Evidence of this My Daughter started Middle School this year and because of her 5 years at Choices was automatically put in the Advanced classes to include GEMS Math and again she is excelling.

My youngest went there last year for VPK and is now in Kindergarten. And in little more than a month he is reading books at home already at a higher level than kids his age typically read without help. Do they teach to the test (FSA) yep they do.

Come to find out (after several emails requesting to know more about their request for a SECOND assessment), they are very critical of your child. Preschool Director Betsey Vallery states in her email to me: "[Student] was very interested in the items in our classroom and such a sweet little boy. He did have difficulty following teacher one-step instructions and redirection. For example, when the teacher called [Student] to small group to draw, he ran around the carpet area. The teacher came alongside him and told him to please use his walking feet and modeled her walking feet. This gentle redirection is usually very successful as it's 1:1 in this assessment setting, but he continued to run." [Student] had just turned four only three days prior to the assessment. He's extremely responsive with adult direction, and I find this commentary completely inappropriate. As a former teacher myself, this is not even something that should be a concern. In addition, she states that [Student] didn't know how to write name, draw a self portrait, count to 10 or identify shapes, all of which he's been able to do for more than a year. I wasn't there in the assessment, but I do wonder about the effectiveness of the teacher to inspire participation. I felt that this was not an age-appropriate Pre-K. They want students that already know what they need to know for kindergarten so they don't have to do their jobs in teaching them.

While exploring Soldiers Creek Park I discovered an amazing educational resource for the students…read moreof Seminole County. As someone who works with kids, I was interested in learning about this unique and beloved program, the Seminole Environmental Studies Center. Seminole County's first Environmental Studies Center was a 1926 cottage that once served as Oviedo High School's lunch room. In 1976, the county and school district approved an agreement to develop 242 acres at Big Tree East into Soldier's Creek County Park which is part of Spring Hammock Preserve. School district science director Bettie Palmer and long-time Seminole League member Pat Burkett won grants from the U.S. Department of Interior and the Florida Department of Education to start the Environmental Studies Center. The school district paid to move the 1926 cottage to the park. When the environmental center officially opened in 1977, the old lunch room served as an office and classroom. A small staff including Pat Burkett, taught students about native wildlife, the water cycle and the benefits of fire. The following summer, the Department of Interior hired 40 Seminole County teens to work 40 hours a week at minimum wage building trails, boardwalks and a pavilion on the property. The new Soldiers Creek Park was the perfect place for an environmental studies center because of its many different habitats. These include oak palmetto scrub, pine forest, mixed hardwood hammock with magnolias, basswood and sweet gum, hydric hammock, cypress swamp, and a lake. All throughout were small sulfur springs. The old cabin was used until 2004, when the county built a new, 6,500-square foot center named for Pat Burkett who retired that year. Today the program operates as a partnership between the School Board and Seminole County Government. It has grown to include school field trips which are designed for students K-12 to help them learn about the environment and its importance in their lives. Scientific based learning takes place through hands-on, inquiry-based exploration both inside and outside the building. Inside the Center's Natural History Museum students can hold a snake, see an alligator and meet Otus the Eastern Screech Owl. Outdoors there is a learning laboratory. During the fifth grade program, students explore a variety of dry and wet habitats over two days. The popular wet day is known as the Mud Walk and included every habitat in the park. Through the years when budget cuts threatened the program, strong community support has kept the program operating so generations of Seminole County schoolchildren could enjoy the Mud Walk.
