BV used to have a great reputation. Unfortunately, these past two years for my now sophomore student have been extremely disappointing. There are some very good teachers, but he’s also had two honors-level teachers who are disorganized and unhelpful. The social environment is terrible. Bullying, fighting, and vaping are rampant and nothing is done about it. Nobody wants to use the restrooms because they’re walking into a cloud of smoke and vapes and likely to be harrassed. I will probably be pulling my student from this school.

since the firs day I took my daughters to this school the office secretary told me I coulnt come to my daughters class, building, or soccer field. that my girls were old enough to take care of themselves. this school is so sad .

Two of my children went to Twin Lakes at different times. I believe Twin Lakes was one of the State's top elementary schools in the late 80's to early 90's. Now I have two grandchildren who are attending, and one soon to attend. Although I do not agree with some new learning curriculums and lack of others, I see the children's desire for being participants in their own education. I also see the pride they show during their their academic achievements. These are qualities in children who are college bound. What more can you ask for? Our children at Twin Lakes Elementary School, their parents, and family will look back and be thankful for the education received and memorable years the Twin Lakes Team provided. Performing arts and music should always be important in all schools.Never let the few rule the majority during educational decision-making processes.
