I have been part of the Force community as the music teacher for over a decade. We have a strong focus on the whole child through our social and emotional learning curriculum. We take great pride in having high academic and behavioral expectations for our students.

I have had a very positive experience at Force Elementary. I feel so lucky to be part of the Force community. While I am a teacher at Force, I will send my son to school there when he begins ECE. Force strives to meet the needs of all of its students socially, emotionally, and academically. It is a positive place to work and learn. The faculty and staff truly care about all the students in the building and work hard to build community. Small class sizes allow teachers to get to know their students well. Second grade and below all have less than 25 student per class! Interventionist in math and literacy work with students in small groups of 3-4 to help them get caught up if they are falling behind. A great special education team supports students who learn differently. If you are looking for a great neighborhood school for your children in grades ECE 3 year olds-5th to attend, Force is a great choice!

The only thing good about this school is that my son has been lucky enough to habe a couple of decent teachers. If you ever need to contact them dont bother you can never talk to a person. Also since my son started going there he has been bullied because he is not hispanic and does not speak spanish so between that, their poor reasources, lack of communication with parents i would highly suggest that you never send your child to this school!

All my children went to Force and I think it is a wonderful school! My youngest now attends and he is so motivated to learn and excel!! To me his motivation is a direct reflection of how well his teachers are pushing him and motivating him and just being there for the kids in general!! Love Force!!

My children attend this school, and it is a wonderful school. I know the principal and I have met her on several ocassions. Some of the teachers do lack professionalism, but overall the school is a great place or else my children would not attend there.

Not very happy with this school. My child started Force halfway through year above average and ended the year at average or below. My child struggled this year probably from being new but wasn't given encouragement, guidance or intervention to succeed. This year's teacher was hard to get a hold of. The only way to communicate with teacher was by phone. I left a few messages with no return calls. Homework assignments where chaotic. I met principal once. She doesn't have a strong presence in my opinion. Force's website is uninformative and unhelpful. On a positive note, my child made a few good friends.
