4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageEveryone in this school should be fired and not be allowed to work in any public school in Polk county or state. My daughter has been going to this school for the past 3 years and let me tell you it has been the worst experience in our lives. My daughter has been bullied, jumped, and disrespected with no justice whatsoever. The principal doesn't do anything to resolve the matter, the counselors are useless, and the assistant principals and the dean are worthless. I have reached the department of education here in Polk county and placed a bullying report on the portal nothing was done and everything was dismissed. We were offered a scholarship for her to go to another school that was too far with no buying and not better than this school. This is her last year, and I can't wait till she graduates and is done with nightmares. Think about it twice enrolling your child in this prison.Parent Review3y ago - Eagle Lake Elementary School

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school deserves ZERO stars. The bullying and the fighting that administrators refuse to diffuse or intervene has gotten completely out of hand. Schools are supposed to be a safe place for your children to learn and grow. No one’s child should have to go to school on edge or in fear for their life everyday & it’s the ADULTS (teachers, administrators, school resource officers) that have a duty to protect our children from danger whether it’s their job to or not and that does not happen. They all should be ashamed of themselves!! SCHOOL BOARD NEEDS TO REANALYZE THESE SO CALLED PROFESSIONALS.Parent Review9mo ago
