What people are saying

by a parent
Friday, August 10, 2012

VERY high classroom numbers........about 26 kids to 1 teacher. The principle is run too thin.....she is principle for 2 buildings (k-3 fairview) and 4-5 (adams) PLUS she is the curriculum director. The school is VERY crowded and they can not even add another teacher because of space. For a large school, it is run poorly by the administration.............on the other hand....the teachers are AWESOME and they are the only reason that the kids have a good education. There seems to be a large lack of unity between the teachers and administration and the policies seem to be left to each teacher. Overall, I love the teachers, but VERY unimpressed with the Administration. It is really a good 'ol boys club between the Super and the Board. Close Quote
