Get to know Geneva Heights Elementary

Here's the quick lowdown on the elementary school.

  • Opened in 1927 as the Robert E. Lee Elementary School in a small building facing Matilda St., the school then moved to a two-story building in 1931. The original schoolhouse was demolished

  • Geneva Heights is one of only two elementary schools in Dallas ISD with a certified International Baccalaureate (IB) Primary Years Programme ๐ŸŽ‰ - both J.L. Long and Woodrow Wilson are also IB schools. These are where kids typically go to after leaving Geneva Heights Elementary

  • Geneva Heights is one of the few schools that offers a two-way dual-language program, and recently introduced German as a Specials class beginning in 2023.

  • Principal Israel Verver Jr., has led the school since 2023, and has dedicated his 19-year career to Dallas ISD. He is a product of DISD and with the support and encouragement of teachers, his family and community, he became the first in his family to attend college. He graduated from the University of Notre Dame. He began his DISD career serving as a teacher within the Oak Cliff and Pleasant Grove communities. He pursued a Masters in Educational Leadership from the University of North Texas before starting his next academic journey as an Assistant Principal and later, advancing to the role of Principal at various schools within DISD before joining the Geneva Heights community. To read more about his Mr. Verver's background and academic accomplishments, check out his bio on the DISD site.
