Hammock Pointe Elementary School

A very supportive staff has helped both my sons, one of which who might be autistic. Teachers are good and both my sons are doing great

My child goes to this school and she has been bringing home so much information and learning material it has been great. They really inform parents.

I have to agree with the last two reviews. The schools lack of communication with the parents is the worst. The school changes the way they are doing things in the last 2-3 months of school that they have left. What took them so long to make these changes? When you tell the school staff that you weren't notified of any changes or new things going on they say that notices were sent home or you get the notices way too late. I have received notices the day something is due. This is something that they need to talk to the teachers about. My son got switched within the first 3 weeks of school and now he has a teacher that is horrible and nasty. You can't talk to the office staff because they are just as nasty. I hope next year is better!

Hammock Pointe does not communicate with parents like it use to. I agree with the last posting in that you only find out about a problem when it is too late. They trust the children to bring home all relevant information. They have high expectations which is great when the child can meet those expectations but some children that haven't been properly evaluated for various reasons might (as the expression goes) get left behind. My daughter does really well but when she makes a mistake or forgets something the consequences are too great. They should be working with the children to build them up, not shoot them down when they don't quite meet all expectations.

My daughter has been at HPES for 3 yrs now,, We loved her K teacher, she was the greatest, always there! When it came to 1st and 2nd grade, well, we started t see and feel a change going on. She was struggling with reading, and it wasnt until mid term report cards came out, is when we became aware of the problem..Wouldndnt u think u would get aletter or something before if there is a problem gets worse???? Well it happened again in 2nd grade, the same thing, but this time, when we found out again, we sprang into action, giving the school a piece of our minds, then sent her strat into tutoring, and the school has put her into a reading program, and she is improving...Let hope it doesnt happen again next yr!!!

we just recently said goodbye to Hammock Point as we have moved to central florida. My son so enjoyed his 1st two and a half years of elementary school and I enjoyed volunteering! This school appreciates parental envolvement at any level. They are very organized and have many fun activities that involve families to participate. It will be hard to find a school to compare to this one. Hammock Point you will be missed.
