Great teachers. I loved doing cross country here because the coach in 2019 made me feel like she really cared about me. She ran behind with me when I wasn’t able to keep up. I will never forget that she did that for me.

The staff genuinely does not care about the students or families. My kid was having bullying problems and we asked to switch classes and they said no. Assistant principal’s exact words “We can’t keep an eye on everyone that goes around your child” you’d think they’d have an alternative…nope.

Three years ago, we enrolled our eldest daughter at a local private school to enter Kindergarten, but then compared the reviews of that school with those for Winter Park Elementary. The two compared well, so after much consideration we decided to enroll her at Winter Park instead. Now our daughter is in 2nd grade and we have never regretted our decision. Winter Park Elementary is academically very strong and we think highly of all the teachers and support staff we have met over the years. We volunteer at the school and get to see the school operations first hand. We are very pleased with the quality of education and the classroom environment. We are also pleased that the student body reflects the diversity of our community around the University of North Carolina in Wilmington. Best of all, our daughter absolutely loves her teachers and going to school each day! We are very pleased with her academic and social progress. Our second daughter will be ready for Kindergarten later this year and we look forward to entering her at Winter Park Elementary with her sister. And this time we are now confident they will both flourish and benefit from a well-rounded and diverse education!
