One of the most awful schools in Polk County. The office staff is a hit or miss. The principal only cares about her looks not about real problems happening at her school. The car pick up is atrocious! It takes a really long time to get your child in the afternoon because of how poorly thought out the car line "plan" is. When given a suggestion, they shot it down because they've "been doing this for a few years now and it works." Davenport School of the Arts line is just as long but moves very fast! Longest I'm in that line is 15 minutes AT THE BACK. Here, I have to arrive atleast an hour before school released and then have another 20-30 minute wait. They never have your child out there waiting either! The car line in the morning is a little better except if the car line is empty they still make you drive all the way around! Makes no sense at all. This school is beyond ridiculous and I'm so happy to say this will be the final year my child has to be there. Worst experience I've had!

Poor quality in leadership and follow through. Bullying more rampant than parents realize. One on one experience is very limited. Poor attitude towards parental concerns.

This school needs to be completely re-staff it's office personell. They are very rude and unhelpful. And when you have a problem, there is nobody there to help resolve the issue. The teachers are awesome and really do care for the students well-being. I love them. They go above and beyond to work with parents to ensure that the children have what they need to be successful. This school just needs to be managed better.
