My daughter suffered a serious facial injury at Hollywood Central Elementary, FL on February 24th 2026 on the circumstances that raise significant concern about supervision and the school's legal duty of care a student not in my daughter's class was able to access her without oversight and caused an injury severe enough to fracture her eye orbit floor.Despite a visible head and eye injury no one contacted me the nurse documented that a parent was not notified which is I direct failure to follow basic safety and emergency response standards to make matters worse I received an automatic message stating my daughter was absent that day even though she was injured on campus- in alarming in the indication of poor supervision in inaccurate student tracking.My daughter followed school rules by not using her cell phone to contact me, yet she was not offered the school phone while in pain and afraid she was then forced to ride the bus home for nearly an hour with a fractured face before I learned what happened. This incident caused us to go to the emergency room after a CT scan she was diagnosed with a fractured orbit floor and injury would potentially long-term consequences trauma and permanent scarring she is now seeing specialists instead of preparing for her birthday. This incident reflects a serious breakdown in supervision safety protocol and parental notification- issues that carry real legal implications parents deserve to know when a school fails to protect a child respond appropriately to an injured or uphold its responsibility to maintain a safe environment this should NEVER happen not only to my child but to ANY student that attend this school. I am highly disappointed, the school system has failed us. this situation is a real eye-opener on negligence where our children spend majority of their lives to learn but in this case my daughter was too afraid to speak up. Parents show up for your children and advocate for your child they have a voice too

I really recommend this school to anyone thinking about coming here. I’ve been at Beachside since pre-K, and now I’m in 8th grade, so I’ve basically grown up here and know it really well.The teachers are super helpful and actually care about you, not just your grades but also how you’re doing. Beachside has also taught me how to respect others and treat people fairly, which is something really important that I’ll take with me in the future.There are also a lot of fun activities, clubs, and events, so it’s easy to make friends and be involved in things you like. Overall, the school feels welcoming and supportive, and it’s helped me become more confident over the years. I’ve had a really good experience here, and I think other students would too.
