A Seminole County Virtual School

We love our school! Teachers are incredible and admin has always taken any and all concerns seriously. Lots of ways to get involved

Absolute joke of a school. We moved to Seminole county for the "A+" school district and are so disappointed. My son gets bullied constantly with nothing done about it and they won't accommodate for IEP/504, they will just gaslight you about what they think your child does and doesnt need with unqualified people sitting in on the meeting.

We have had a truly wonderful experience with Woodlands Elementary School in Longwood, and I am very grateful for the positive impact this school has had on our daughter and our family.From the beginning, the entire staff has been welcoming, friendly, and supportive. Every morning during drop-off and every afternoon at pick-up, staff members were kind, organized, and respectful. Those daily interactions may seem small, but they made a big difference in creating a warm and safe environment for both students and parents.Whenever we had questions, concerns, or special arrangements regarding who would pick up our child, the staff were always cooperative, understanding, and helpful. Their communication and willingness to work with families made us feel supported and confident that our child was in good hands.The school also does a wonderful job creating a positive community atmosphere. The events and activities organized by the school were enjoyable, thoughtful, and helped families feel connected. One thing that stood out to me was seeing the principal personally greeting students in the mornings. That personal touch says a lot about the school’s culture and the care they show toward the children.I would especially like to recognize Mr. Gaughan, our daughter’s kindergarten teacher, who is honestly one of the best teachers I have ever encountered. His teaching style, patience, knowledge, and genuine care for his students were truly exceptional. He had a remarkable ability to make learning engaging, exciting, and meaningful for young children.He didn’t just teach academic subjects; he helped students develop discipline, responsibility, confidence, curiosity, and respectful behavior. It was clear that he cared deeply about helping each child grow, learn, and succeed. As a parent, I could genuinely see how much effort, dedication, and passion he brought into his classroom every day.Watching my daughter’s growth, excitement for learning, and happiness about going to school was one of the most reassuring and rewarding experiences as a parent. We are incredibly thankful for everything Woodlands Elementary School and Mr. Gaughan done for our child.I highly recommend this school to families looking for a caring, supportive, and positive learning environmen

This school has the most unprofessional front office receptionist and administrators Ive ever experienced. They are extremely rude and unkind when it comes to family engagement. Being that this is the first impression of the school outside of appearance, you would think they would get their act together. Would not recommend. And they also try to make it hard for minorities to enter here as well all while having minorities working for them. Its ridiculous. 0/10

My son was at the school for several years and we left this year. He enjoyed his experience, but it did not end well. The administration is very unapproachable. The teachers are constantly absent and random subs are thrown into the classrooms. One of the biggest issues at the school is that staff students aren’t held to the same standards as others. Open a yearbook- the staff children are everywhere in it. This is a problem with many parents at this school and has been voiced to administrators many times. The staff children also win awards when they aren’t deserving. It’s very deflating to others who work hard and are more deserving.
