John F. Kennedy Middle School

Principal allows her teachers to be disrespectful to parents, school district will not / cannot do anything about it, it seems. There is one teacher that everyone bump heads with because of her choice of approach, she will disrespect you right in front of the principal and she would not do nothing. The teachers here cares more about money and what they are being paid more than actually caring about teaching the students.

Worst school ever! The principle and teachers do not care your child. My child attended this school for 3 wks. He is in the 2nd grade and was being bullied. When brought up to the teacher and principle, they did not do anything when confronted several times. When I asked the teacher about my childs' progress, the teacher told me that they do not give homework to the children, they do not get tested weekly on spelling and reading. Please DO NOT put your child in this school if you care about your childs' education and safety. Thank You, an Involved Parent

A Grateful Parent of a Washington Elementary GraduateOne of my children recently graduated from Washington Elementary in Riviera Beach, and while I’m so proud of their growth and success, I already miss the incredible support and care the school provides. Thankfully, I still have a child attending—and because of the leadership of Principal Dr. Vernicka Murray, I know my child is in the best hands.Dr. Murray is an outstanding leader who makes a lasting impact. She is present, involved, and deeply committed to every student’s success. She takes time to know the students and families, and she creates a culture of respect, learning, and encouragement. She leads with both strength and compassion, and it shows in how smoothly the school runs and how confident the children are.Thanks to Dr. Murray and her amazing team, my graduate left Washington fully prepared for the next chapter. My younger child continues to grow because of the strong instruction, structure, and support the school provides daily. Dr. Murray sets the tone and builds a true school family.I am so thankful for the care and dedication shown by everyone at Washington Elementary. It’s clear that under Dr. Murray’s leadership, this school is a place where children thrive!!!
