Welcome parents and scholars to the 2025- 26 school year,

My name is Terri Glasford and I am the assistant principal of Park Lakes Elementary School. The Park Lakes is an outstanding school that provides every child with a safe and welcoming learning environment. Your child’s elementary school years are an integral part of setting the foundation of his/her educational journey. Park Lakes Elementary provides a rigorous curriculum and differentiated instruction that optimize opportunities for success inside and outside the classroom. We prepare our scholars to develop into critical thinkers as well as human beings who honor their community, school, peers, and themselves.

There are many opportunities for parent participation at Park Lakes. Please regularly check our website and Pinnacle to stay current with activities, volunteer opportunities, and your child’s academic progress. I look forward to building relationships with all stakeholders and encouraging your involvement in making Park Lakes the best elementary school in Florida.

Ms. Glasford, Assistant Principal
