This is a wonderful school. I moved here because it was rated so high and couldn't have been more pleased. All three of my children have had great elementary school experiences. I have interacted on many occasions with the principal, who can name almost every child in the school and truly cares about each one. The only time I ever had a problem, the principal was right there to help, not taking either side. One more note- Mrs. Hinchman is an exceptional teacher and you could see the proof of that by looking at either her higher than state average FCAT scores or the affection her students show for her.
This school gets an A rating which is deceiving, it only gives an overall view of the teaching being done. At the beginning of the year when i met Ms Hinchman, she told me she was a lazy teacher. Now I see she wasn't kidding, over half her class is failing in reading, rubrics writing, etc. Now with this new bill passed, these teachers will be weeded out and the problem with these burnt out teahers will be resolved.
My son has been going to this school since 1st grade. He's made lots of friends and i think this school is the best for a kid.
My son has gone to Lake George for 4 years. He is now in 5th grade there. I like this school. The staff is great with on exception but over all the staff is very dedicated and acessable to parents.
My granddaughter attends Lake George and she loves school! I think this is great as it keeps children interested in learning. She is very happy with her teachers. She is an avid reader and loves learning which I attribute to the teachers in addition to her family.
Great School, My children have done wonderful this year at the school. They had to repeat k and 3rd grade last year and it was so hard to keep them back but the teachers and everyone made me feel like I was not a failure at motherhood and that this was happeing in the best interest of the children. And Im so happy to say that they are both doing very well and most of all they as very happy and not so down like they use to be. Their Teachers have really gone the extra mile to help my boys and I thank God everyday that they have them as Teachers and that we have such a wonderful School here in our community. I give them a ' 10'
Polite, clean and good educational level
Love the school. The teachers and the principal. The system, the safety. I'm very happy and fourtunate to have my kids in this school. And Mrs. Phillips rocks.
My son has only been at Lake George for his 5th grade year in school. The transition to a new school wasn't easy but Lake George and Ms. Lynch (Great Teacher--Thank You!) made his time there a success. He liked everything from the staff, the extra curricular activities, to the over all care, leadership and involvement provided by the school.
My daughter has been at lake george for 4 years. I have nothing but problems with there lack of caring. The principal is not very involoved and is uncaring and always sides with the teachers. I have had to deal with her and it wasnt a very pleasant expierence. That makes the few good people there look bad.
