Maxine Hong Kingston Elementary School

I love the welcoming atmosphere! Two of my boys were students there, and they had wonderful teachers! I worked at that site for two years, and have since been moved to another site. I miss the staff and all the students!!! Mrs. Hale is a wonderful Principle, I had zero issues with her in regards to my children or as a boss. Hong-Kingston has a wonderful staff that works really well together!

I think Hong Kingston is an excellent school. I especially like how the principal, Mr. Garza, is so close with the students. I have 3 daughters in this school and I've liked all of their teachers. This school has a sence of closeness and family that I sence whenever I attend any of the assemblies. These administrators truely care about their students.
