What people are saying

Saturday, June 13, 2015

I absolutely loved all the teachers and staff at FES. They were very supportive of my kids, especially my son who has Aspergers (though he wasn't diagnosed until 4 months after we left). Even after we moved to the Springs, I continued to drive them back and forth for a full year, then financially I just couldnt do it anymore. They still beg to go back to FES, and I have considered it more than once. Close Quote
