My daughter has been enrolled in Grade 6 at Howard School for the past six months. During this…read moreperiod, we experienced repeated and serious issues related to the school environment and the administration. Despite our efforts, these problems were not resolved. As a result, I have made the decision to withdraw my daughter from Howard School and enroll her in another school. I am extremely dissatisfied with the lack of organization and professionalism demonstrated by the administration. Based on our experience, I would not choose this School again and would not recommend it to other parents. I not consider the Howard School like Magnet level, nothing good in this school

I normally don't leave negative reviews, but after my recent experience, I feel it's important to…read moreshare for other parents. (This is not about the teachers at all. The teachers are absolutely phenomenal.) I had reached out to the Jeannette, the owner with a very respectful message regarding my 3-year-old son who is educationally delayed, simply asking that he be spoken to gently when corrected. I explained that he's sensitive and doesn't respond well to being yelled at (regardless of the "facts" my child and another child told me she had raised her voice with my child and I explained how I handle things at home with MY child since all children are different), and my note was polite and understanding -- I even acknowledged how stressful their job can be, and even thanked her at the end of my message for all they do here. The response I received was incredibly unprofessional and dismissive, her response shows where her priorities stand with the concerns of parents and their children. She thinks just because she has experience that there is no room to grow and be a compassionate human being with a parent who's trusting their whole world in her hands. Instead of addressing my concerns as a parent, I was told not to "school or teach" Jeannettee, accused of not having my facts straight, and even told that "maybe this isn't the school for you." If she cared for my son even a little bit, that wouldn't have been a part of her response at all. That type of tone is completely unacceptable, especially when a parent is just advocating for their child's emotional needs. It seems her pride was hurt during my message and she retaliated so absolutely disgustingly. She said someone should have notified me, well no one did. She talked down on me like she's better than anyone else. This situation showed me that communication and compassion are not priorities for the owner of the school who is the example and face of this school. If an administrator reacts this way to a calm, concerned parent, I can only imagine how they respond to others behind closed doors, and even the children that attend. On a separate occasion I was given a paper by my sons speech therapist and was told to give it to the school so they can see what we are working on and to ensure it's being followed as well as giving tips. (Reminding you, he was still fairly new at this school) and instead of reassuring me that they will do it, she once again became defensive and said they already do that and I should be doing this at home. Her attitude is absolutely horrible. My son deserves an environment where he's nurtured, not one where parents are made to feel like they're a problem for speaking up. I've chosen to withdraw him since she didn't care enough about my child to come to a resolution or even explain what happened kindly and was so quick to say my son shouldn't be there. *SHE DOES NOT CARE ABOUT WHAT YOU SAY, SHE WILL DO WHAT SHE WANTS REGARDLESS OF WHATS BEST FOR YOUR CHILD AS LONG AS SHE THINKS ITS WITHIN HER "30" YEARS OF EXPERIENCE. Our children should not be put in categories. They are individuals. THIS: is who you're sending your children to. I will make sure everyone knows her demeanor and priorities. I have screenshots posted on their google reviews.

My son has now been at Friends for almost a year and I can tell you that he has thrived. Prior to…read morehim attending Friends he attended two preschools (both very high end--think Prim and Star). The last one was Prim and it was nice but it was expensive and the teacher turn over was great. I also felt it was too large for a young child to thrive. The one prior was Star and that was way too structured, crowded and my son was injured due to lack of supervision (to the point of an emergency room). I had to wait to get into Friends. My son entered during summer camp and then has continued thru the traditional school year. I LOVE the small family environment. There are four rooms, the doors are open, children interact and the teachers are amazing. My son loves his teacher Mrs. Rosario. I asked who was the nicest teacher and he said all of them. He is learning and you can see the growth each day. The teacher student ratio is small, the kids are all well behaved, they teach Christian values (but the student population is diverse) and most importantly, I know my son is in good hands. It is individually owned and not a franchise. Mrs. Friend is the owner and teaches. If you can get your child in, I believe you will find a great environment for your child.

My kids were both born in Florida, and our family has moved around quite a bit, so we've seen different school environments. That said, Windermere Prep has been much more than just a school for our family it has truly been an experience. The campus is beautiful. The classrooms and teachers are nurturing, and the school offers strong academic programs, including the IB curriculum. My children have also had opportunities to participate in international trips and other experiences that helped them grow beyond the classroom. At the same time, like any school, students still need to take responsibility for their own studying and effort. I've found several administrators and teachers including Mr. Villatico, Dr Fouche, Mr Muenker, Ms. Gemma very supportive and easy to work with. When concerns are raised, the school does respond and work toward solutions. We are proud to be Lakers.

Highly recommend, as this establishment is an entire life-changer.

This is my daughters school, she is in her 2nd year here. Great location in a great neighborhood…read more Love that it is not too far from home. The staff at the school are always helpful. I gave it 4 stars, because I think their student record system should possibly include a copy of their student ID for clearer identification. I understand mistakes happen, however, through personal experience, it would help if staff (both permanent and temporary) had better accountability of students as far as who is who, especially when medical issues arise. The only other issue here is parking on even nights. It's not terrible, but sometimes, I wonder how the parents of over 1000 students are supposed to all fit their vehicles in that small little parking area?
