Evans Elementary School Reviews


Posted By: parent Quality Score: decline 2008-07-31 “My son has been in three diffrent schools in his short school career.A total of one year is all it took to make me transferre him out. The office staff was one of the rudest I have ever experinced, I dreaded going in to the office for anything. FCAT was top Priority. Their outlook on a child a little out side the box and vary out going is harsh. I would never put my son back in that school.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 1 2008-07-31 “My son has been in three diffrent schools in his short school career.A total of one year is all it took to make me transferre him out.

We felt that the teaching was primarily FCAT related. We wanted a well rounded education for our children a we felt this WAS NOT a priority at EVANS. We felt our teacher was apathetic and detached. We got no support from the principle who seemed to view our concerns as a nuisance. We have since moved our children to different Seminole County School and are extremely pleased.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2008-05-23 “Evans is a nice looking school, the staff is friendly, but we have had a teacher that we did not feel was up to par two different years at this school. Evans is FCAT centered. They are not able to truly help when a child needs anything extra. It's a 'that's not my job' feel from some of the teachers.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 1 2008-04-17 “I have had several experiences w/ elementary schools, and I am very disappointed w/ Evans. The teacher (principle included) seemed to care primarily about the schools FCAT statedus and less about providing students w/ a well rounded education. My son was labeled as below grade level at Evans b/c he thinks outside the box, after transfering he was tested as gifted (this was from a different Seminole county school) tested as gifted at all other schools but b/c they think outside the box....not allowed at this school!!! He was later tested at another Seminole County School and placed in gifted math and is above grade level in all subjects...they took the time to get to know my child. If you want a child with strong critical thinking skills...Run from Evans...if you are happy w/ just good testing taking scores,and questionable teachers ..Evan is the place for you!!!!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2008-03-20 “Evans is a fabulous school. I came from the state of Massachusetts and my child was in a very high ranking district up north. I can tell you that Evans is academically in that same outstanding range. They truly work with the parents and have programs that enrich and assist all students to perform at high level standards. They truly stick to the motto no child left behind. Kudos to Evans Elementary.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2007-12-13 “I am very pleased with my sons teacher. He is in first grade and is struggling with reading and a few other learning issues. She is putting him on a program to help over come the problem. The school our older child attended at this age just said 'She needs to work harder' There wasnt the support system or programs that this school has. Thank you Mrs McRory for being a wonderful caring teacher and for trying to give the best to our son.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 1 2007-09-27 “achademicly this is a great school, only problem is if you don't get a good teacher you have no help from the higher office! The front office staff would be happy if there were no parents allowed into the school or on the phone! They are rude and unhelpful. This also includes the principal who lets them get away with it! Most teachers are great but as previously stated - soon move onto better run schools so each year you take pot luck! If we were able to send our kids somewhere else we would!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 1 2007-09-26 “My daughter went to this school and we had no problems. My son who has ADD went to this school and we spent years trying to get him the support he needed in order to be successful at Evans. Overall, we were very disappointed.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2007-01-18 “This school was supposed to be a great school due to it being modernized and the computer lab. It has been great for one of my children who fits the norm. However, my other child has not had a nice experience. If you get an experienced teacher everything is great. If not, you are out of luck. The teachers have very little flexibility in the classroom. Overall, we are seeking to move into another school system as Evan's is not prepared to deal with these issues.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 3 2006-09-28 “Overall this school is an OK school, it all depends on the teacher your child is assigned to. If you do not have the 'right' teacher and your child does not fit the 'Normal' mold then its not that great of a school. Their primary focus is preparing for the test(FCAT) which is why this school seems good from the outside, but if the school is that great then why would so many teachers leave as they had leave after last year.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2006-09-19 “We left a private school because so many of our neighbors raved about Evans Elementary. This is our 3rd year and we could not be more satisfied. The enrichment programs, media center and computer lab exceeded what he was getting at a small private school. The teachers have been phenomenal and very responsive to our son and us. He is thriving and we are so happy with our decision to have him go to Evans.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2006-05-09 “Overall, I'm not displeased with Evans. Academically, the school does well, but it teaches to the test and at least in our experience, it fails to take into consideration that these little kids need downtime, too. I am currently looking to transfer my son to another school, or else move outside the boundaries of Evans Elementary.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2006-02-27 “It is a great school if your child fits the 'normal' model of how a student should learn and act. The majority of the teachers are great and work wonderfully with the children in a conducive learning environment.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-08-29 “the leadership and organization at this school is excellent” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-06-30 “A wonderful school! My daughter enjoyed her few years at Evans.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-03-31 “This was our first year at this school. We have been in three different Orange County schools due to moving very often. Well we are not moving again. The teachers really care. The parent involvement is off the chart. I almost homeschooled my kids until I fell in love with this school.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-03-14 “I have nothing but positive things to say about this school.We came from a private school up north and was worried my daughter would not adjust.Her reading has improved,and her 2nd grade teachers are truly wonderful.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-01-17 “John Evans is a great school. The academic programs are right on target and as each year goes by kids are learning more and the previous class for that grade. I can tell because I have two boys and my younger one is learning stuff my older one had not learned at that grade. My son participating in a production of the King and I that was very inspiring. To see these kids performing as they did was amazing. I find myself very much involved in my kids education because you find out sooner than later how important it is to their success.” Posted By: student Quality Score: 5 2004-04-06 “My son has been attending Evans for the past 2 years and we love it. Kindergarten was a great experience and First Grade is even more fun, but more of an academic challenge. We highly recommend this school and next year (2004-2005) will be even better with the enrollment being reduced to 850 students.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 1 2003-11-24 “We have been at this school for 4 years since it opened. I think the academics are great! Good teachers! We have a child who is straight A's with ease I believe the teachers challange him still. We also have a younger one with developmental delays and is in the Pre-K program. Outstanding is not good enough for this group of teachers. So, whether your child is gifted or challenged, they are equipped to give them all the best education that your child can take.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2003-10-08 “This school is the best elementary school ever! My son is attending here for the first year and everything about this school is great! I love his teacher, his principal is awesome! What else can I say. Awesome school!”
