But I HATE THIS SCHOOL DO NOT ENROLL YOUR CHILD HERE ! ! ! Do NOT ! LEAVE THESE PEOPLE TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR KIDS ! I wanted So Long One Day To Bring My Kid Cupcakes That The Kids In P.E Was Able To Leave Their P. E Teacher Go To My Son Classroom Get My Son & MY SON HAD TO LET US IN ! The Kids Do What They Want To While The Office Is Worrying About Why Your Child Isn’t In Uniform , 10$ Late Fee , 1$ Dress Down , & Not Answering The Phone But THEY WILL CALL YOU WHEN MONEY IS INVOLVED !

This has to be one of the worst school I’ve ever seen being born and raised in Tampa Florida going to a lot School here in Tampa . This school is like a disfunction Family That Covers It all up by dressing everything up to look perfect , the Principal is rude , disrespectful & speaks to the parents as if she above them and looks down on them , like she knows better for your child THEN YOU DO talk to the kids as if they are her own . The school doors don’t open until 8am the kids have 15 mins to have breakfast and what ever they don’t have done they have to throw it away even though class doesn’t start until 8:30 ! My child didn’t wear uniform one day and was refused breakfast until the school got in contact with ( which had nothing to do with the child ) then was giving 5 mins to eat . The Spanish teacher is truly a reflection of her boss , she always very rude to children she Sends home a test saying my child made a 0% and need to practice at home how is it possible to practice Spanish in a English based home but not only do no one in my house whole speaks Spanish at all she Sent home the failed test that not even my child could remember the write words to study ! They teachers do not communicate with parents , Ana just runs around like a crazy person but nothing that goes through her get resolved ! This is a horrible school my child begs to stay home , I’m never at ease sending my child to this school and I will be removing him . SENDING YOUR CHILD TO THIS SCHOOL IS ALMOST EQUAL TO SENDING YOU CHILD WITH A WICKED STEP PARENT !!!

Its really annoying to see the teachers, and lunch men, give this school 5 stars!
The principal is intimidating to the point where they could loose their jobs if they didn’t rate 5 stars. (Seriously)

CONS- ok. My son went to this school for
kindergarten in Ms Montoya class- the same person that rated the school 5 stars. right away she labeled him as being a lair and thats exactly what she said to me about my son. Montoya slapped my nephew and the school tried to cover it up by lying including the principle Mrs. Williams and anna who saw Montoya slap him lied as well. so my son and nephew will not be back. every time my son tells them someone is doing something to him. they ignore him , or dont believe him.

And Debra Gwyn another teacher at the school who i saw pull a student by his shirt his dad saw it made a big scene and was taken to the office to discuss it with the principal because he was too loud. When the father left Debra Gwyn threatened the child while i was slowly walking pass. She was a terrible teacher always yelling at the students. Always!

PROS- its a small school, but not small classes, they offer Spanish. after care and before school care.
