I've been hesitant to write a review of Silver Lake Elementary simply because I always have a child in school here and it just feels... oogy somehow. This isn't a bad school and it's not a great school. My oldest attended here starting with kindergarten clear through 5th grade last year. In the later years, we definitely had more troubles than in the early years. By troubles I mean mostly with bullies and such. And his teacher for a portion of his 5th grade year was simply awful. A new teacher came in mid-way but in many cases, the damage had been done. My other son now attends kindergarten. Since my youngest will be in kindergarten the year after next, we're thinking of waiting it out until she's done with kindergarten and then moving both Coral Academy Elementary, but we may make that decision sooner if we need to. But that isn't to say that Silver Lake doesn't try. They are rather limited in what they can do. The budget for schools in this state is deplorable and the teachers and administration for the most part do their best with what they have. And some of the issues we had were issues any kid could have at any school and weren't limited only to Silver Lake. It's a convenient location, a nice building and a pleasant neighborhood. The pick up/drop off situation has improved over the years, thankfully and is no longer barely restrained chaos. ;) So that's a bonus. read more
