School of Science and Technology - Spring

"We were excited to consider this school for 2024-2025, unfortunately there had been a miscommunication from SSTs end that lead to unfairness (disappointment) and though the issue was resolved after all, the way the whole situation was handled by their registrar was not done by one whom has held proper education, which leads me to believe it may not be wise to consider this school for my child’s education. I ended up dropping my child’s seat and have chosen to remain at the current charter school. My decision is of course personal, but the manner in which they have interacted with a first time enrollment is definitely not personal. SST should really reconsider their communication process, they did admit rolling out a new communication system, however, it would’ve been practical to have tested before releasing but also practice fairness to those who did not receive proper communication. SST reaches out to parents after their child’s application has been declined (registrar cannot revert) it is simply unethical on SSTs part. Why not reach out within the 5 days specially considering that you have a new system? (my child was granted a seat by the way) I could go into a lot of detail, however, there’s no need as the school already has established students and one less will not affect their processes and procedures. I do hope the best to them, and if things do happen for a reason then be it, as long as my child receives advanced education with my child’s current school then there of course should be absolutely no concern from SST. I would like to add, there is no way to contact any of their board members. Good Luck to everyone’s children going to this school. Above all, what matters the most is for the new generation to receive continuous advanced education to help generate better future leaders. With that said, I wouldn’t recommend SST for your child’s education."

"I’ve tried to talk to school admin multiple times before deciding to make this public complaint and warning for any other parent considering making the switch over to SST spring, don’t. The school lacks leadership. If your child is smaller expect to miss EVERY milestone bc the school does not provide a way for you to participate. Want to celebrate your 5 yr olds birthday with them? You can’t. Want to see them attend their kindergarten dance? You can’t. You will miss picture day as if you should trust that your child will look the exact same hours after sending them to school. Sometimes they let you know the night before if there will be an event happening at the school. Often times for spirit weeks we don’t receive the calendar with the different dress up days until the week of. The school is unorganized. The staff is overwhelmed. The vice principal is also the science and math teacher. There are numerous admin staff that do this. There is no way our kids can receive the attention needed. I’m overall disappointed with the entire experience. I’ve brought all of this to their attention numerous times but it just seems to be a blame game going on with no one taking any real responsibility. Do yourself a favor and find somewhere else for kids to attend school. They will however allow you to eat lunch with your kids if you volunteer to help out during lunch time. Very disorganized. Let me add every Wednesday the kids get out an hour early (2:20) for staff development, and every last Wednesday of the month the kids get out at NOON for staff development. When the staff will finally be developed im unsure. Also, the spring location only has maybe 4/5 extracurricular activities for the kids to choose from so you aren’t missing much."

"As a staff and as parent of a student who has attended this school for the past few years , I can confidently say that this is an exceptional educational institution that provides an excellent learning environment for its students. Firstly, the teachers at SST Spring are highly qualified and dedicated to their work. They are passionate about their subject matter and are committed to providing the best possible education to their students. They work hard to ensure that each student receives individualized attention and support to help them succeed academically and personally. Moreover, the school has an excellent range of extracurricular activities that allow students to explore their interests and develop their talents. From sports teams to academic clubs, there is something for every student to get involved in. This provides a great opportunity for students to make new friends and develop their social skills. In addition, the school has a strong sense of community that fosters a supportive and inclusive environment. The school administration and staff prioritize the well-being and safety of students, and there are ample resources available for students to access if they need additional support. Overall, I would highly recommend SST Spring to any parent seeking a quality education for their child. It is a fantastic school that provides an enriching and fulfilling experience for students."

"I am so proud to be a part of this community! We have great students, staff, and parents! I am a proud parent of SST Spring Family as well. I have three kids attending to this school. They have received wonderful scores from STAAR Test. It shows the impact of the school on their success."

"All the complaints seem to be personal issues when you dont follow the rules. We love this school they handled the bullying situation very well. My daughter is special needs and receives the help she needs. Teachers are helpful and nice. We have had a few small issues but nothing out of the ordinary and would have been worse at another school district."
