This school is amazing. The teachers and staff are very thoughtful and kind. They work really hard to ensure the students are getting the help they need and providing resources to help them from all aspects. I appreciate how in the loop they keep the parents via text and email, it really makes a difference when running on a busy schedule. They provide Family Engagement NIghts and provide a safe space for parents and teachers to stay in the loop together and answer any questions we have in regards to what's going on throughout the year. I highly recommend this school. I also appreciate that they have an officer on the grounds in the AM, PM & during events to keep the school safe. It makes a difference on our kids every day! Thank you to all the staff.

My son attended VPK inclusion and we had a fantastic experience in Ms. Brooke's class. She provided a nurturing and positive learning environment with the support of Ms. Ouida and Ms. JT, which allowed my son to blossom and grow academically, and socio-emotionally. Thank you so much, Ms. Brooke!

My daughters feedback is that she loves her school , teachers and friends. Totally recommend.

Definitely don’t recommend. My child only attended one year and I must say this was not a great experience. There’s a lack of engagement with parents. Lack of communication. Lack of efficiency during parent pick up and pick up at aftercare(21st century). I feel my child only learned the bare minimum but everyday was given candy. Lack of prioritization.

I enthusiastically award five stars to the Kindergarten ESE teacher, Miss D! She has exceeded all of my expectations with her exceptional talents and expertise. Miss D possesses a remarkable ability to bring out the best in her students, pushing them to reach their full potential. Her caring and compassionate nature shines through in her interactions with the children, making them feel valued and supported. Miss D consistently goes above and beyond for her students, demonstrating a true commitment to their success. Miss D has made my daughter confident in herself and has given her a voice. Keep up the fantastic work. Also a very big shout to Miss Jackie (cooper) we could not have made it without you the past 2 years! You have truly become a part of our family and have made a huge impact on all of us forever! Thankyou for everything you do!

I am giving 5 stars to the Kindergarten ESE teacher!! Our dear “Miss D” I’m beyond grateful and impressed with her talents and knowledge; she’s an amazing ESE teacher, she knows how to get the best out of the kids abilities and skills and is always trying to make them strive not to mention the sweet, caring and nice approach to the kids. She’s the kind of teacher that goes above and beyond! I was so skeptical to send my kid to this school, and l even tried all means to change her school but when l meet Miss D, l then finally understood why this was the right place for my kindergartner (ESE). Keep up the good work miss D!! You rock!!!

I am a 5th grade Math Teacher at Orchard View Elementary School. I enjoy teaching at Orchard View. The Administration Team and my Grade Level Team is a wonderful group of people to work with. The Administration team is very supportive to meeting our students needs. I am very excited about being at this school.

Our child is in their fifth year at Orchard View and we could not be happier. The principal, teachers, support staff, and resource officer are amazing. The school offers advanced programs and testing for gifted. The environment and culture of the school is friendly and intelligent. I can’t recommend it more!

One of the older schools in Boca. They spend almost nothing on the athletic programs and the facility, especially the fields, are bottom of the barrel. Decent academically..not very demanding. It's unfortunate they county doesn't put money into bringing this school up to date.

Our principle Ms. Garcia is amazing, on top of everything, always replies to emails right away, always gives a helping hand. The communication is essential and it’s excellent! Our teacher Mrs. Cicchillo is outstanding in every way. Thank you for being the best for our kids! Everyone in the school, we know, does absolutely the best by our students. I highly recommend this school.

OVES and Ms. Burgess had prive me wrong about public school! My child is doing way way better ( behavior and academic) than in a private school.

I have had three children at OVES and I have nothing but great things to say about this school. Mrs Montana is a phenomenal librarian/media room teacher. The PreK staff is so kind and has made my little love going to school. My middle son has been in gifted since he started there and has done nothing but excell with the help of his amazing teachers. Guidance counselor is amazing and they follow 504s and advocate for your kids. The office staff and cafeteria staff are amazing also. It's like a big family! My kids are so attached to everyone there. They especially love Mr Carl and Mr Patrick.
