My children currently go to IEF and really like the school. They talk about it their friends etc always. The teachers let them be them and not shut down their curiosity. The school does accommodate as needed for specific needs too.

Our son had an early childhood speech delay. IEF school worked with him day after day and with Occupational Therapy and the love of the staff and teachers. He started to speak. The school is amazing. The principal Armand Lamberti is unbelievably on top of his school. The progams and cariculums are customized by each teacher beautifully. Superb school experience for our 2 boys in multiple grades.

One of the best experiences my children have had is the school they attended. All the teachers are dedicated and all the therapists are willing to work with you. They were fully prepared to attend Middle School and socially appropriate on target with peers and respect.

Dedicated principal and excellent teachers. It is good to hold spelling bee contest every year to encourage students to learn English well. The slogans about the six pillars of characters and the characters of a good citizen are good for educating students. Could anyone send me an introduction of Irene E. Feldkircner? I think the school is named after him.

This school is great. The principal is VERY dedicated and the teachers are wonderful! The school offers so much to the students... even in Kindergarten. For instance the K students partake in physical ed. Most elementary schools don't have a real PE program for that age group. As a matter of fact, the school recently got recognized by the White House for their excellent PE program. My daughter is in Kindergarten and is enjoying the Glee Club, the after school science enrichment programs, and after school sports. The classroom is equipped with a smart board, which is more interactive than the traditional black board. They had a grandparent's day and parents day and my husband and I really enjoyed being in her classroom getting a feel of what her day is like. The parents are involved, they have a strong PTO but they are not pushy or over the top. The school offers diversity and doesn't tolerate bullying. I can't speak enough about the school. Coming from the Montessori background I find the curriculum diverse although it could be a bit more challenging for my daughter. Her teacher is very open to suggestions and communication among parent and teacher is fantastic

My son is receiving a challenging, yet nurturing educational experience at IEF! The teachers are innovative and creative. The school continually performs in the high 90's national percentage wise.
