I have 2 children in SCES 1 in pre-k and 1 in the 2nd grade. My pre-k child has a physical disabilty and they do ever thing they can to help him, they special ordered all the special tools he needed to do his work with, they have went way out of their way to help him, and are GREAT at keeping me up to date with his achivements and they teach my new things that help him. My daughter thats in the 2nd grade WOW , she has came so far. Last year she went to school in Alabama and wasn't doing very good she barely passed. This year she is passing with fling colors. The teachers have always welcomed me and my husband to stop by this class at anytime. I give SCES a thumbs up!! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!!!

I am a very proud parent of a first grader who attends Seminole Elem., he's very excited about being a student, however I remain calm about the situation that has taken place. I do not feel that all kids are placed in the classes that they need to be placed in. I feel like this will be a hendurance to my child, simply because he is not in the same classes with the kids that is on his learning level. Some parents may feel like this is no big deal, but it is.

I am very proud of the Seminole County School system. Not only did I complete my studies there, now my child is being educated. I am very proud of my educational background that prepared me for post studies. My daughter is attending 5th grade, and is excelling with her studies. I appreciate the open door policy that exists. I have had numerous opportunites to communicate with the teachers and principal via Agenda that is furnished by our school at no cost to the parent which is an excellent communication tool, by email or parent/teacher meetings. Our children's education begins at home. Thanks SCES for a good school and great teachers!!! DJH

I would not recommend enrolling a child into this school. The children in the school do not get proper teaching due to the fact that it is so overcrowded. I think it is absurd to even require tests in the schools if our children who have graded well above average on these tests have to be placed in the same classes as those who have tested well below average.

We teachers here at SCES would love to see more parents involved. I can only speak for the First Grade teachers though. Parents who wish to help tutor kids in reading or math are welcome to come talk to me. I rate our school well. The kids are learning and the faculty is kind, considerate and caring. The negativity I read on this site is surprising since not many parents voice these opinions in person or on surveys we have received. SCES is an accredited elementary with the Southern Association of Schools and Colleges. There are very few Elementary schools that qualify for the SACS accreditation. We have several awards and recognition for maintaining excellence in the past 5 years. Overall SCES is a great small rural area school. Parents come check it out!

My son attended Pre-K and just completed Kindergarten at SCES. Contrary to other opinions, I have never had a problem with the staff at this facility. They have always been approachable and willing to listen to any concerns I might have. Teachers have made extra effort to let me know what my child is doing, even stopping me while shopping just to update me on his progress. My sister has a child that is the same age as my son, and she has received a similar response when working with the staff. Thank you for a job well done!
