The teachers and administration work hard to create a safe, welcoming, and engaging learning environment where every child feels supported and encouraged to succeed.The school offers strong academic programs, wonderful extracurricular activities, and meaningful opportunities for students to grow socially and emotionally. Communication with families is excellent, and the sense of community throughout the school is truly special.Howard Drive Elementary goes above and beyond to celebrate student achievements and foster a positive school culture. It is clear that the staff is passionate about education and committed to helping every student reach their full potential. We are proud to be part of the Howard Drive Elementary family!

Glad to see the school now has accommodations for special needs students. However, there is favoritism, specially with the teachers whose children are students. The parents and teachers in the school are do not follow the religious or catholic faith. The school is about competition and status. Very disappointed with the administration and the language arts teacher for 8th grade is horrible with special needs students.

Love this school and the community. My son loves his teachers Ms. Ortiz and Ms. Alex! They are so passionate about what they do and it is truly evident every day! The staff and administration are so welcoming and supportive. My son has learned so much academically, spiritually and emotionally! We are blessed to have found this school. Looking forward to our next year in K3

After a terrible experience in Coral Reef Elementary School, our experience at Village Pines has been truly exceptional. The approachable, strong, and reliable leadership fosters a positive, inclusive, and supportive environment that permeates the entire school. My child is thriving under the guidance of a talented, creative, passionate, and loving teacher who make learning an absolute joy. Every week brings special decorations and engaging activities and my son is genuinely excited to go to school each day! The small size (just 50 children total, with an intimate class of 5 in kindergarten for example) creates a warm, family-like atmosphere where every child feels seen and valued. We also appreciate the amazing and low-maintenance PTO, the cozy and well-equipped facilities (playground and classrooms), daily PE, and the welcome absence of excessive homework. If you're looking for a nurturing and enriching educational experience, look no further than Village Pines.
