Brookhollow Elementary

Brookhollow Elementary sits in Lufkin, a mid-sized East Texas city surrounded by the Piney Woods, where the pace is unhurried and community ties run deep. The school serves families in a part of town where many kids grow up knowing their neighbors and teachers by name, though academics here are a work in progress — math and science scores in particular reflect some challenges that families should go in with eyes open about. Parents who are engaged and willing to supplement at home may find it a welcoming, tight-knit environment that reflects the character of Lufkin itself.
