After multiple ongoing issues with Saddlewood, I have completely lost confidence in the school’s leadership, communication, and management. A recent dismissal incident was handled in an unsafe and unprofessional manner, with staff yelling at parents while students and families were still moving around vehicles. Instead of prioritizing safety and de-escalating the situation, the environment became chaotic and stressful, ultimately leading to my daughter being suspended.I do not agree with the school’s decision and believe the situation was unfairly handled without proper accountability from staff involved. Unfortunately, this was not an isolated incident. Since enrolling my daughter, we have experienced repeated problems with communication, transportation, after-school programs, academic credit concerns, and lack of follow-up from administration.As hardworking parents trying to provide for our family, we expected understanding, support, and professionalism from the school system. Instead, we have often felt dismissed, unheard, and pressured to withdraw our daughter rather than being offered real solutions. At this point, I cannot recommend this school to other families. The lack of organization, accountability, compassion, and effective leadership has created unnecessary stress for both parents and students.

This school was ok, the teachers even at the last day of school they be teaching T-T like its the end of school let ppl at least enjoy the last day but in overall its a good school they help you if you need help and its really organized.

This school is hands down the best school to go to if you are moving to Ocala. The teachers are wonderful, and my son really likes it at West Port high. Kids are very nice, and the teachers really care about the kids and take their time with them. This school is way better than Forest high, which is going down hill and west port is going up . I strongly recommend sending your Son/daughter to this high school :) .
