Like in real life, she's learned to adapt and thrive with the current education model. JCE also has a much more well rounded curriculum, with resource classes such as art, music, computer, health, and PE - classes other schools in adjacent counties have cut out. With the caring teachers, bright environment, and an emphasis on family involvement, I wouldn't give this school anything less than 5 stars. Give the local school board and state and fed DoE a 1 star review if we're talking the politics of the current education system, don't take it out on this school.

The overwhelming goal is to maintain high test scores on standardized, computer administered tests…read morethat last about 2 hours and are administered to students about 4 x a year, beginning in Kindergarten. If a student fails the standardized testing in 3rd grade, even if that same student excels in all class work and class tests, failure on standardized testing dictates that student is a "mandatory hold back." I.e., the student will not be allowed to advance to 4th grade & will repeat the 3rd grade. Teachers' salaries are tied to students' performance on standardized testing. Too many resources are diverted into maintaining high standardized test scores but to what end? On 5/18/12 The Washington Post wrote "Florida's standardized testing program is being misused & has severely impacted student learning." So many resources are diverted into maintaining high standardized test scores, that there are woefully insufficient resources allocated to ensure School Administrators & Directors are trained in student safety programs such as SESIR & the District's own Code of Conduct. Clay & Duval Counties report SESIR incidents at a much higher rate than St. Johns County schools. I do not believe this is because there are fewer incidents in St. Johns County. I believe this is because such incidents are unreported based on my own recent experience with a JCE Administrator and Director, one of whom admitted she had no training in & therefore no awareness of the existence of SESIR; the other was aware she was a Mandatory Reporter but had no idea of the existence of SESIR. The safety of children should be of paramount concern and priority. Even if the test scores were not an invalid indicator of later success, what would it matter if schools are unaware & untrained in executing their duty to keep children safe?

Even so, I had to say that the VPK staff at Cunningham Creek is absolutely exceptional. Stacie Prosser is an excellent director and communicator that made the whole administrative side of VPK very easy. And Karen McKeon's commitment and passion for her students is unparalleled. If you are able to get your kid into Little Cardinal's Nest at Cunningham Creek, consider yourself lucky. Our daughter loved LCN every day and the program really prepared her for Kindergarten.

The staff was absolutely incredible and they made us feel like we were part of their family. Ms. Karen is an absolutely incredible teacher and my daughter still talks about her to this day like many of Ms. Karen's former students. I was absolutely stunned at the quality of instruction my daughter received at LCN. She quickly learned her alphabet and then learned to recite it backwards which I still can't do. Then she began to cite the Greek alphabet and I am a little ashamed but when she asked for help I had no idea what the next letter was. By the end of the year my daughter was beginning to read and she was beginning to solve math problems. I was so proud of my daughter and the staff at LCN and I would highly recommend them without hesitation.
