| 7/30/2012 | parent | Miami Community Charter School is a great school. Its teachers are great with the kids and really go out of their way to help and incourage the students that need that extra little push. My only complain would have to be that, not enough parents get involved in school activities. |
| 10/21/2011 | parent | Oddly, a great comment will always follow a complaint. It's just the way things work. No school is perfect, that is a definite. As with any school do your homework as a parent. And unfortunately each school will meet each individual parents needs in it's own ways. Third grade isn't perfect either, nor is their lesson plan but after a year I am trying to make my child feel accomodated. I just do not want to be changing her schools in a short periodo of time. Hang in there those of you who are frustrated, at first I think all parent were thrown off by the book and library issue especially if coming from another public school. I too thought that charters were the best thing in the world, and it id true that you can see where the corners are being cut, but I try not to let it influence my child and as long as my child is being treated fairly by her teacher then I am happy, the other things will get beter Ther are working better but we are still a C school. Gateway is an A and I think Waterstone and Keys Gate are A's but they work on a lottery where as this school is accepting everyone. The school has grown in the last year alot more kids. I just hope they do not overcrowd |
| 10/20/2011 | parent | My son Evan started attending this school since the 2nd grade & he's in 5th now. I'm very happy with this school. The staff is very nice and they know and care about all of the kids. I love that every time I call the office they know my son on a first name basis. These days most schools have had huge budget cuts and that's why they ask parents to volunteer or donate copy paper. The fact is that this is a fairly new school and they are doing a great job teaching our kids. They have been able to improve a great deal with FCAT's in such a short amount of time. |
| 10/19/2011 | parent | This school seems polished on the exterior, however I am not to impressed with the school, it's teachers, nor it's academic plan. I am not to certain what the school does with the private and public funding it receives, but books are not given to the students, as in a "normal public school' a set is given to the children that is theirs to use during that school year. My child has not brought a book home. The High school does have books but they are only classroom copies which must stay in class. The elementary has a math book (stays in class( same goes for reading. Many of their "worksheets" are done with sharpies which are then copied, and I have found numerous spelling errors on these 'hand-made' worksheets. I would recommend staying away from this school. My son stated his fourth grade Language Arts teacher is constantly leaving the class, leaving the teacher aide to teach. Great school if education and presentation aren't high priority on your list. Homestead is a tough area to find great schools, but this isn't one of them by far. They have a new high school, again it's all shiny and polished for the public to see. No library, just a very poorly run school. |
| 4/19/2010 | other | They worked very hard to bring up their FCAT scores and succeeded! |
| 4/8/2008 | parent | i think it is a great school |
| 9/18/2006 | parent | This is a great school. it is more like a family they have everyone involved.The principal there is always involved with your kids progress. |
