Read what parents are saying about Tuskawilla Middle SchoolMany of the earlier reviews on this school were from prior to 2019 under a different principal. Since then the leadership has changed. My daughter attended here for two years up until Covid shut everything down. Her experience was good. There was very little bullying that she witnessed or experienced. Most of the teachers were excellent, and the one class I had concerns about was changed after I shared my concern with the principal. The principal made himself available to me for a conference and took my concern seriously. My daughter made good friends and enjoyed her electives. Middle school is hard anywhere, but I really wish that GreatSchools.org would wipe the slate clean after new administration comes in!
Posted by a parent on 5/16/2022My kids both really enjoyed Tuskawilla Middle School.
Posted by a parent on 4/6/2022Not the biggest fan, from all aspects!!
Posted by a parent on 11/9/2020Our daughter has had a great first year. We have been pleasantly surprised!
Posted by a parent on 2/26/2019We want out of this school. It is a broken school. It is not an appropriate learning environment for our child. It is not loving, caring, compassionate, empathetic, safe, secure, etc. There is a lack of academic focus too. Our child is not getting a good education at this school. This school actually deserves a C minus or D grade as it stands today. We will see if this new administration will do anything to clean this school up and to fix it. It needs a lot of fixing. If you have any choice at all, choose another school.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMore discipline guidelines are needed. The school will honor and prize the bullies instead of disciplining, and teaching them. Principal needs to be more involved on the disciplining process instead of handing it to the assistant and hoping it will get resolved. They need to follow up with parents on the actions they are taking when concerns are raised.Parent Review11mo ago - Eastbrook Elementary School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHorrible administration has caused high turnover rate in this school. Classes are not fairly distributed as year after year instructional “coaches” pick favorites to give dream classes to while over saturating strong teachers to the point they eventually quit. Shallow leaders who only produce surface level change.Teacher Review4mo ago - Rainbow Elementary School

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI had two children enrolled in this school. One of them was labeled by the staff and other kids, and my other child simply did not make any progress academically. The teachers are not qualified. I found myself correcting spelling errors from them several times. The one good thing that came out of this school was that as a result I was able to find a loving and nourishing school for kids. To this day, both of my children remain honor students, thanks to their current school.Parent Review2mo ago - The Master's Academy

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe Pre-K assessment is overkill. They make parents wait in a small library, take your student for an hour-long assessment that over the phone was described by Megan Jones as to see how they interact with other students. Come to find out (after several emails requesting to know more about their request for a SECOND assessment), they are very critical of your child. Betsey Vallery states in her email to me:"[Student] was very interested in the items in our classroom and such a sweet little boy. He did have difficulty following teacher one-step instructions and redirection. For example, when the teacher called [Student] to small group to draw, he ran around the carpet area. The teacher came alongside him and told him to please use his walking feet and modeled her walking feet. This gentle redirection is usually very successful as it's 1:1 in this assessment setting, but he continued to run."[Student] had just turned four only three days prior to the assessment. He's extremely responsive with adult direction, and I find this commentary completely inappropriate. As a former teacher myself, this is not even something that should be a concern. In addition, she states that [Student] didn't know how to write name, draw a self portrait, count to 10 or identify shapes, all of which he's been able to do for more than a year. I wasn't there in the assessment, but I do wonder about the effectiveness of the teacher to inspire participation. She also mentioned that the application showed he wasn't potty trained, which is completely inaccurate. I remember choosing on the application that he was potty trained. He's been accident-free since 2 years old and has never worn pull-ups at night.I felt that this was not a normal Pre-K. They want students that already know what they need to know for kindergarten so they don't have to do their jobs in teaching them. They want kids without a pulse, who aren't excited to be in their classrooms and to be around new toys and potential friends. Another concern is many of the prospective students weren't from the Oviedo area. Their parents were driving 40 minutes each way, so your child making friends that they can play with outside of school may be an issue, unless you like driving.Parent Review2y ago
