Timbercrest Elementary School Reviews


Posted By: other Quality Score: decline 2009-02-17 “I'm a grandparent and retired educator. I observe closely what is transpiring around my grandson's education. I continue to be impressed each year with the dedication of his teachers and the inspiration they give him to achieve. This starts at the Administration level and goes all through the school. People who are unhappy due to no recess need to attend a PTA meeting and let the Administrators explain what is mandated by the State. People who complain about staff yelling, need to find out if their child is listening. During our vounteer time at Timbercrest, we have never experienced anything other than respect and kindness toward children. God bless you all for touching each child's life.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2008-10-12 “Vice Principal is uncaring, and lacks integrity. Front office staff is rude. However, teachers are excellent. Pick up and drop off procedures are an unorganized nightmare.” Posted By: other Quality Score: decline 2008-09-23 “Hello, My name is Carolyn and I worked at Trimbersrest Elem. as a ESE resouce Parafrofessional and loved everything about that school from the staff to the children.Icould not have asked for a better place to work.It brought so much joy into my life.Due to things out of my control I had to leave but the momories will be with me forever. Yes my youngest daughter is back from Iraq and ok. Thank you” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2007-08-07 “After my child's first year at Timbercrest I have had to deal with the front office personnel lack personality and at times are even rude to parents and students. I have experienced that first hand. One person will tell you one thing and than the next will say another. The teachers I have dealt with have been very involved with my daughters education. I am sure there can be some improvement on insuring each child gets their educational needs met. However in a public school system students tend to get lost in the classroom and as parents we have to insure we are on top of it.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: decline 2007-08-05 “My child has attended Timbercrest since Kindergarten and although my child has done well my child hasn't been happy since kindergarten. The office staff and teachers seem disconnected. I have had my share of visits and have volunteered on a few field trips and volunteered as well I just haven't felt very welcomed there and the office staff lacks warmth and a greeting. It feels mechanical there. I do like the smaller class sizes. The PTA is not run by its president well at all and the fund raising and the PTA needs a complete overhaul and they need to start over fresh while offering better fundraisers. The year book was more money this year and lacked style. Friendlier staff in the lunchroom would be appreciated as well. The food is awful and recess is a luxury.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2006-10-04 “My child has attended the gifted program at this school for 3 years, I love the way she is challenged in her studies, each year the teachers my child has had are innovative, challenging and understanding toward the children and relate well to parents concern. School, as most of Florida schools, are overcrowded, adding more and more portables, however, the teacher/student ratios are still pretty low, anywhere from 15-20 students per teacher, and many teachers have assistant and/or volunteer parents in class helping. My only complaints are recess time is limited to students, and Spanish is not available as it is in many other elementary schools, which I feel that in Florida, this is an asset to have available. Other extracurricular activities, such as music and art can also be limited to the students. The staff in the office is not as friendly as I'd like either.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2006-09-20 “student to teacher ratio is pretty good at Timbercrest. There is quite a few parents taht are seen regularly at the school participating making our school better. Both my children enjoy their teachers in music, art, sports. I would like to see more of what they work on in art. the school parking lot has always been a nightmare from either side of the school the parent loop is on.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2006-06-14 “Timbercrest Elementary is a great school overall. Lack of communication at the after school program. Even with this I will keep my son at this school.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-10-04 “Excellent academics! PE, music and art departments are strong! PTA is large and very active! Student support goes above and beyond state requirements. VERY happy - I have three children who attend and one who went there from 1st to 5th grades.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2004-02-23 “My daughter is in the 2nd grade and has been attending Timbercrest since Kindergarten. This is an excellent school and my daughter loves it! The after school care is extremely helpful to my husband and I since we are both working. My daughter has never had any problems at this school and her grades are alway A's and B's. The teachers have also been excellent!” Posted By: former student Quality Score: 4 2003-12-15 “When I was in Elementary school living in Deltona, I went to Timbercrest. This school meant so much to me. Years back, they brought snow for us to play in since half of us students had never seen snow! The teachers really get to know the students. I will always remember TimberCrest.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2003-11-04 “Overall I am extremely unhappy with this school. My kids don't get recess and come home stressed out from their lack of breaks. Staff is at times rude and sarcastic to both the children and parents. My kids are very unhappy and complain about 'being screamed at all day', and I have witnessed some of the screaming that they are talking about. My kids are learning, but they will never develop a love of learning in this school.”
