Maybe the others were paid to highly rate this school, but they are not being honest. If looked, wholly, and critiqued even in the kindest light, the only saving grace of Eagle Lake Elementary is the Principal, but that's about where it ends. The teachers are inadequate and seemingly uneducated themselves. My son complained that one teacher in particular would sit on her cell phone DURING CLASS (subject matter not at all related to work/school). Other teachers would send home graded papers and reports which had undeniably WRONG information, but checked off and approved as being correct (I want my child to have good grades, but not to be mislead in thinking the wrong things are right). There were nice folks in the office working there, but as far as what your child will get out of this school? It wasn't promising for my son who had gone there since he was five, with every year, hoping that his next teacher would be better, and wanting to believe the school wasn't as low-graded as I've read (they're a C-rated school).
I LOVE THE TEACHER AND PRINCIPAL AND STAFF THERE. THEY ARE GREAT! MY KID WILL KEEP GOING THERE!!
I have two children who have attended Eagle Lake Elementary and one that will attend in a few years. The adminstration and teachers are great and work hard to give each child the best opportunities to succeed. My oldest child will be going to middle school next year, and I know he will do well because of the education he has received at Eagle Lake. This is truly a wonderful school.
Top notch school! Teachers and Administration were great throughout my sons 6 years of being there! Wish it went through 12th grade! Special thanks to Ms. Robb, Ms. Lance and Ms. Rivers. Florida's finest teachers!
Surprisingly, a very well-kept school (grounds, classrooms, hallways, etc.), and a top-notch administration. The teachers (my son is a kindergartener there) are absolutely wonderful, and encourage the fundamentals of learning. My husband & I are constantly impressed & amazed at how disciplined & organized this school has been. The ambiance is great, and everyone seems to have a can-do attitude.
I have three children and all have attended Eagle Lake Elementary. My daughter is now nineteen and still recalls all the wonderful times she had. My youngest is 10 and I truly thank the wonderful teachers like Mrs. Moore and Mrs. Shrader, Mrs. Raub who were patient with him and worked so hard to teach an unwanting child. He has grown so much and I believe this year with the team of Rivers, Chatron and Murphy he will be ready for all those state tests he has yet to take. Thank you to all of the great staff. Eagle Lake is truly a five star school.
Eagle Lake Elementary has went above and beyond to insure my children with the best education possible. I love the teachers and staff at Eagle Lake for embracing my children with love and understanding.They truly love working with kids and it shows!
