"My child attended U.B. Kinsey for the first time this year. I thought that this school had so many different options and that is why I was honored for my child to attend. I tried communicating with the teacher and staff at Kindergarten round up, orientation and on various other occasions about my childs learning abilities. I feel that if you have a child in which you know is in the wrong grade and should be moved up then why not take the child out of their misery. My son unfortunately was left in a classroom where he was unchallenged and made out to be this big trouble maker. My overall experience with U.B. Kinsey was ok. They told you about every activity literally one day ahead and the times in which they held events did not agree with that of a working parents time. So I was never able to attend any PTO meetings and other meetings because I had to work. It is not a bad school but surely not what I thought it would be when I made the choice to send my child there."

"The teachers there seem very interested in only their class and not in the overall school. Most not working together."

"I think UB Kinsey is a great school. It's just seems hard to get the extra help that a student needs as far as School Based Teams are concerned. All the teachers that I have encountered over the years as a parent have been very good. Sometimes though it seems as if they don't take the parents concerns about there childs learning ability into consideration. A parent knows when there child is lacking in a (me anyway) subject but the staff seems to ignore what a parent is trying to tell them."

"I think that U.B. Kinsey is one of the best kept secrets in Palm Beach County. My son, who has special needs, attended the school for two years. The Principal, the administrative staff, and all of the teachers made him feel great about himself. They encouraged him both academically and socially. The Principal and the teachers make sure to find each child's gift. They nurture the children in a loving environment. In fact, in many ways, U.B. Kinsey is like a family. My daughter now attends U.B. Kinsey and I'm thrilled with her teacher. In fact, several of the teachers are the best I have ever seen in a public orprivate school."
