Lealman Elementary is a good school I always felt like I was taught everything I needed to know for the rest of my school career. I believe Lealman Elementary is the sole factor in me keeping a 4.0 in middle school and being accepted into prestigious high schools.

My child has been going to this school for the past three years and after doing some research, I found the school was rated a D and the only reason it's not an F school is because of grade protection put into place by the state of Florida. The percentage of children meeting the standards in academics is about %33! I can't wait to move into our new home and get her out of this school.
