  Horrible experience. The staff does not seem to care about the students.

  Absolutely amazing. My daughter has been to many schools. And we have finally found the perfect fit. My daughter is borderline Spectrum so will have many outbursts. Staff has been amazing helping her overcome many obstacles and to finally reach her full potential.

  The principal and teachers are fantastic and there are lots of extra programs for the kids to participate in.

  I have 4 years of experience at this school... with 3 children attending. We have loved the school! We are sad to be moving away, but I felt the need to write a review about our experiences there because I am finding myself in the situation of having to rely on parent comments to help me choose a new out of state school. Foxboro has had to deal with several challenges that might have made it seem less than ideal. It got overcrowded extremely fast due to the unprecedented growth of the area. BUT you can't find a better principal who will know your child's name and their siblings. The teachers are great! A lot of our positive experiences are because all 3 of our kids were enrolled in the FRENCH IMMERSION program. I HIGHLY recommend it! Immersion programs like these are a lot of work to get going and started, especially with all the challenges of the overcrowding at this school. But having this program speaks volumes to the dedication of the principal and his staff. Now there is a new school opening up close by, so everyone will go back to a traditional school year. Overall, I would definitely give this school great reviews!

  I love this school! I have two kids attending foxboro. One in fourth grade and one in first. We have amazing teachers that love the kids and teach them so much. You could not ask for a better principal. He loves all the kids and interacts with them always. During lunch he even has arm wrestles with them! If you volunteer in your kids classes he will know your name and thank you for helping out. The French program is amazing! My first grader walks around the house speaking French quite often. The only reason I gave the school 4 stars is because we do have low test scores. That bothers me, but I'm sure it has to do with several parents who don't help there kids at home.

  I was a little nervous to have my kids go here, b/c of the lower test scores from their previous school and the semi-negative comments I had heard about this school (through the grapevine). Both of my children's teachers, though extremely strict, have dedicated personalities to teach both of my children the best they know how. They do try. The traffic and student/teacher population are horrendous. Granted, they are building a new school to accomodate a majority of the non-foxboro students, it will not be ready until this fall (hopefully). So, dropping off and picking up kids is an event. Secondly, one of my children's teachers reprimanded my son harshly (making him sit on his knee caps for hours on end for rocking back on his 2 chair legs). What is this, 1950? He came home with bruises on his knees, which we tried to contact the teacher about, to discuss it with her. We left messages and she didn't call back until the next afternoon. Long story short, we reported it to the principal. He supposedly talked to her about it...crazy thing is, he has yet to call us back to resolve the issue. If I had the option, I would go to another school, hands down.
