(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Mr. Garza has a terrible record with his staff. Since he started at this school it has had many good teachers leave - EVERY YEAR. I have heard him be rude to teachers, children and parents. He is very moody and this sets a nervous tone in the school. Nobody seems happy to be there. I really have never talked to any other parent who is happy since he took over.

(4 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Jackson Elementary has really changed, thanks to Mr. Garza.
He has really made a difference at the school. He is very involved with the students, and always takes time to hear your thoughts concerns. I am very pleased with Mr.Garza and his staff.
