Great school! New principal is great and open with communication and conferences. You get what you put into the school and your children! Attend conferences and be open to suggestions and lead! Both of my children are high achievers and do well in class academically and socially. My only wish is a full time gifted program and more expansive extracurricular opportunities for the lower grades. The teachers are a wonderful! Supportive and very honest with your child's progress. The new iReady assessment tool used to gauge progress and academic achievement that replaced the IOWA assessment should be readily accessible to parents. The location is great and in the heart of Winter Springs. Sadly, we had a change in the crossing guards and wished we still had the second guard.Overall, it is a wonderful school with many caring and progressive educators. This is a gem that outshines all others!

I moved into this very small zoning area just to go to Keeth. My daughter is now in 2nd grade, and my experience has been nothing but wonderful. Any negative reviews about this school are likely a situational circumstance that you didn't allow them to correct. No place is perfect, but Keeth is close. Mrs. Hadden, Mr Halerz, Mr Gaffney, they are all amazing and truly show they care for your child. Communication is amazing as well. If I have a question, all I have to do is call or shoot an email. The new front desk lady is also very nice and helpful. She makes entering the bldg. delightful and not a burden for her. I say keep up the good work, and let stop worrying about who has money and who doesn't. Rich kids are as bad a poor kids in any school. I say focus on the parenting and not the income.

We have had a phenomenal experience at this school. The school welcomes and even suggests parental involvement which is a great indication that the school is interested in meeting the standards of parents. I truly believe the majority of teachers care about the students and put them in position to succeed; this is definitely the case with the principal, Mr. Gaffney. There are some things that could use improvement, as with all schools like implementing longer recess - unfortunately it is my understanding that this is the case for most schools With that said I can honestly say I would not choose another school if given the choice. We have been more than happy and feel very lucky that we ended up at Keeth. Most importantly my child has had nothing less than a good experience and is truly happy going to school.

Academically it's a good school but they're constantly begging for money! It's in an upscale area so all of the rich and snooty parents can give tons of dough and leave the rest of us alone. You'll see plenty of Lexus and BMWs in the car line! Parents are cliquish and if you're not in their clique your kid won't get invited to parties. My daughter is constantly excluded. For being in an upscale area, almost 50% of students are on free lunch. Behavior standards are too high for kindergarten, teachers are like drill sergeants, taking away recess because one kid misbehaves. I don't recommend this school.
