Twin Lakes Elementary School

This school has been a nightmare. The are constantly calling you regarding other people's children, they have lost my emergency contact card about two times and to make matters worse try to pin these inefficiencies on the parents. Save your self and your child's life and enroll them into a more promising school.

This school is unique in that it has a variety of programs. It has a full time gifted program for every grade. It also has a lot of clubs and activities that the kids can participate in after school for free. The classes include chess, art, music, garden club, cooking club and some others. That's pretty awesome for a public school. They also have family night activities like movies under the stars and a Halloween festival which is really fun. I think they could do a lot better addressing behavior issues and bullying issues. But on the other hand, I don't think that any public schools have the ability to really address the issue since they are unable to remove the problem children from the school. Overall, I don't think you could do much better with a public school.

This is the worse school my daughter has attended: first off i hate the uniforms, it reminds me of janitors and prisoners, Light Blue Tops and Navy Blue Pants. Also you cant park close to the school to either pick up or drop off, your obligated to do that very long line that takes for ever. At the award ceremonies the children are escorted right out as if there to get kidnapped. In her old school, I would meet her friends and even take pictures of them together. Besides this i never had any complaints from her with bulling or mean teachers but then again my daughter has always been an honors student and well behaved.

This school is going down hill since the new principal came here about 3 years ago. The principal is RUINING this once fabulous school. Overall, the school is not allowing the parents to participate in any school activities. Long gone are the days where you can take a picture of your child getting awards with classmates and teacher. Really who wants Ms.Bernal in the picture? not me. Also I remember being invited to go see my child in field day, well not anymore! She took that away from the parents too! God forbid you should have to speak to a teacher after school, she doesn't allow that either. Ms. Bernal you get an F on your ethics, manners and overall demeanor.
