BELTON — Vanessa Reyes wasn’t shocked when she learned her son’s school, Southwest Elementary, received a D on the state of Texas school accountability report in 2019. It made sense to her. The South Belton school, she said, lacked some basic things — such as an air-conditioned gym and additional resources for teachers and students. But Reyes knew it didn’t have the most important aspect: Parent involvement. That was something she saw at other schools, such as Sparta Elementary, where her nephew attends. “As parents, we have to be part of our kids’ school,” Reyes, a 2009 graduate of Belton High School, said. “We have to be involved in our kids’ learning — it’s part of being a parent.”
