Open Quote Absolutely love this school! My son is in 5th grade and is extremely happy. He has never had any issues with bullying, and his teachers have been excellent. This school has a long track record of excellence, and it shows! Close Quote

Open Quote That review by the person who submitted it over 3 years ago hopefully has put the past behind them. The scores speak for themselves - 97% than the rest of the state, great student/teacher ratio, parents who really want to be involved with their kids education, and with the current low enrollment, it's easy to transfer your kids into this great school without a lot of difficulty. We technically live in the Evans school area, but that school is almost 900 kids versus the 650 that are in Carillon. It's not a hard decision. My son is about to go into 3rd grade, and has been going there his entire school career and has never ran into bullying issues. We haven't had any issues with either the past or current principal and the staff is very nice and willing to help. This school was almost on the chopping block and we're very grateful that Seminole County decided to rethink their closing policies. Close Quote

Open Quote Many bullies and the principal is so rude! She never has time for anything to do wit the kids or parents and she is outright mean to the kids. They play favorites and act like small children when they are supposed to be the adults teaching kids to act a certain way. I cannot wait to get my child out of this school. Moved to this area thinking it would HELP not be worse in teaching quality and snobby parents/teachers ans students! Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
