My child comes home crying everyday. She gets bullied for having her legs fractured and how shes poor. I keep telling her teacher and she just says well look into and nothing happens. Do NOT send your children here.

Homework? What homework my child never brings home anything except a crossword puzzle here and there. I have no idea why anyone would say this is a wonderful School. Last year neither of my kids were ever sent home with any kind of spelling list and then we received a flyer complaining that the children were having trouble spelling. They decided to send home spelling list period that lasted for an entire one week. After that week we were sent home another flyer that was informing parents, that they did not have enough time to do spelling... what a joke.

I guess if you can count your second grader not being able write her own name as being effective...sure, whatever you say. Most of these teachers are there for a paycheck and that is it.

What leadership? You can email the principal and never receive a response. I have actually had to go to the school and demand to see the principal in person before she would acknowledge that she's been busy and hasn't had time to get back to me.

I am glad my child does not have to attend this school any longer. I feel as though the school is so busy keeping up an image that they don't have enough time to actually teach and they certainly don't have enough time to deal with parents who are concerned.

Of course they do. Because they know that the more children they have on individual education plans the better their overall school grade becomes.

I used to go here from 1st to 2nd grade and this school was amazing. When I first moved to Florida I came from the Phillipines and didn't know very much English and I remember them taking extra effort to help me. There was no bullying from what I remember. Everyone was just so nice. By the way I'm in highschool now & this school really did leave a mark on me.

The school provides several opportunities for my son to have a holistic growth and development. The academics and extra-curricular activities are well balanced and the teachers & staff are extra helpful. Parents like me are engaged in many programs and activities to support our kids growth as well as our community. This year is my son's last year in this school and he'll bring many wonderful memories with him. Kudos to all the teachers and staff of HAE.

Really top-flight. Wonderful teachers in charming physical plant built in the early 40s and spotlessly maintained. Prinipal--RB Rhoades--is very progressive and loved by the children. Our child transferred to Hendricks from San Jose Episcopal Day School in Jacksonville last year. We found that the students at Hendricks were much better prepared than those at San Jose in math, reading and writing, and enjoyed much better enrichment opportunities. Why pay $9000 a year for a sub-standard private school education when you can send your child to a top-flight public school at no cost? Teachers email you at least twice a week and are always available to discuss your child's progress. I wish I could give this school a 6 out of 5. It certainly deserves it!
