I was a past student from this school, and I think its probably the best elementary school I've been at. It has a great coach, A good counselor, and supportive teachers. I've learned a lot and have gotten the best support with the years I had there. Now I'm in high school and i still cant forget the memories from this school.

The school is so trashy and the food tastes so bad and its so greasy but the teachers are so strict and yell at students for getting a question wrong.

Its so disgusting how a teacher has to call me, complaining about my daughter and how she's tired of babysitting her all day, when they know she's special needs..then I'm forced to pick her up or she will get a referral, but this same teacher is the one that forced us to keep her in there and not place her where she needed to be, such a great school system

This is my sons first year at friendship and although the front office register lady was nice everyone else was just rude. Teachers don't pay attention they stand there talking to each other. Huge complaint about picking up my son from school. They need a better pick up system. I drive up coz I have 2 younger babies but I'm sitting there forever I keep pulling up forward and sometimes they tell me to go but I didn't even get my son yet. Stupid! So now I have to park take my 2 babies out and walk to get my son. Principle is not very nice! Friendship could be more polite.

I am a parent of a student at Friendship Elementary. Last year my child was struggling with the curriculum. We had to force them to have my child tested. So we could figure out what was going on. Unfortunately the school is more worried not of the students future they are more worried about the schools grade. The principal is worthless. She lost focus on what her job should really be and what she is there for. It's all a business to her and appearance.

Three great years in the past! This year the staff and my child's teacher is terrible! Forget whatever you ever thought a guidance counselor was for. No one is hearing my concerns as a parent. They are ostracizing my child and the tight daily schedule leaves no time for student to ask questions.
