Riverglades Elementary School

Principal refuses to make reasonable accommodation for my daughter with a disability. It’s ridiculous and honestly disgusting. They need to be forced to do trainings and ADA in this school.

My son has an IEP and is on the spectrum. This school has helped him excel and flourish. The staff is great and kind. The parent involvement is great in this school. Also the events they host make my son proud of his school he loves to invite family and friends. I encourage all parents looking to select a school that is built on kindness and caring.

If you care about your child. Run from this place.

One star. We deeply regret sending our child to this school.After we withdrew and enrolled him elsewhere, we were shocked to discover how far behind he was academically. He had been placed in higher-level classes, but at the new school he was immediately downgraded after testing because he simply didn’t have the knowledge. That was a huge wake-up call.Academic quality is inconsistent at best. Some teachers are good, others have attitude and low expectations. Leadership feels extremely weak and lacks direction.The business office is a total mess.The student culture was another major concern. Many kids are status-focused, materialistic, and exclusionary. Bullying and social pressure are real issues. If your child is kind, sensitive, or academically motivated, this may not be a healthy environment. We saw negative changes in our own child.Food is poor, uniforms were downgraded to cheap polyester, and overall standards seem to be slipping.Elementary may be fine, but middle and high school were extremely disappointing for us. We also know multiple families who have left.Do your research before enrolling. We wish someone had warned us.
