Hay Branch Elementary School, Killeen | Fees, Rankings, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

I have 2 children who attended Haybranch for the last 3 years. I will say that the preschool/kindergarten program and its teachers were great. However, the school, in general, is a mess. They do not take their own anti-bulling policy seriously. One of our children was bullied almost his entire time there by the same children even after I repeated reported this to the teachers and staff. Some of the kids who bullied my son didn’t even care if they got in trouble at all. Many of the parents in this schools area treat the school solely as a daycare and the only discipline these children receive is at the school which is almost non-existent. So parents… do your job as a parent and teach your children that bullying is NOT ok ! A few of the teachers were amazing at this school and really kept in communication with me about my oldest son and his progress in his class/grades but some of them seemed like they were only there for a paycheck and didn’t take that time to help. I understand that teachers are busy and have so many kids to deal with but there are those teachers that go out of their way and really step up and want kids to succeed and not be left behind in the same grade again! So to end this review… I would not recommend this school to anyone at all!!!!

So upset with the way my son’s first day of school turned out. In the beginning it was good I was so excited for him an emotional then 4 pm comes around I get a call from a private ate number which I dont answer and another call from a private number at 427 this time they leave a voicemail. For future reference when leaving a voicemail leave a dang call back number. Come to find out my sone was sitting there all e from 345-427 talk about furious. They made hi. Miss his pick up after I called the daycare twice to make sure they knew to pick him up and the school. Bit the lady at the school was to busy talking G over me and cutting me off when I was trying to inform her that my son would be pi led up by daycare. Then the principle calls and she gets to do the same thing and cut me off when I’m talking. So I started to get angry and told her hold up I’m trying G to express to you what happened and why I’m so upset. She said oh ok I’m sorry. Dont be sorry listen when someone is talking if the lady that took my first call would of listened then none of this would of happened.

All the staff at this school is disrespectful, the staff likes to argue in stead help and work with the parents.

I never seen anything in my life where the teaching staff is so organized.
