Community oriented school with teachers that go the extra mile.
I am so happy with this school. The staff is so friendly , it feels like your in a big family . The academics adn extra curricular activities are great and so well balanced . I am extremely satisfied with it.
It is clear why Echo Lake is repeatedly ranked as one of the state's top schools. We are so pleased we picked it. Outstanding academic programs - both during and after school. Excellent after school activities. Staff is exceptional and student body can't be beat. Clearly outstanding in the community.
Overall I have been disappointed in Echo Lake in general. They are very good about child saftey and academics, but on the down side their is too much homework for children K-5 age, sometimes it is just busy work with very little educational value. Also, they are very strict about policing what you may not do, such as fight, but they fail to mention what you should do, such as be kind, help others, and have a positive attitude. There are some lovely people on staff, and frankly a few stinkers as well.
This is a wonderful school! There are virtually no discipline problems. Warm, loving environment; experienced, kind teachers (for the most part)and a fabulous and very involved principal and vice principal. The PTA is very active. Parents can be found at school functions, school-community joint functions, reading to their child's class or having lunch with their child on any given day. Echo Lake is in a beautiful, cheerfully decorated building and the atmosphere is friendly and safe.
