Channelside is a Great School and Both our Children have attended since Kindergarten. Our Daughter is in 5th Grade and our Son is in 3rd. Grade. Our Children have done well and Have Grown in Many areas besides only Education. I tell people all the time that Miss Fuentes runs a Great Ship / Operation I truly mean that. All the Teachers since Day 1 have been Great. Miss Eberhart who is no longer there was the best introduction to the school system for our Daughter as we were a Nervous Wreck. For our son who had Miss Quinones in Kindergarten (no longer there also), also had a Great Introduction. Then all the teachers Following, Miss McBroom, Miss Delgado, Miss Yairi, Miss Javier, Miss McNeff, Miss Lusczler, Miss Bodie, Miss White, and My kids mention Coach W. is very nice although I haven't met yet I'm sure is Dynamite as well. I can not forget Mr. Bill who is always working, nonstop and is always friendly and the Kids Love and Respect him. I see all the kids having respect for Mr. Bill. I can't forget Coach Ford who besides being a Physical Education Teacher is great with all the kids, and all the different personalities of the Kids and the parents he manages perfectly with confidence, and respect and is always pushing the kids to be better, be strong, and push themselves. I trust Coach Ford in all aspects with my children to the Fullest!! A Big Benefit to the school and to the children that attend. He fills in many areas from what I noticed. Any Concerns I have I can always resolve with Coach Ford satisfactorily without having to go up the chain so to speak. Great Fella to talk with also. Point Blank,, He is Great with Each Student literally. Of Course, another family Favorite besides Coach Ford would be Shawn. I met Shawn when my Daughter was in aftercare and our daughter was in kindergarten. Another Great Asset to Channelside. I've never seen Shawn not smile. He's always Smiling. Good Moods are Contagious so a Few words with Shawn and you'll have a Good Day! This was a long review so my summary would be, Miss Fuentes Runs a Great Show, is a Great Leader, Has a Great Team Literally and Whenever My Wife and I drop them off we are Comforted that They are in a safe place and all will be ok Times are different from when I went to school and for sure didn't want my kids in an environment like that. So Thank you Miss Fuentes for What you and your entire team do to make sure our children and every Student are in a Safe, Healthy, and Sanitized Environment. For all The New Parents, It truly isn't a Great idea to turn Left into the Schools Parking Lot. Everyone is in a rush but when you do that you disrupt the pace. Go around the Block and get in line to turn right into the parking lot. Everyone is on their a way to work so we all must have patience with each other and help us all have the ability to get there on time versus an accident to hold it all up. Have a Great DayThe March ( Marchiano Family)
