Pinecrest Glades even though they have a new principle, the lack of support and teachers that don’t care still remains for secondary. They hire teachers based on what they need not caring how bad that teacher might be in what they are getting hired to teach. The class #’s for secondary specially HS, are so small because the school is not that great so is hard for them to kept students and maintain the same # of students they have for elementary and middle. Those parents that end up staying or any new parents it will be great if they don’t care staying at a school the works so poorly . Now secondary started having different events for their students which they never had. The school is starting slowly but in order for it to be the school it needs to be, it will take them maybe another 2 years or more specially for Highschool. The classes are mix and they have never had classes just for gifted students only in Elementary. The way Glades prepare the students is not as great and instead of the teachers working with your child it seem like they are working against them and they don’t care if they perform . Is more negative feedback than positive. I get there’s no such thing as perfect school or excellent teachers, but when a teacher cares, it will show at the end no matter what challenges came along for that student. Another thing grades are posted late, the teachers add all this grades but it ends up hurting more the students average. When a parent try to find way to help their child, teacher don’t care to help and if they end up helping are student that those teacher get along with or parent that get along well with administration. Anything in that school that is brought to administration things are brushed off and they try to covered up their teachers by saying they are amazing or no complains have ever been brought up . No respect but just plain rudeness. The counselors at the school ( 1 for middle and 1 for Hs) not helpful at all and they don’t work with the students.) Glades has a few teachers that I don’t get how they are still teaching with so many complains past and even now . At the end no matter what the school might start offering or even something new which they never had an Academic pathway they need to improve in many different areas and find teacher that know how to teach what they are offering to those students and right coaches for some of those sports that are offered which is another area they lack because they can’t find people that want to coach some of those sport that school wants to start offering . I wouldn’t recommend the HS at Glades. There are better options out there for charter schools or even magnet school. Glades still needs a lot of guidance. Best of luck!

The school has no control over bulling, not only from students to other students but especially from teachers to children. I had to unsubscribe my daughter and the school period began, my daughter was frustrated, I had her feeling depressed. I contacted two of the 3rd grade’s teachers of my daughter and the principal of the campus, I requested the principal’s presence for the meeting with the teacher by mail days before and the principal had no time to decipher for not attending at the meeting. Everyone had a negative attitude towards my 8-year-old daughter. The teachers at this school do nothing at all. The children that arrive from school are the whole afternoon until night doing homework. I do not recommend this school to anyone, since the most important thing for us as parents is to feel safe of our children. It’s clear that they have no control over anything here.

hell>pga ,, this school is high key clueless. they ask to be respected when they themselves don’t respect the kids. they don’t give a damn about the students’ opinions or needs. there’s no support or compassion. everything is mandatory or an obligation. it’s basically jail. the administrators DO NOT have any sort of care for anyone or anything. they don’t know how to do they’re only job. they take advantage of their “superior position” to make everyone feel bad about themselves. for the love of god, don’t put your child in this school. the academics are bad, the clubs are bad, and the environment is horrible, insanely demanding. if i could, i’d give this school 0 stars.
