Banyan Elementary School

The school is pretty good but there isn’t assistance when you need you need help to resolve any situation between teacher/parent. The person who is in charge of before/after care services don’t help to resolve any situation that they did imprudently.

I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for the wonderful experience my daughter had under the care of Mrs. Deluca and Mrs. Spence. Their dedication, kindness, and the knowledge they shared have truly made a positive impact on her development. Unfortunately, due to our relocation to another city, she will not be attending this year. I can honestly say that it’s difficult to find a school as exceptional as Challenger. I wish we could bring the school with us to our new location. Thank you again for providing a safe, nurturing environment and for all the support you have given my daughter. Challenger will be truly missed, and I deeply appreciate everything you have done.

The front office staff is kind and courteous. They try to address all concerns or get you to the proper person. Admin will always call you at least once, when they investigate a problem, to let you know the outcome. My grandson had a problem on the bus, I was told the issue fell under transportation, so I had to take him off the bus. I had no other issues. The bus drivers need others on the bus to help. The teachers get helpers (teacher aids, paras, volunteers, etc.), the bus drivers should have help too. I am told they will have a cluster class starting this year, so I may be able to get my other grandchild to attend. I had to learn that off the school property Transportation and/or The City of Sunrise Police Department have to help/get invlolved.

My daughter have went to this school for the past 2 years. She graduated now. I wanted to put her in a religious environment so she can get stronger on her religion before leaving for high school. Unfortunately this was not what we got from the school in general. The school is very unorganized, everyone wants to rule it by their own rules, and there no respect for the principle word and rules. People that are not even In the school or teachers that drop out be going in and out as if it’s a cafe, which is very disappointing since it’s a school that has to have rules for everyone that no one can cross. The teachers do all sort of gathering ( food and other more stuff like baby showers party) in the school and like I said as if it’s a open cafe or a party place of any sort. They be so strict with student but when it comes to them they have the free well to do whatever makes them happy. I just want to point out that there has to be more rules even on teachers so basically everyone to follow. I personally don’t feel safe leaving my child in a place where there’s people in and out non stop that are not even staff of the school .

Estoy realmente feliz y agradecida por haber encontrado esta maravillosa escuela. En esta escuela realmente se preocupan porque los alumnos y los padres nos sintamos cómodos y felices. Son muy comprensivos con las necesidades de cada uno de los niños. La recomiendo 100%.I am really happy and grateful to have found this wonderful school.
