Addie R. Lewis School

I never thought I'd say this about a school, but it's straight up terrible. I hold my kids accountable for everything they do, but there's only so much they can accomplish unless they have the resources/support to help them. We took every possible avenue except for going to the school board. I am glad that we're PCSing to a better location with better school districts.

Leadership makes assumptions about the kids. My child was punished for something and no one took the time to actually find out the facts. As part of the leadership there, I would like to think they are also mentors to the children, so taking the time out to talk to a child and actually find out facts would be appropriate. I didn't want to believe the negative reviews, but they are pretty spot on. Stand up for your child and contact the school board if you feel something isn't right.

My son was in the Special Education Classroom. I have nothing nice to say, and any statement I do say will be deleted even though my accusations against the teacher and school are verified and accurate. If you have a special Ed student in Okaloosa county-- McCay and private placement.

My two elementary school daughters have attended Lewis for the past couple of years and we love it! The faculty and staff are warm, friendly, and easy to communicate with. They show a lot of concern and encouragement for the students.
