My child transferred here from a high performing magnet school. Th supports that I have observed from the minute my child enrolled have been something I’ve never seen. The school does a lot of good but us parents need to handle our children. They have placement events, weekly incentives for children, and a host of other things. Mrs. Mitchell sends weekly communication to keep parents informed. Their 8th graders have access to a free S.T.E.M. Camp! I’m sad reading these reviews. It seems like we tear down high minority schools. We send our children to schools. These people want our children to do well. My child talks about some of the normal things children do but she says they address problems at Adams.

Our child transferred into the 4th grade at Carrollwood K-8 in late November 2023. The kids are very clicky, they have their circle of friends and are not welcoming to anyone new. So far the teachers have been welcoming however there seems to be a hyper-focus on state testing which is unfortunate because all the kids are learning is memorization. They memorize things so they can spit them out again for the numerous state tests throughout the year. They are not taught how to think. The PTA is also lacking.

Chamberlain School has undergone a remarkable transformation over the last five years. Thanks to the leadership of the new principal, Jake Russell, the school has made tremendous strides in overcoming its low academic performance. The school's resurgence can also be attributed to the robust support of its alumni group and the wider community, whose involvement has been instrumental in driving positive change.The recent easing of COVID restrictions has provided a much-needed boost to the school's momentum, with the introduction of brand new sports facilities and a revitalized campus. These changes have contributed to a palpable sense of school spirit and optimism among students and staff alike.Moreover, with changes to school boundaries and feeder patterns, coupled with the adoption of strong academic programs such as 3DE and Cambridge curriculums, Chamberlain is now well positioned to provide an enriched and diverse learning experience for its students. This trajectory toward higher academic achievement is an encouraging sign of the school's continued growth and success.
