This school is truly a community elementary school. Many children bike and walk to this jewel of a school. The administration and teachers are friendly and competent. the principal is very visible and responsive. Drop off and pick up for car riders is well-organized. The curriculum is challenging. Safety is a priority with on-site officers. The enrichment programs at the school add to its value. We will be staying in this school's area until our first grader graduates.

My daughter went to OVE Kindgergarten through 3rd grade and had a great experience. The curriculum and the school was awesome! They were rated an A school all the years she was there by Clay County and Florida Board of Education.

Oakleaf Village Elementary is a wonderful school! Mr. Martin and the administration team are always visible, approachable, and engaged with students and families. The front office staff are warm and inviting, making every visit a pleasant experience. My grandson’s teachers go above and beyond to keep me updated on his progress and are truly invested in his success. We couldn’t ask for a better school community — highly recommended!

I have had one child complete their elementary years here and have a second child on the same path. The administration and staff are truly one of the most open and supportive in the county. Student safety and well being is a top priority. Highly recommend this school.

This school has become a joke over the last year. My son has been bullied this entire school year and the principal thinks he can just sweep it under the rug and ignore it. I would not recommend you send your child to this school if you care about their well being. Mr. Martin actively avoids speaking to me so he does not have to bring the problem to light. It is not an "A" school at all.

My two children attend OVE and the overall experience is very positive. All of their teachers have been caring, supportive, and great at communicating with me. The school has many different fun events that take place throughout the year that boost school morale and community involvement. The administration is very supportive and always seen by parents at either parent pick up or drop off. I’m also very impressed with the resource team. They always go above and beyond to make sure that the students are well rounded.

Oakleaf Village Elementary has exceeded all our expectations. My daughter is thriving, and it's clear that the staff truly care about each student. Her teachers are fantastic, and it's impressive how many teachers, even in other grades, know her and greet her by name. The administration is top-notch, with Principal Jason Martin leading by example. He’s engaged in every event and makes it a point to be out at drop-off and pick-up daily, always with a smile. As a member of the Parent Faculty Association, I’ve seen firsthand the dedication of the teachers and administration, and their hard work is evident in the quality of education and community atmosphere they foster. We even bought a house specifically so our daughters could attend OVE, and we’re so glad we did. It’s a school where students, staff, and families are truly connected, and we’re proud to be part of the OVE family as Explorers!

This school is the best school in the area. The teachers are what really make the difference here, and the learning support provided to parents of students with IEPs is phenomenal.

Only thing I wish the school had more of was another facility built to support it's growing population rather than portables. And teachers need to be paid more everywhere!

The principal is only concerned about fund raising, a substitute told my daughter he was going to cut her hair off and she can take it home in a bag because she was twirling her hair. Would let her go to the bathroom because she didn't call it a restroom. My daughter made A honor roll they canceled the school awards because of a scheduling conflict so they say. I pick my daughter up from school, they made her sit in the day car line, so she never came out when I went to the office to find my daughter she has no idea where she was at, and they called the cops on me. Kids are constantly calling other kids racist almost daily the staff does nothing. Kids steal things and when the teachers are told they tell the kids to stop tattling. We get flyers weekly for fund raising but do nothing for safety for the kids what so ever. 3 years ago this school was good not its trash and my daughter will no longer be going to this school. We will be driving 30 minutes to go to a new school even when this one is a 5 minute walk

Teachers are never present when injuries happen. Not sure what they are there for...Apparently, safety is NOT their priority.

Posted: March 13, 2020

They can't teach what they don't have themselves.

Leadership LOL, start with the principal who has no spine!

No opportunities for advanced students. They will be bored.

Amazing! Kindergarten was smooth sailing with Ms. Robbins. She is wonderful and my child thoroughly enjoyed...loved school.

Can't say enough how great this school is. Kids are very well disciplined and motivated to do their best! Thanks to the wonderful, hard working, patient and appropriately strict faculty who not only encourage good manners but also able to bring out the best in every child. The school adheres to high standards of education under the leadership of an excellent and dedicated principal.

I can not say enough about how pleased I have been with the education my children have received at OVE. I love the teachers and staff, they are always so friendly and helpful. Bringing my kids here from a private school, I was very nervous how this school would compare, but it has more than exceeded my expectations. My kids love going to school here, they love their teachers, and all their resource classes. It is a big school, but with a small school feel. The principal and vice-principal are very involved with the students on a daily basis, which I think is great, and I know my kids love. I look forward to having my kindergartener and first grader here for several years to come. Thank you OVE for caring so much about your students and for giving my children such a great education.

I am so thankful for the experiences my two daugthers have had at OVE. My oldest started there in first grade for the school's inaugural year. I am sad she is leaving in a couple months to begin middle school! My youngest daugther has been there since Kindergarten and is in third grade this year. All the teachers have been excellent in educating the students on a very high level, preparing them for FCAT, and really giving them the tools they need to be self-sufficient students as they progress through the educational system. The resource teachers are absolutely top-notch. They begin using instruments and reading music in 3rd grade with the awesome music teacher. There is chorus and a percussion ensemble. They learn typing skills and how to make power point presentations in technology. They've made art work worthy of framing and decorating my home in art class. The prinicipals are always available and down in the trenches helping in the lunchroom and directing traffic during drop off / pick up times. I am so thankful that we moved to this community for this school. I feel OVE has giving my girls a great foundation for a lifetime of success!

This is a great school. Teachers of my two girls have always encouraged them to strive hard and be the best in what they do and also enjoy what they do. I make sure that I try to get involvement with my girls school academically and their extra curriculum classes. I remember one of my child was having difficult time with one of classes. I had meeting with teacher and child at the same time, the teacher was very helpful to assist my child in understanding every aspect of the subject. I definitely recommend that we not just rely on the teacher to teach our child but we also need to get involved in teaching our child in order for them to excel academically.

Posted: September 24, 2010

my child has been at this school for 4 years. the principal is fantastic and almost every teacher is excellent. if your child is gifted, you are lucky, the teacher here is amazing. there are many extra curriculars that your child can choose to participate in and the teachers that are in charge of those are dedicated and very good. this school is a BIG school but it's easy to get to know everyone and they really work with the individual child.

Posted: August 22, 2010

Good location BAD direction the school is great for normal academic kids if you have a ESE child this is by far the worst place to send them. This is a school that will pass your child and not actually teach them. Watch out if you have a ESE child. BAD BAD

My daughter has been at this school since it opened last year when she was in Kindergarten. She is now in 1st grade and is thriving under the excellent care she received under her Kindergarten and 1st grade teachers. My daughter has received academic achievement certificates in both Kindergarten and 1st grade and that is due to the excellent education she's received so far at this school.
