This is my grandson's school. He came to live in Merced last December(2012). He has brought up all of his grades and his attitude and outlook on life has changed for a more positive note, I thank the staff and activities for "bringing him out of his shell"!!!!:)

Great school..... The principal Mrs. Moser has done an outstanding job with the school, it is a very caring environment that enforces basic principles and good behavior, pushes them to improve their academic progress...

I have found that Farmdale has caring teachers and for students there really like the school. They have band after-school programs and extra help available. Of course, there are some students who refuse to perform and have parentsj who don't care. Perhaps the parent above should look in the mirror....She or he is not even able to write a coherent sentance - it reflects on the student.

I've only seen this school through the Challenger Learning Center's participation in their Family Science Nights and their teachers involved with our GEMS Nspires grant program. What I've seen is a lot of energy and enthusiasm directed towards getting students excited about science. The students and parents who have shared our Discovery Dome have been fantastic. So based on these experiences, I rate this school 5 stars!

This school has very rude teachers and staff.The yard duties are constantly yelling at students.They act like their for the kids but 2010 graduation for 5th graders was a disappointment. They did not make the children graduation from elementary one to remember rather than one that didnt cost any money and didnt waste no ones time.They have no communication with parents and always seem to side with staff rather than the kids regardless of ur problem..Mrs M is very stereo type and very dramatic..As far as education no tutor programs or extra help no after school programs..Basically a do it your self hands on self experience and i had 3 children go there and i refuse to have my youngest finish at farmdale
