The principal and administration are trying very hard to improve Polk Avenue and are extremely pleasant and caring professionals. The atmosphere of the school in general is quite chaotic and unorganized. The veteran teachers are absolute gems! Unfortunately some of the newer staff has much to be desired. I wish the school would focus more on civil behavior and respect for one another over just teaching the FCAT. There is much more to life than being rated an "A" school. The children do not have respect for one another or the staff.
i am a mother of 2 kids who attend this school.I give it a 4 star rating the organization skills are poor but improving.the teachers and most staff are great.I do think kindergardeners need a nap as well as recess,which they do not get.The principal is doing a great job improving the school.They try hard to get the parents involved but to no avail they won't show up.school has changed so much since we went to school.
it's a pleasant place to be. Good administration and great staff. I really love Polk Avenue.
The teachers and staff at Polk Ave are the best! The teachers really do put the students first and make sure that every student is doing their best.
In my opinion Polk Avenue is the best elementary school in Lake Wales. All of my children attend there and it is so pleasent to volunteer at the school as well. Every person on the staff are wonderful people and really take time out for the students and teachers. Polk Avenue has added some new teachers this year, who several of them I have already known, and I couldn't be happier that they are teaching there. This school has done so much good over the last year and still plans to do more. It will be very exciting to see the future results. I would hate for my children to have to attend any other school. Keep up the good work Polk Ave.
