Coral Sunset Elementary School

My son went to this school for 2 years. Staff is not very friendly and pricipal leadership is not strong at all. The school as a whole is not very organized. If your child is an average student, he or she will likely 'fall through the cracks'. My son was a straight As student all year round and the school does not do much to keep kids motivated. When asked, the excuse was that there s not enough funds, they did not even have the traditional 5th grade graduation that other schools have. If money is an issue, why not ask parents for help? I feel there s a lack of organization and being proactive. When compared to my other sons elementary school, Coral Sunset Elementary school does not come close. Would not recommend this school to anyone, worst in Boca Raton.

This is a great school. Teachers are very dedicated to their students. They are willing to help in every way possible. We as parents need to support or teachers in what ever they need to make our children a success.

My two sons have been attending this school for the last 3 years. I only have great things to say about this school and the wonderful teachers they have had (Mrs. Woolsey, Ms. Hartman, Mrs. Robertson and Mrs. Oldfield). There is great teacher involvement in this school, and the PTA program is tremendous. They also have a wonderful aftercare program that both of my children love.

I must say that at first I was reluctant to send my daughter to this school. I believe in being involved and knowing exactly what is going on. What really matters most is the teacher. I feel that her teacher is Aces across the board. She is very well organized, experienced and very patient with her students. After many obstacles we have discovered that what matters most is the educator. if you are not involved and than you will be missing out on your childs education. Education is what you make of it.

My daughter attended this school for 2 and a half years. I have to say that I was ecstatic when I was able to enroll her in another school instead. Parental involvement is low and pricipal leadership is not very strong either. The school as a whole is not very organized. If your child is an average student, he or she will likely 'fall through the cracks'.

My daughter transferred to this school form MA and we actually had a hard transition coming into Fl. It seems less organized and the staff seems less friendly towards families of their students. There is always a feeling of not enough information. She eventually adjusted, although it took 8 months for her to establish a school spirit and a sense of loyalty for her school. I feel the curriculum is a bit easy and feel she learned more in the two months in MA than the eight months here based on teaching style. I did choose this school over a magnet school for 4th grade, so we are giving it a second chance. I hope when she has a difficult challenge the school will give more support this year coming up.

In my opinion this is the best Elementary school in Florida. Mrs. Thume (music teacher) teaches harp to some students and is a wonderful teacher. Here is a list of teachers I reccomend at each grade level. Kinder: Ms. Lane, 1st: Ms. Hartman, 2nd: Ms. Tanis, 3rd: Ms. Bates, 4th: Ms. Palmisiano, 5th: Ms. Grille. Hope this helps.
