    "This is the best school in Homestead. Their fulltime gifted program is awesome. I have two kids in gifted and the teachers genuinely care about all their students. They love going to school. The only problem we have with the school is that they are constantly fundraising. Everyday they sell something different. My kids are always asking for money."

    "I was told many good things about Air Base Elementary School. I applied and my son was accepted. I was thrilled! When I attended the orientation, I could see what everyone was talking about. The teachers were friendly and caring. The principal was knowledgeable and kind. Everyone was enthusiastic and I'm looking forward to all of the activities that are planned for this year. This is a great start for my son!"

    "My daughter just finished her Pre-Kindergarten year at Air Base Elementary. Such an OUTSTANDING school! I would have never traded it for any other. Ms. Monge, her teacher, is dynamic! My daughter actually wanted to go to school everyday, even on weekends. She looked forward to being at Air Base and...so did I. Everyone there makes you feel comfortable. It is truly an Air Base family."

    "Air Base Elementary is definately a top notch school! When i first toured the school, I was skeptical because the suroundings of the school was not what i expected. I actually went to the school because i was recommended Air Base from someone i believe has great children, very smart. I was especially impressed at how much they knew about China and Africa. I was excited to tour the school, but when i arrived i thought, "nope, not for my child". I talked to my friend about this. In the end, i took my chances. Boy was i glad! I absolutely love this school! My children's teachers TEACH and care about them! My children are happy to go to school and there is always some type of event going on! Kuddos to all of the teachers at Air Base. Kuddos to the leader, Mr. Calzadilla, youre doing something right! I am very pleased with my choice! Thank you!"

    "I just called the school about preschools for my son. I had a couple of questions to ask....I was rushed off the phone, abrutly spoken to, told that they don't give school tours, and told to call back in March. Air Base is supposed to be a good school, but my interested sure dropped. If they don't even have time to answer a couple of questions from a potential parent, how are they going to answer my questions when I have them regarding my sons school work. Very disappointed"
