  • My kids started going there in April 2010 when we moved to Texas. Now, my daughter is at the MS. I have to say, this school is outstanding. The staff are friendly, they have great programs. And most of all... the kids really seem to love going to school. I loved the school so much I am buying a home in the neighborhood. Cant wait to see this year unfold!!

  • i love this school then all the other schools here. I think jones is the best because it helps me learn more because of the teachers there always there for me and everyone else. I know they're always going to be willing to help us understand the topic more clearly.
