Bonaire Elementary School

My child has been at this school for 5 years. Pre-k and kindergarten we had no problems and excellent teachers that communicated greatly. Since 1st grade we have had multiple problems with proper communication with the teachers and them addressing parents concerns. I feel like the teachers let the electronics do most of the teaching and some maybe all start treating 2nd graders like they are in middle school, with way more than enough homework that can take my child almost 2 hrs to do after school. My child has become stress and also develop depression not just from the work but bullies that are not being address as they should be. I feel as the principal does not communicate or address parents concerns or she picks and choosen which parents she addresses, which is not ok. Especially when you leave messages and get no return call. Also, I feel this School cares more about money than they do education. Every week this school is asking parents for money and having multiple events in one week and dont even consider the parents that might cant afford or be able to Participate. And I know no parent wants their child to be the only one without or not able to Participate since they asked for money for multiple things, like I said in just ONE week, and not even considering how that can make some children feel when the parents cannot do it.Or the teachers not communicating with the parents and the parents don't even know about it until after the fact. I also believe that the school will pick favoritism's and the parents that do the PTO they will address their concern.But any other parent they put last , which is not okay nor is right. Now i am very familiar with this school for 18 years now . At first was a great school for my other child but have watch every year get worst with the principal and communication and the education

We love the school. As military family we traveled to many states and our children attended many schools. Bonaire Primary would be on top. Our child was tested the first week he entered the school and was recommended to attend the Gifted program. As a child with ADHD he gets all the support he needs and school staff is very responsive and proactive when we reach out. We have been really pleased and happy with our child's school placement and programs the school provides. Highly recommend this school.
