This school is a great School, with great teachers. Which is the only reason why my sons are still going to the school. Because unfortunately the lady with the blonde hair and glasses at the front desk is very rude and disrespectful. She never lets me complete what I am saying without cutting me off and doesn't listen to anything I have to say. My son's dad and grandma have already had their words about me and apparently she is immature enough to listen to someone who would talk down about a child's mother and believe their side and has chosen to treat me as if I am a garbage mother. If it weren't for her I definitely would have given the school five stars because the school is great and the teachers are amazing, but she is terrible and they need to replace her.

I strongly suggest you explore other options. This school does not effectively support students with disabilities nor does it support gifted youth (I had both enrolled in this school). There is a high turnover rate with the teachers and the ones that stay are not there to support your child. The principal appears to be nice but is not supportive or helpful when there are issues. The have a zero tolerance for bullying but the teachers do not feel supported by administration to uphold this and my oldest was bullied and often witnessed her peers being bullied. I would not recommend this school to anyone and we are thankful we left, and have seen great improvement in our children since we left.

My son started Atlantis in the fall of last year. We are so much happier at this school! His teacher has gone above and beyond to help him overcome problems caused by his previous school. My youngest will start kindergarten there this fall! In the 3 years at his first school, my son went on one field trip. His class went on 2 really fun field trips this year!

This is by far the WORST school you could have your children attend. From personal experience with both faculty and students I can honestly condemn this school and recommend another. My son went from depressed and having low grades to having good grades and a better outlook after being removed from Atlantis. The parking/student pick up is a joke where parents nearly hit each other daily while other parkable areas are cordoned off limits. I have personally witnessed MAJOR security flaws and even spoke with the principal who has continued to do nothing. This is a horrible learning environment only focused on FCAT scores and NOT on education. Do yourself and your children a favor and look at another local school.

They say first impressions are everything. Well my daughter is a Kindergarten student at Atlantis Elementary School and let me tell you about our experience with the school in only the first year. First of all my daughter was with a certain teacher when the school year started and both my daughter and I really liked this teacher and thought we were going to be happy with this school. About 6-8 weeks into the school year on a Thursday my child s teacher informed me that my daughter would have a new teacher by next Monday. So they gave me a one day notice and said that there was no discussion about her staying with her current teacher. My daughter has also dealt with some bully issues at this school. I as a parent see a extreme lack of communication between the teachers and parents. I like that the school year is almost over so that I can enroll my daughter in a better school next year. To make the school better I would hire a friendlier staff that cares a little bit more about the students and parents having a good experience.IMMEDIATELY. My advice don t move to Port St John. Schools and the neighborhoods are horrible. I like that the school year is almost over.

We try and teach our children good values and to be honest, but whats the point because it doesn't pay off. Our child has been attending Atlantis since 4th grade and she has been on the honor roll, with no behavior issues or marks against her. We tried talking to the Principal for out of area approval, as we have just purchased a home in Titusville. We are not asking for special treatment, we are her transport to & from school. As she is doing Really Well this year, we wanted her to finish out her Elementry yrs there (6th grade). To be told "No" and All out of area students will be denied for next year.

I don't think the last review is true. I am very happy with Atlantis, their communication, and the principal. Both of my children have been on field trips this year and they were well organized. The teachers are great and very involved.

I am not very happy with this school. The lack of communication between the school and the parents is aggravating and unnecessary. The events never seem organized and neither does the principal. There are NO field trips due to the teachers and the administration. I am quite sad that I moved my children out of Challenger 7's district. That school was much better in staff, administration, field trips, activities, etc. etc. Oh...but it does look pretty.
