Very poor education, a lot of lack of ethics and understanding. The principal's assistant, Bodes in my opinion, is the worst thing the school has to offer. The security guards have no education and a very bad attitude. Out of 5 I give them -1.

My nephew had a horrible experience with bullying in this school. The teachers ignored it, the principal was responsive but did not reprimand or suspend the student that was doing the bullying. It was an awful experience for my nephew that was already traumatized about losing his dad to Covid. Awful school and do not recommend it.

Administration has blatant disregard and disrespect for faculty and creates a negative environment for our kids

Posted: July 25, 2019

This school has completely gone down hill. I had to pull my kids out of the schools. The new principal has serious issues on how she treats her peers and students. I don’t want my kids in this toxic environment. I don’t think she has the skills for the position she has. She treats the teachers poorly and the kids in turn suffer. I hope they do something soon because the intolerant attitude does not create a nurturing learning environment for our children.

Posted: July 25, 2019

They put all of the children together and cause problems for children without issues to learn. They do not give children with special needs the care that they require

Posted: July 25, 2019

Not at all! And the bullying starts with this new principal and some of the faculty! I’ve seen it first hand how rude they are to the teachers!!!

Posted: July 25, 2019

Not very good since they changed the principal. I will not return unless I see changes! It’s not a healthy learning environment for children!

This new principal Mrs. Simon is very unpleasant and she doesn’t look like she cares about kids.

I have been dealing with this school for many many years and always had a positive experience. The old principal Dr. Hernandez was always helpful and made it a point to be very loving towards the children. She was loved by everyone. This year there is a new principal who seems to have made it her mission to be a total pain. She is not nice, instead she is somewhat rude and I just hate the overall vibe I get now as soon as I pull up to leave my remaining children there.

Un amor! Ahora está en kíndergardens le tocó con Ms Bermúdez no habla nada español, dicen que es muy buena! Solo q no es cariñosa cn los niños ! Pero realmente la escuela es muy agradable!

Great school! I'm very happy that my son is attending this school.He previously attended the charter school not too far from E.W.F Stirrup and didn't pass the grade because they said he had a bad behavior. I decided to transfer him to E.W.F Stirrup after I heard a lot of good comments and my son has been "Honor Roll" almost every month. The principal and the entire team are great!!!

Buena escuela las maestras y maestros se encargan de que los ni os se integren bien a las actividades

I am very pleased with the school. Dr. Hernandez is great. She is a caring individual who shows that she cares daily. She walks around the grounds and welcomes parents with a smile.

Principal and Teachers quality is super and my kids love this place. God bless this school.

The music program is really good, but they do not have another extra curriculum programs, the principal is very kind, but some teachers are not good teachers but anyway they stay there per years...and years.

E.W.F. Stirrup is an outstanding school. My daughter just graduated from 5th grade and it was a bittersweet moment. From the administration to the teachers, this school has it all. I know my daughter will take with her many beautiful memories that she will cherish. Her Gifted program lacked motivation and creativity, but the music program made her experience extra special. Put your children there, you won't regret it!

Im in 5th grade and about to graduate, it has been an amazing 4 years at stirrup from academics to social skills and extra curricular activities i have never been so impressed. if only the teachers were easier to talk to......

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Stirrup Elementary!!!!!! My son will be graduating from 5th grade this year, I could honestly say that all his teachers have been great and have taught him so much. My two girls will be joining the Stirrup family this coming new year and can't wait!!!!!!!

Stirrup is an outstanding school. The teachers, staff and administration truly care about the students.They have so many advanced programs in both academics and extra-curricular activiities. Both of my sons attended E.W.F. Stirrup Elementary. I cried when my son graduated from fifth grade because I knew he was loved by his teachers. My younger son is a special needs child and his inclusion teachers have been a blessing. He has come this far because of their motivation and dedication. I can't think of a better place to send your children.

I love Stirrup because my two daughters graduated from this school and my son is now finishing 5th grade there. I was always welcome by the past administrators and I am sure I am also welcome by the present administration as well as my child's teacher. Frequent communication with the teachers is the key to my child's success in school.
