Kinloch Park Elementary School

I attended this school, my older siblings also and my oldest son.My youngest is in 3rd grade, I love his teachers and he is very happy also. They have a traffic lady who has no clue how to run traffic, dropping off or picking up your child is a mission. They need trained people to smooth traffic. I also went to the front office and was totally ignored by a lady working there she sat at her desk up front on the left with the window behind her, I went to pick up my ill child, and she left me waiting until the other lady was done attending another parent. The only bad apple in the office. All other personnel are great.

Overcrowded, Principal should enforce better rules and regulations on students respecting one another(Bullying)take a more disciplined action. Better actions should be taken for the protection of those students who are not as aggressive as others(stricter rules, consequences,more security?)

I am overall not very satisfied with the school. I myself attended this school a while ago and know my kids are attending. having come from palm beach schools I must say that this school is truly a disappointment. The pick and drop off is chaos there is no control over the parents that seem to just park their cars and leave them unattended while they get doen not just to pick up their kids but to mingle and waste time. The 4th and 5th grade dismissal is horrible a number of ridiculous parents accumulate themselves in front of their exit where the kids have to make their way inbetween the huddle of parents. Basically I am in awe in the way the overall school is handled. I have no complaints with the teachers at this time. I am overall not very satisfied wih the school.

I ve never being so unsatisfied with a school before. Kinloch Park Elementary is by far the worst school I ve ever come upon. They are also very disorganized and have hardly any communication with the parents. This may be also a teacher problem, but as a parent I like to know what s going on with my kid s class and how he is doing. The only way I find out how my kid is doing is when the progress report or the report card. A little late to improve my kid s grade, at least for this grading period. If you don t have to send your kid/s to this school then don t.

Yes the school is good and teachers too are very cooperative. Quality of academic programs are good.There should be more voluntary programmes for parents

My son went to a Private School K and 1st grade. When he started KPE he was below grade level. They put him the tutoring program and I have to say that he is at grade level now. His teacher was great! The programs they have are great! They might not know whats going on some times, but overall good school.

Both my children have been attending this school since pre-k. The teachers and staff are wonderful, they care deeply about the students and thier progress. However, I feel very insecure about the safety issue. There is a fence around the school, however, there are gates that are open to anyone all day long. This is dangerous because anyone can walk off the street, hide and do something bad to any one of the children. This is the only thing that I find wrong with this school. Other than that, the school is wonderful.
