Vanguard High School

We live this school! Have not had any problems since attending here!!

The class sizes are fairly large leaving little time for one on one. The teacher my son was given had a lot of concerning behavior which I addressed several times. Now with less than a month of school left I finally feel like we are starting to get somewhere but its far too late. I spoke personally with the school administration before enrolling my son because of his health issues and behavior. My sons doctor advised me that my sons accommodations were not suited for him and that needed to be addressed as well. I am aware that every school has different funding. I am also aware that a school that wants to help will regardless. I do not have a lot of faith in main stream school system which I do my best to overlook. I wish there were more places available for my son and children like him to learn and be successful.

I love Wyomina Park Elementary <3 The students are well cared for and educated by their wonderful teachers and staff. I know my child is safe, cared for, and is allowed to excel. They have worked with our family to give our child the best possible chance to grow and excel. Our son struggled with school and behavior; they worked with us to set up an IEP and to narrow down his negative areas and experiences. We were able to get him diagnosed with ADHD and on the proper medication to help him focus. He is doing great now that he has ADHD under control. He still struggles with reading, but we are working on it! Wyomina Park gives me faith that he can be a great student and is getting the support and attention he needs. I hope my child is able to finish out his elementary career at this school. We do not want to move out of the general area because we love his school so much! I trust the teachers and staff and am grateful to everyone who helped him get to this point!

The teachers and administration truly love the students and care about their education. My child's education and behavior toward school has changed for the better in the last three years.

I just read the review about the ADHD child, and how the parent holds the school wholly & personally responsible for their child being passed on; while failing math. I believe that the parent should be the child's First teacher, and should partnership with the teacher to meet as best they can, the needs of each child. Just because the classes are smaller than in public school, does'nt guarantee that each child will learn & excel the "same". I have a 4 yr. college degree, but I did not recieve "Specialized Training" to deal with learning disabilities. You see "specialized training" commands more monetary compensation, and No school can afford to put every learning deficient child - one-on-one- with a specialized teacher . Fl. Public School- Salary $28K/Year. Instead, teacher's struggle with the political mandate of "No Child Left Behind" - And, All of the blame from parents. Be part of the solution for children, not part of the problem.
