Greenglade Elementary School

My daughter attended this school for K-2 grade. It changes every year! It was from nice and sweet to strict and mean! I'm happy that my daughter has moved to PPA. Its a sweeter environment for my child.

As a Greenglade Gator Alumna and current teacher, Greenglade will continue to be my home away from home. The teachers, staff, students and parents work as a team in order to provide each other the very best! Go Gators!

I love the staff, administration and the students. At Greenglade, we are all like a family. We teach our students and we nurture them as well - it's wonderful. I speak as a teacher and a parent.

Great school!!!Teachers, administration, parents, students. Excellent learning environment

At Greenglade, every child is important. I know everyone says this, but we live it. Alumni come back to say how their years at Greenglade were the best years of their lives. Parents and teachers also come back and say the same. We joke and say, 'cut the chord', but once Greenglade gator always a Greenglade gator. Many of our students choose teaching as their profession just because they had that special teacher at Greenglade that inspired them to be a teacher and help others. Greenglade is everyone's home away from home.

I love the way the faculty and the staff care about the students. The students have always been our greatest asset. Throughout the years it has been a great small school. Everyone always raves about our school. I am now a teacher at the school. I used to be a parent. Love it both ways.

The teachers and the staff care about the students.

Greenglade is a great place for students to be introduced to the world of academia and social interaction. I developed some of my most important character traits during my years at Greenglade.

Greenglade Elementary is an A+ school...from the principal to the janitorial staff everyone is great...the teachers care about their students and work with the parents to provide an excellent learning environment for our children...

This was my daughters 1st year at Greenglade as a Kindergartener, I am so impressed by how much she learned and by how great her teacher was. I have to take off my hat to Ms. Carpentero, I have never meet a teacher more dedicated to her students. My daughter is a little shy and she just blossomed under this teachers care and guidence.

My son is finishing his kindergarten year here. I teach in the Archdiocese, so I have plenty of parochial options, and I (fortunately) can also afford some of the other private options. I AM SO GLAD THAT I CHOSE TO PUT HIM HERE. He is a good student, but somewhat shy, and the school had fostered his academic development while helping him adjust socially. He READS masterfully and writes in paragraphs! He draws with more talent than anyone in my family! He analyzes scientific concepts everywhere we go! He asks all kinds of informed questions about the election and about geography. I am amazed at the wonderful experience he has had. All this, with a teacher with only 3 years experience who just joined Greenglade this year. She's great; I expect others to be. I do wish there was more internet connection, but that matters less than the teaching.-Janette Sierra

My children attend Greenglade Elementary School and I am sad to say that this school continues to disintegrate by the years. The problem starts from the administration and scrolls itself down the ladder to the teachers. Teachers are being hired out favoritism, instead of professional qualities. Teachers are unhappy with the administration and reflect it on their students. Students are being taught out of order, just to cover the 'FCAT', therefore covering the grade for the school. There is no love in teaching, because the teachers have to be concerned only on the scores. Teachers are bothered by the parents involvement. If teachers, parents and students don t work together, nothing can get achieved. Luckily there are still teachers in the school in which your children can still count on, like Madera, Leon, White, and others who you know. I only have one question: WHAT HAS EDUCATION COME TO?

I am very happy with this school! My two kids have attended since kindergarden. My only feedback for the school is to be more internet friendly in order to post homeworks/assignments especially when kids are out sick. My kids love Ms. Rodriguez and Ms. Madera. This is still a small school with very involved parents! The principal and assistant principal show teamwork between them which is really important. Yolany Amador

My 2 Daughters Attend Greenglade Elementary. I recommend this school to all parents. The Teachers are caring and dedicated. The academic progarms are competitive and challenging. The parents are very involved and always volunteering and many of them are employed at the school

The school should give more contact access to the parents online. They are very bad in return concern parent calls. As a full time single mom I have to request hours off from work to be able to discuss any issue for example (if the students will have a holiday party) with the teachers. Teacher parent contact and access info should improve.

This school was once very parent oriented. Unfortunately, for about 2 or 3 years, the school has become very anti-parent. This is very dissapointing. Especially since I knew the school prior to it becoming such a way. Three years ago it was a school where parents smiled and shared in most school activities with their children. Today, parents are seldom seen within the school.
