English Estates Elementary School

Mixed feelings as our then 7 yr old daughter was constantly being bullied by her peers. We notified the teachers but it continued throughout the year. It was one and done as we placed her in a different school this year.

My 2 children have attended LKO for the last 3 years and I have had nothing but a positive experience when it relates to teachers and admin! The school has worked very hard to make sure as many kids needs are met as possible. Student population is varied and it provides a good environment for learning with peers from all different backgrounds and abilities.

Sterling Park Elementary has been an absolute blessing for our family (and our sanity). When my son first started school, he was non-verbal due to autism. Fast forward to now, and he is reading, writing, and communicating, basically doing things we once only dreamed about. The staff believed in him, supported him endlessly, and somehow made learning feel both possible and fun.My daughter is also a student at Sterling Park Elementary, and she has absolutely flourished. She’s growing academically, socially, and confidently, and comes home excited to tell us about her day, which as any parent knows, is a minor miracle in itself.Beyond the classroom, this school has created a true community. We’ve built amazing relationships with other families and with staff who genuinely care. This is a place where teachers know your child, celebrate their wins (big and small), and partner with parents instead of just sending emails with “FYI” in the subject line.We are incredibly grateful to be part of Sterling Park Elementary and could not recommend it more. If you’re looking for a school that combines compassion, excellence, and heart, with a little magic sprinkled in, this is it.

Horrible school! Registration was rude and yelled at me! When I said she gave me an attitude she said that I was lying and making excuses! Now I’m going to a private school and I’m living in the school zone! Do not bother with this school!

This can be a wonderful school for some. Our experience wasn't as great. The classrooms are really small with 20-30 kids packed in, making for a distracting environment. We also don't feel the value is there. It's one of the more expensive private schools in Central Florida and you don't get a lot of the experiences/extra curriculars that others offer, due to the small size of the campus. Montessori has always been a beacon for students who need special accomodations, but at this school it feels very rigid. Students are expected to stay quiet, calm, and listen perfectly at all times with no room for error or accommodation. They also don't have a good foundation/policy for discipline that helps the kids learn from their choices.

The sweetest and most special school. It has become like a second home to my children and I couldn't have better things to say. The school not only makes my children feel safe and comfortable, but they go above and beyond to understand each individual child's learning style and personality. My kids genuinely enjoy and look forward to going to school every day. The curriculum is incredible and I have seen such a difference between my young child that has gone to school there since they were little versus one of my other child that went to a different school for their first few years. I highly recommend.

Great school. There are 2 teachers in the entire school that i would replace. 1 in the lower grades, 1 in middle school. Other than that the staff is wonderful.
