overall i think Dream Lake is an excellent school, I am seeing a bit if a problem this year with comunication, between parent and teacher, and teachers with admins, may not be in all cases but it is there, the bathrooms are always dirty and never any soap for handwashing in them, not a god thing right now , with swine flu traveling around.

I give Dream Lake Elementary 5 stars. I have 4 kids, 3 already grown with their own kids. I have a 8yr old in Dream Lake and I have never experience the exceptional attention Dream Lake gives to our children.

I like DLES but the bathrooms are disgusting. Even though the bathrooms are filthy it is a pretty good school

My boys have been at DreamLake Elem school for three years now. All of the staff are exceptional! My boys teachers help them to do the best that they can, and offer advice on what types of extra help is needed. The staff is very helpful in every way... If I have a question they have an answer if not they find the answer; they are willing to work with the parent(s) to provide the best education possible for the child(ren). They know my children by name and ask how they are doing. I'm called if there is a problem, teachers are willing to work with me due to the fact that my children live with their father and I'm 30 miles away. They respect the situation and don't make me feel like I don't belong. There is a high level of parent involvement, excellent academics. Highly recommend DLES.

This is my first year as a parent of a dreamlake student and I have to admit I love her teacher. She is very creative and involved and does an excellent job. The school could use more parent involvement but overall I am pleased. If I was dealing with a different teacher I may not be so happy but as is I could not have asked for a better person teaching my child.

As a parent of children who were homeschooled, I,ve got to say that this school was just what my children needed. The teachers use positive reinforcement which I,ve found works wonders. The chance for children to take an active part in their school appearance, the safety of other children, the reading buddy program just to name a few are wonderful. My children are becoming better citizens. Thanks Dream lake!

Dream Lake Elementary is an excellent school. The teachers are caring and communication is great between parent and teacher. They also offer free after school tutoring which is a great benefit and has allow both of my children not only to catch up but excel. Dream Lake is always looking for ways to improve and they don't procrastinate they do it! Awesome school, great teachers, happy students.
