As a parent, I have several concerns regarding the school’s policies and overall environment.One of my biggest concerns is the apparent lack of formal incident reporting. When issues involving students occur, there does not seem to be a consistent process for documenting and communicating incidents to parents, which can leave families feeling uninformed and unsupported.I have also observed that students’ outdoor and physical activity time appears to be limited due to academic performance, homework completion, or classroom comprehension issues. While academics are important, children also benefit greatly from recess and opportunities for physical activity throughout the school day.Additionally, I have noticed security and staff members frequently using their phones while supervising hallways, which raises concerns about student monitoring and safety. At the same time, parents are not permitted to walk their children to class, making attentive supervision by staff even more important.While Ivette Castro has been helpful on certain occasions, I have found interactions with her to be challenging when concerns are raised or differing viewpoints are expressed. Constructive feedback does not always seem to be well received, which can make parents hesitant to advocate for their children.I would like to acknowledge that the principal has generally been communicative, responsive, and willing to follow through on discussions. However, there appears to be a culture among some staff members that feels unprofessional, including gossip and what some families may perceive as discriminatory treatment.I hope these concerns are taken seriously and used as an opportunity to improve transparency, professionalism, student supervision, and parent-school relationships.

not a good school dont send ur kids here the learning is horrible teachers dont care and are rude they dont care about students mentally or physically because they have bad nurses also they have no education for an "special" kids they be in regular classes with other kids the saftey isnt good someone threatened to shoot up the school last year and the student made many death threats to other students and they just dismissed it as if nothing happened, they was also a kid here who hit physically and sexual assulted them and the school silenced the victim.

Good morning,I would like to respectfully share a concern regarding the morning drop-off process at Coral Park High School.Traffic in the surrounding area is extremely heavy and often unpredictable, especially during peak hours and in inclement weather. Even when families plan ahead and leave early, there are situations where arriving exactly on time becomes very difficult.This morning, during rainy conditions, I arrived at approximately 7:19 AM and witnessed the gates being closed while several parents were still actively dropping off their children. Situations like this create unnecessary stress for both parents and students, and can also raise safety concerns when cars are forced to rush or adjust suddenly.I would like to suggest considering a small grace period—perhaps 3 to 5 minutes—before marking students as late. This type of flexibility would acknowledge real traffic conditions while still maintaining overall structure and accountability.The goal is not to encourage lateness, but to support students and families who are making a genuine effort to arrive on time under challenging circumstances.Thank you for your time and consideration. I truly appreciate the work the school does for our students and hope this suggestion can help improve the morning experience for everyone.
