Miramar Elementary School

No after school support for my daughter. Or any other kind of academic support. And with this COVID-19 problem, there is even less availability from the teachers (until 12 noon even by phone!) I have to say, the average teacher salary of $50, 000 a year or more is grossly inflated for the meager work they do!

The administration is the worst! They stress less communication between parents and teachers. I have been very lucky that my child had an amazing teacher who kept me in the loop about my childs progress. The Principal is hardly ever around. The Vice Principal is not friendly and professional. Ive witnessed her yelling at teachers in front of other parents. There seems to be a trend, the good teachers leaving and new faces arriving every school year. That definitely is a bad sign letting you know that something is not right!!!! The one person who truly makes a difference at this school is Mrs. Hariott. She is the guidance counselor and a compassionate person who takes her time to make herself available for you and your child. There are a few others like her in this school, hopefully they dont leave.

This is the worst school I have ever gone to, I don't know if it is better now, but I doubt it. The staff, especially the principle was rude and unkind towards the students, as were the teachers, excluding a few. Not to mention, when the schools grade fell, many of the teachers blamed the students.

This learning community has a great history and a wonderful future. The office staff and guidance counselor are very caring and compassionate individuals. They are very accommodating and courteous. They also have a great sense of humor. The principal, Ms. Schlissel, is a sweetheart and a true professional administrator. She cares about the students and wants all of them to succeed. The teachers are a "family" and work together for the benefit of the students. This school is a blessing to the community and to the families it serves!
