Principal Dinah Escanilla Is A Bully And Very Rude And Disrespectful.She Is Also A big Liar And Shows Favoritism To Students.She Was Also Terminated From DISD.Her Restroom Is Disgusting Too Just Thought I Might Add That..."

"They will keep your kid bored and unchallenged and blame him for getting distracted when they can’t even keep them busy also they allowed bully and punished the bullied. Can’t wait to get my kids out of there."

"I was trying to transition into a more advanced school with STEM and other unique learning experiences. Instead, I got this. Throughout the school year I tried to convince my parents to send me back to my other school, but they wouldn’t budge. I had to try to better the school year for myself. I ended up joining the school counsel as treasurer, but I couldn’t do anything, as we had no money. We did have a successful fundraiser but we had to wait till the next year to get the money, but by that time, I decided I was going back to my old school. If I could go back in time, I would keep me at my old school. If your kid is already ahead and feels as if he or she needs to be challenged, don’t go here. My grades legitimately were less than my predicted score that year. The only thing I remember learning is how to do short division. They are way too well funded for their overall grades. They also cannot keep up with their incentive promises. They once said that if you got Mastery on one of the nine weeks tests, you would get a pizza party, ice cream party if you got another Mastery, and a water balloon fight if you got another. I should have gotten all of them. I didn’t get any. They don’t properly discipline their students. I am not joking when I say I saw a kid get pinned against a bathroom wall, a kid who tried to pick pocket my phone, and a full on fist fight. I do not recommend this school."

"Great School my daughter loves it she has improved so much the teacher's are great. They really do take the time to help your child in every subject. My daughter use to go to a dallas isd school but ever since we moved to grand prairie we never went back. The gpisd is better. My opinion."
