"I have a son with an IEP, This school is supposed to have professional personal for children with special needs however the quality of education of this place is not what the children are supposed to have. The special needs teachers, speech pathologist, the principal, they all need training how to deal with children with special needs. The only way I was able to get more information about my sons progress was by written everything and having IEP review meetings, this is how I was able to get one daily note. The school district supports them on all of the mistakes and lack of professionalism. Bad school, if you have a child with special needs, try to don't put him/her in this school, you will waste the precious time and opportunity that your child has on their early age."

"I have never experienced a school so bad in my life. A child will learn more at a good daycare center. They are in the last month of school and my son has JUST started science! In the beginning of the school year I was concerned with not seeing ANY spelling homework coming home, I had called the teacher and her response was "we do reading and writing, thats enough" ????? In our old school my son had over an hour of homework. Here, maybe 15 min. I am now moving my family over the summer because this school is so terrible. Very sad, I now know why Palm Beach County is one of the worst districts in the state of Florida."

"This school.......is THE MOST TERRIBLE, HORRIBLE, SCHOOL MY DAUGHTER HAS EVER ATTENED. SOME of the teachers are disturbing creatures. They complain all the time about their jobs. Parent pickup is a hazardous cluttered mess. I have no idea who is bringing my child to my car. The grades are overall terrible. And don't even get me started on the principle and this annoying "code of conduct"......."

"I actually appreciate the school and code of conduct - I belive that if your child needs extra assistance then a regular public school will not meet his/her needs - Daughter has been in the school for 2 years and I love it - She has strived and come a long way and Being awarded for her good work - The Teachers she has and had have been wonderful addressed me with any concerns and the school seems well organized - my step kids go to palmetto and i have never seen such disorganization and lack of proper communication - But on this site have 5 stars seems like Bull to me and BFES has 3 Ridiculous - I enjoy this school"
