Riviera Middle School

My son was struggling so we moved him over to Blue Lakes. We have had a great experience! The principal is excellent and very involved. Some of the bad reviews are from a previous principal. The current principle is out there greeting the parents everyday and knows each kid by name. When my kid was struggling with emotional breakdowns during COVID, the school reacted immediately. They put his mental health first and he is doing great! I have had children in general education, ese classes, and gifted. I recommend all!

As a concerned parent, I feel the need to share some honest feedback about Cypress K-8. While the school has potential, there are serious areas that need attention. One major issue is the lack of fairness and equality among staff. Certain teachers clearly show favoritism, recognizing only a select few students while overlooking others who consistently go above and beyond, work hard, and demonstrate excellence.This behavior not only discourages students but creates an unhealthy learning environment. All children deserve to be acknowledged and supported equally, regardless of background or personal bias. It’s also concerning that some of the treatment observed borders on discriminatory, raising serious questions about inclusivity and fairness.I truly hope the administration takes steps to evaluate the current teaching staff, implement training focused on equality and inclusion, and create a more positive, supportive environment for all students. Every child should feel seen, valued, and motivated to succeed.

I’m writing this review with the intent of providing honest feedback in the hopes that it encourages improvement. While the school may have potential in certain areas, my experience with the front office administration has been deeply disappointing.Unfortunately, the people skills displayed by some of the administrative staff have made communication and basic interactions far more difficult than they should be. Professionalism, courtesy, and a welcoming attitude are essential especially in a school environment where families and students should feel supported and respected. Sadly, these qualities have been lacking.I sincerely hope that leadership takes steps to improve front office training and culture. A warm and respectful first impression goes a long way, and a school’s front office should reflect the values and integrity of the entire institution.It’s unfortunate that I feel the need to write this, but I hope it serves as constructive feedback. Our experience with Olympia Elementary’s front office has been extremely disappointing. The staff has consistently come across as rude, dismissive, and more focused on discussing their next vacation than addressing real concerns from parents.As a parent, it’s disheartening to be met with such indifference when trying to resolve an issue affecting my child. Communication should be helpful, solutions-focused, and respectful none of which we experienced during our time here.For these reasons, we’ve made the decision to remove our child from Olympia Elementary. We truly hope the school takes a closer look at the tone and professionalism being set by those who are often the first point of contact for families.

My son was attending at this school last year. And my appreciation is that they have good teachers, the after school team is very good and the director Marta Garcia is very involved in the daily activities, she knows the children and their parents. In our case we had no activities at school with the children and no contact with the PTA, I would have liked to meet the community

Snapper Creek is a hidden gem. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. The students and families at Snapper Creek make working here a blessing. The teachers and staff are dedicated to the students and families at Snapper Creek.

LOVE this school, administration, security guards and especially the teachers. My son is in the ESE program and has progressed SO MUCH in one year and a half. But i saw the progression in a few months after his start date, very grateful for this school. I love the support, commuication, and care the teachers and staff have towards my child and us (the parents), including on zoom calls. I couldnt be happier with this school.
