My child has had a positive academic experience at Sandpiper Shores Elementary School and the teachers and school environment have been good overall.However, the aftercare billing policy is extremely frustrating and, in my opinion, unfair to working parents. There appears to be little to no grace period for pickup, and billing begins very quickly — sometimes within minutes. It can also take additional time for staff to bring your child out after arrival.The aftercare program is already expensive, so the added charges feel excessive. I hope the school considers implementing at least a 15-minute grace period for families dealing with traffic or pickup delays.Aside from the aftercare concerns, the school itself has been a positive experience.

Three of my children have attended this school. They have received a vastly superior education to the one I got at another school locally. I can tell by the conversations they have with me about their studies and the fact that much of what I learned at university, they have learned buy 10th grade. There are a variety of ways to access college-level courses. There are some teachers who have been better than others, but there have been none whom I have any reason to think are not capable or not acceptable for any reason. We had a bad experience with one of the sports programs a few years ago. But that is far from a deal-breaker. I actually think the school dealt with the situation, but I'm not sure. My son was injured by another student on campus last year. When I talked to the school about the incident, I feel that the assistant principle handled it in the best possible way. My kids are not special-needs. They are mixed-race. I see that great-schools has this school listed as a 5 of 10 stars. I do not completely understand how that computation is calculated, but I can't imagine a public school being much better than this one. Our family being zoned for this high school has been such a tremendous advantage for my family.
