Wednesday, April 15, 2015

I have had a great experience with my 2 children at East Fallowfield! The teachers are wonderful and very responsive plus manage to do a lot with very little (in terms of resources). The PTO is is very involved in helping provide educational resources and opportunities for the students to learn and grow. Many teachers have interactive whiteboards and devices for student use due to the parental involvement. It is truly a community that cares! I know the numbers do not look great but decades of mismanagement and loss of funding is difficult to overcome. Parental involvement is such a key to student success in any school. Close Quote
