Loved this school for my daughter. We requested to transfer to this school because it was out of our zone and the one we were zoned for had a low school grade overall and the children were not so polite.Vista Lakes, I felt like my daughter was able to speak with anyone and feel safe about when she was going to school.Her teachers were great and the school always put on event for the family to attend.Would highly recommend this elementary school.

Beyond a terrible experience and very disappointed on how things are taken care of in this school. They are very unprofessional.

My son attended VPK program here. This is the best school ever. If your kid is going to VPK, let me tell you that Ms. Collins and Ms. Peraza are AWESOME. My kid did so well, thanks to them. The only thing that I did not like is where they are located. They are on a modular space on the back of the school.

My nephew has been a Vista Lakes student from kindergarten and know he is going to start fifth grade. I love the teachers, they are very sweet and care about their students. They keep in touch with the parents weekly and they answer your emails quickly. The school is always very clean. All of the staff members are caring and very helpful. I highly recommend this school.

I am a parent of a child in this school. I am very happy with the teachers and staff at this school. No school is perfect and not everyone will be happy with a school but I can truly say that this school cares about it students. The school has great PTA sponsored programs. The only thing I wish is that the school had greater parent involvement which is not under the control the school. Other than that I feel the school tries to involve parents by leaving messages every week and sending notices home. The 2 teachers we have had have been excellent and cared about how my daughter was doing.

My child has been to the school since it was built in 2006. I was happy with Ms. Shear as the principal but when Ms. Smith became principal I wasn't as happy before.
