my daughter went to this school she liked it but i didn'd it took 2 month to get an appointment with the teacher. my daughter got a C in math the 2nd trimester and when i finally got in touch with the teacher and she told me what my daughter needed help on i went on line and printed out the stuff, she did the work and had no problem doing it. i dont know what is wrong with her teacher. also at the end of the year for the 5 graders there was no graduation and the day the "graduation" was on they change it the day before. they also sent spanish paper home with my daughter and we didn't speak spanish, they did that alot. the date on the calender was wrong alot of the time and when u called the office no one knew anything

Use to be a great school til they got the new principal....the last three postings hit it right on the head! They aren't parent friendly AT ALL.They don't enforce The Anti-Bulling Law for one thing.Big issues in my kids life that! They don't care and they pretty much have this snotty better than you attitude ...granted there are a handful of great teachers there and thank god that horrid school has THEM!!! Its all a click with that school...god forbid you have a parent teacher conf...cause they already have the cards stacked against you before you even walk in there..(BRING PARENT REPRESENTATIVE WITH YOU!!) I hate this school and they have failed my children numerous times...and I don't mean grades!!!

My child was never commended for doing well, when school choice was offered we moved her and we are all ecstatic! :( Shame on this school!

Greenacres Elementary is a wonderful school! All the teachers are so helpful. I went there, it is a great place to learn and have fun doing it! I think every child should go. Everyone there is so extremley nice and caring. Also the education is excellent. I got into advance classes from going to Greenacres. So Greenacres is the place to be!

Greenacres is a wonderful school with great caring principle,teachers and councelors. They are very concientious and work closely with the parents to give your child the education he/she deserves. I look forward to my son's graduation next year, knowing he will be fully prepared to go to middle school.

I was a student at Greenacres from 1990 until about 1995. The school is really good and everyone is really friendly.
