Creek View Elementary School

Our family has had a wonderful experience at LWE. The teachers (and all staff members) are truly the best part of the school — every single one is kind, caring, and genuinely invested in the students. My kids not only love their classroom teachers, but they have also built trusting relationships with so many other teachers and staff members throughout the school.The academics are strong, and we have always felt that our children are being challenged and supported. Safety protocols are top-notch, which gives us great peace of mind as parents.Communication from the school is excellent. We are always informed about upcoming events, important updates, and anything else we need to know in a timely manner. They also offer great after-school options, which has been such a huge benefit for our family.Overall, Lake Windward Elementary has been an amazing school community for our family, and we are so grateful for the caring teachers, strong academics, and supportive environment.

The teachers and administration were so kind and loving towards my granddaughters. They took great interest in their social and educational well being. The girls adored everyone and looked forward to going to school every day.

This is a awesome school. There is a lot of support for socially and academically. Ocee also has great activities and achievements. As former Ocee student, I definitely got help and support. I also enjoyed going to school every day.

We've been a part of the Valor community for 5 years now, and the school continues to feel like home for us. Both our children (Middle and High School) have flourished here. The teachers pour into these students, not only giving them an education but deeply care about their spiritual and emotional health. The hybrid program has been a blessing to us, allowing our family some time to "breathe" on home school days. Work on these days can be completed at the pace off the child, allowing frequent breaks for our active child. The high school program continues to grow and we love seeing the growth of the athletic department. This is a wonderful, safe and caring environment that really cares about our children.

We have absolutely loved our time at McGinnis Woods. Our daughter has been attending since Kinder (is in 6th grade) and our son since Pre-k (is in 4th now). If you're looking for a place where your child is far more than just a number and has traditional learning values, we would encourage anyone to consider this school. We left MW when my daughter was in 3rd and son in 1st to try a year at our local public school, and within a month our children were begging us to go back to McGinnis Woods. Our exit exams from the year at public school actually showed our kids had regressed in just the one year we tried it. Needless to say, we went right back to McGinnis Woods and are so pleased. The principal is the heart of the school and her love for it trickles down through the teachers to the students. We have never felt more confident in regards to safety, education and love of our kiddos. Thank you MW!
