I attended this school for 10 years pre-k through kindergarten and i recently graduated last year. I must say this was the most dreadful and awful experience my life have has experienced. I was treated poorly in my elementary years but in my middle years it was utter hell. The administration team treats students who are more popular then other kids with special treatment and are less strict on them compared to the students that aren’t as popular or don’t participate in school activities. The teachers were rude and unprofessional the only good member at that school is coach Davidson. He was the only good staff and was extremely nice. I was also made fun of and ridiculed in some of my classes and the staff and teachers did nothing about it. The lunch is also not well prepared i have experienced mold in my chocolate milk and raw bread on multiple occasions. This school tries to act like a great and good school but it is truly awful when you actually attend. To sum this all up please don't send your children to this god awful school.

We are so happy here! After coming from a local private Christian school in town, making the decision to bring our child to cypress was the best decision I’ve made for my child. My child found his love for school again. I am forever grateful for his kindergarten teacher, Ms. Shekarchi. She is warm, kind, and all of the kids love her. She is everything I could have asked for in a teacher and I am forever grateful for her. Cypress ridge also has the best PTO. I’ve never seen a PTO with such dedication and pride in what they do. The work they have done for the school and the students shows. We love the principal, Mr. Frana. He is always seen on campus and makes his presence known. Car rider line? He’s there. PTO meeting? He’s there too. I love how involved he is and you can truly tell he loves this school.Thank you, Cypress Ridge, for taking care of my child throughout the day in a safe environment and filling the school with loving and caring teachers.

This will be our last year at Grassy Lake. I would recommend this school to any parent I know. All the teachers my kids had from kindergarten to 5th grade have been supportive, open to communication, always available etc.

My son is now a senior been at Real Life since 8th grade, during his school years he has been to 3 private schools in Lake County, Fl. This is the best school we have ever had. The academics are amazing. They prepare them for college so well. All the admin are so responsive, senior year is hard and if I have any questions the admin team has an answer within a few hours of me emailing them. The teachers and the upper team is on top of it and they get to truely know your child personally. The spiritual growth they pour into these kids is irreplaceable!

I went here for a few years and its bad. The principle and former vice principle got arrest for a DUI on the same night a couple months ago. Alcalde is NOT a good leader she's barely even there and doesn't acknowledge parents. The only thing these people care about is money, the higher test scores the more money they get. The millisecond state testing was over they did not care about you at all. The only reason that the attendance rate is so high is because if your student misses 10 days in the year they will get a referral. They only teach what you need to pass the state tests. And they also force parents to give them hours of your time or hundreds of dollars or else your student wont be able to pass the grade. And WHOEVER they hired for the school counselor when I went there a few years ago, was not at all qualified to deal with serious situations. Check Facebook because there are a lottt of rumors of insane things the school leaders have been doing. Also be prepped for these people to constantly ask for donations or money (that they use for themselves, not a single students benefits.) DONT SEND UR CHILDREN HERE - Former Student
