I have two kids attending the school feel the teachers do not do what they need to do in the classroom to hold misbehaving children accountable for their actions

Awesome school! Ms. Grimando is an outstanding principal that places the students needs and their best interest at the forefront of her job. Teachers are fantastic! They truly care and dedicate so much of their time and energy seeing the children succeed. Great after school clubs and so much opportunity for the students to build great friendships through extra- curricular activities.

My son went from k-5 and my daughter is in 2nd grade now. I cant tell you how much we have loved this school. The measures taken to make sure the kids are safe to the fun activities like Wolf Pup City, have made this school number 1 in our families book. Great Teachers and a Great Principal. Thank you!

I think one of the true tests of a school is whether students like going - my boys love going to school. At Wolf Lake we always hear at the end of the day what they learned and how their specials went. I love that they get art and music once a week! They also enjoy the myriad of clubs like running club and karate. They are excited for the future clubs like art, techno pups, music. The boys have seemed to find goals that are meaningful for them at school and are encouraged to be part of the community and excel. Their teachers are caring and compassionate as well as professional. They return emails, calls etc quickly and always have your child's best interest at heart.

My 4th grade son transferred schools a couple of months after school year started. As a parent I was concerned that the change of school and friends would affect him academically. I was wrong! All the teachers were kind and understanding. He was treated as if he had been there for years. He has made wonderful friends and loves the school!! From the moment you walk into the school you feel welcomed. Oh yes, and he's made honor roll every time!!

I appreciate the clubs that my child is in at school and the opportunities she has received through exploration on field trips. The teachers seem to be committed to learning for all students.

Both of my daughters attended Wolf Lake Elementary K through 5th grade. They both enjoyed their experiences and I have been impressed with the education that they received.

Fantastic school. we have 3 children enrolled there and our 4th starting next fall. One of our kids participates in the gifted program, and another has required additional; support for reading skills - parent/teacher/staff communication has been consistently great across the board, and our kids have enjoyed several extracurricular clubs over the years as well.

I love this school. My children have attended 3 elementary schools in FL due to a job relocation and this school is by far the best of all. My kids are excited to go to school everyday. The staff is great and the communication is outstanding.

We have a little one that attends the Pre K VE program. We were thrilled to be able to enroll our child in this program. With the dedication of his teacher, support staff, and Speak/Language Pathologist, our son has made leaps and bounds already this year. We have wonderful communication with the teacher, she is caring and compassionate. She has tremendous patience, and is excited when her students attain their goals. We can't say enough good things about this program and we are so glad it was an option for us. Great Job Ms. Greaves and the staff at WLES!

Great learning environment for the children, by skilled teachers. The PTA is very involved with school activities. Also Wolf Lake Elementary has great extracurricular activities, such as S.T.E.M.

WLE is a great school. There are always activities to participate in. And my son is challenged enough and performing at an excellent level because of his great teacher.

Wolf Lake has great teachers and the most amazing principal. Mrs Grimando has assembled a team just as awesome as herself. I have three children attending Wolf Lake and I have never been disappointed with the teachers. My neighbors seem to have money to burn because I cannot understand why they would put their kids in private school when Wolf Lake is an A school.

This school really cares about the children. The principal is the best we've experienced and we feel very fortunate. Having our child attend Wolf Lake Elementary puts our mind at ease knowing she is cared for and learning at a very high quality institution.

We have loved Wolf Lake Elementary since we started. Now, 4 years later my feelings continue. The staff and administration are wonderful and truly show interest in my child. Lots of PTA sponsored events make it easy to get involved. Truly is a wonderful school.
