My granddaughters ( all 3) have attended Fletcher since kindergarten and are now 2nd and 3rd graders. This school has went above and beyond for my granddaughters and our family since the beginning. I couldn't imagine putting them anywhere else at this point. They are doing quite well and are comfortable with the staff. I will admit I miss the previous principal,Mrs. Deaver,but find Mr. Haney to be just as pleasant and competent. He greets the children in the morning in the car rider line and sometimes in the afternoon as well. There are officers also around the school,and also help in the car rider line. I just can't say enough about them. I will be terribly saddened when my granddaughters leave middle school. Thank you Fletcher Elementary for making my granddaughters learning experience a safe,pleasant and exceptional one.

My kids and I love this school! The teachers and administration go above and beyond every day to ensure that the children are provided the tools they need to succeed.

I really don't know why this is the only school in Henderson County that cannot celebrate Halloween! I would love for my son to be able to wear a costume to school once a year, as I always did! I just don't have a clue who to talk to or how to change this or Anything, for that matter!Feeling bewildered.

1 out of 10, they are horrible and unfit to handle kids.

Fletcher Elementary is managed very poorly and lacks any leadership or vision to be what constitutes a school. This school uses policies and procedures only to do as little as possible for the children. I wished we had chosen a different school.

Three of my children attended this school, and it was by far the best school, overall, that they have ever attended. My only complaint is one second grade teacher (who has won teacher of the year ?!) who gave my so SO MUCH homework that he would cry every night and she would make comments about me to him. However the next year he had Ms. Patton and she made him LOVE school again. He still talks about her as his favorite all time teacher (he is now in high school). My daughter's kinder teacher was also super awesome and even came to some of her track meets a couple years later. The new principle seemed strict but nice. Everyone else (other than Ms. D) was the best and when they re-disctricted the school zone and they had to attend a different school, they were heartbroken. I only wish there were more schools like this one; schools that made children love to learn and attend school.

Fletcher Elementary is a poorly managed poorly led school that continues its tradition of just following policies and procedures. The school will not do something whether it is in the best interest of the child but will throw regulations and polices in your face. I wished we had chosen a different school district.

There could not be a better school to send your child to. I have been very pleased with the progress that my child has been making and I'm blown away by all of the neat things that he is learning. I am very pleased with the staff at Fletcher.

I consider myself very selective when it comes to my children's education opportunities. I had the option of enrolling my first child in a private school but decided to try out Fletcher Elementary. She loved it and now her two younger siblings are attending as well. They love going to school and the teachers are caring and attentive. The library is the nicest of Henderson County's schools. I wasn't expecting this from a public school and I couldn't be more pleased.
