Sea Castle Elementary School

Sea Castle is a good School with great potential!. The principal needs to focus in the first grades (kinder, first grade) because they are the foundation! and not only to pass the State Test. Give more resource and help the teachers!!!! they need it. The principal needs to have a better comunication with the parents maybe in that way he will promote more parents involvement in the school.

Sea Castle Elementary School is a Good School. My daughter is in Kindergarten and have been a wonderful experience for me and her. Mrs. Chavez is an excellent teacher because she teaches from the heart making the learning process from the kids more easy because they want to learn. I wish the Broward County System stop the cutting of more teacher's jobs, our kids needs a good education and this situation only will put more stress in our teacher's. The Education should be a top priority in our country.

Sea Castle Elementary is a very good school. My daughter has attended for the past 5 years. The new principal this school year seems very caring and focused on the students academics and also the family as a whole. I am very impressed to see that he attends the PTA meetings each month. Together we can improve our school grade C to a B or even an "A". We can do it, I have faith.

Sea Castle is a great school. But the lack of teachers to students makes it very hard for the teacher to concentrate and stay on task, with helping students that have difficulty understanding what they are being taught. I understand that the school is over crowded, and Mrs. Eckhardt is trying her best to keep the school at an average grade level. She is an excellent principal and I hope she continues to be at that school as long as my daughters attend. I would like to say thank you Mrs Eckhardt for being such a great person and role model. Oh! by the way please update the parking area for parents to pick up their children at the front of the school and the buses at the side where it is impossible to get to) I do believe it would be better that way.

Both my children have gone to sea castle elememtary since they were 5 years old. sea castle is a school where the children come first. Each child is encouraged to do their personal best without being labeled as the smart or dumb kids. The teachers are highly skilled and work hard to bring out the best in each child. The principal is kind and knows each child by name. She is a great example of a leader and I will miss seeing her everyday as my son will be graduates in the next 4 years. Thank you sea castle for bringing out the best in my children and giving them the encouragement and confidence they need to go out into the world! ' God Bless

My child is in the first grade and this is his first year at Sea Castle. It is too soon for me to critic the academics of the school but the traffic and parking are a nightmare!! There are very, very few parking spaces for the parents and when your child is late, it takes at least 20 minutes to find a parking and process them through the office. This school needs a better system than what it has in place now.

As a parent of 2 austistic boys, I am very disapointed with the cluster program. Additional funding is made to this school for having this program and In my beliefs, I don't think is being used soloely for these children.The children of these class's are extremely seldom treated with the same respect and and dignity as 'regular' peers of same age.There is a few wonderful cluster teachers, BUT.. Not enought for my children to return next school year.

I have a child in the 3rd grade and one in kindergarten. I receive weekly reports on both of my children. I can walk into the office with any concerns and all my questions are answered. They stress and encourage parental involvement. They have an after school academic camp which has really helped my 3rd grader in math and reading. I m sure we'll be an 'A' school next year.
