I went to Folsom and it was thee best school ever! Now, had my children go and finally took them out of Folsom. No one returns calls or emails. Zero communication until the negative report card comes. Those teachers don’t appreciate how bless they are and should be ashamed of themselves. I sent a recorder in cuz my child was bullied, and not only by students, but in front of staff. And THEY DO NOTHING about it!

Great staff and loving atmosphere. This school really is like a family. My daughter is excited to go every morning. She is learning so much. The students are sweet and kind. We highly recommend Folsom.

My son was bullied for 3 yrs at this school in the mid 2000's. Teachers partook in the bullying, meetings with principal & staff went no where. No-one held accountable. The adults were worse than the kids at times. Kids verbally and physically bullied him. I ended up getting the state police involved to start an anti bullying program. The first meeting no-one showed up. Tells you all you need to know about the people running this school. Best decision we made was pulling him from the district. I urge you to review Mallory's Law bill 1790 that every school in NJ must follow for 2022-which holds parent and student accountable for bullying.

Excellent school, teachers and staff give the kids all they need to exceed. Many new programs added to the curriculum offering a variety of learning experiences for the children!

I went to this school. ALL the great teachers leaders and staff are gone. ZERO communication. Most of these teachers do not deserve their position. I am there to hear how they speak to OUR children. Inexcusable. No resolution. No empathy. No unity.. and their grading system and reason for the grading system is pointless.

Apparently you can only post positive on this site. ...this school doesn't deserve 2 stars. Very few good teachers who actually care about their students. PEOPLE A HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW that a teacher actual said to me: "A special ed student could have done better" and THATS not the only negative thing she said. DESPICABLE! Awful school.

My grandsons are students at Folsom School and the teachers and staff have gone out of their way to accommodate their needs and communicate with us. I would give them a very high recommendation for their concern for their students.

The school is mixed in its response to student needs. They do make an effort to differentiate classroom learning- but their fear of "how to quantify to the state" interferes with meeting the needs of the student. The child study team is especially poor in response and compliance.
