Fire Lake Elementary

"One of the worst schools that I have experienced. The principal allows teachers to act inappropriately toward students by yelling, screaming, shaming, and embarrassing them. Students call one teacher in particular a witch and sneak behind her back. This was brought to the principal's attention numerous times and nothing was done about it. The principal decided to cover the scenarios and did not address the situations as they should had been. The teacher should not be teaching students and does not belong in the classroom, given the damage that she does to students' self esteems and concepts. I consider Fire Lake Elementary a mistake and a decision that my child is still working at overcoming. If you consider this school for your child please know that it could negatively impact your child."

"I have a now senior in high school that attended Fire Lake from 2nd to 5th grade. The teaches did a great job. It was a difficult time for our son who was trying to overcome many changes in from the first five years of his life. He looks back with admiration on the teachers and staff at Fire Lake. Our daughter attends Fire Lake and had enjoyed all of her teachers. I have heard stories of some troubled children in her classes. I believe any and all incidents have been handled well. There have not been any negative consequences that have affected my child. We find the teachers and staff quite approachable and easy to work with. It is not all sunshine and roses, but having children is not meant to be a cake walk. There have been issues in homework, focus and getting along. We recognize our children are not blameless and look to work with the people that take care of our children for eight hours a day while we work."
