West Zephyrhills Elementary School

As a former teacher, Woodland Elementary in my opinion was a horrible experience. I cane from a school that was above the state average and we excited to help them achieve success. However, I was shot down at every turn. I ended up leaving because it was a soul crushing experience. I talked to many teachers in the district and they had similar experiences.

My one child started at k-4 we had such a great experience (pre k teacher is awesome -Jennifer Miller) I decided to enroll for kindergarten and again another great year(Mrs Perez is awesome). I loved how everyone knew my child by name and how personal it is. Staff was very nice except for one person that was at the front and who no longer is(thank God).But, having been there through second grade I have to say the last two years there were not satisfactory at all.. the last two years the teachers were not a great experience . My other child attended 6th grade there. The teacher was great. However the setup for middle school is horrible! It lacking in a lot of areas,severely in the electives department. And technology there is none at this school for any grade! My child hated it. The school is very misleading on what they offer. They advertise that they offer way more then they actually do. There prices are going up tremendously and they are not offerning anything substanal. I did a lot of reasearch finding another school and came to realize that this school is not worth the price.

This daycare is horrible. The teachers scream at the children, it's dark and dreary, and they are not willing to address any issues. My son went there for four days. When I picked him up one day there were 17 children in room with one adult. After questioning the teacher student ratio I was told not to bring my son back. My three year old was in a room with children that are 8-9 years old. I witnessed the teachers playing a game with the kids that they'd see how long they could spin in a circle before dropping. They were then given gummie bears as a treat for finishing. This is not only unsafe, but extremely non-educational. My son would come home crying saying the teachers were yelling at him.
