I hate this school. I've never been in anything quite like it.

There is a lot of bullying that goes unchecked and nobody seems to care about it. Nursing staff make you feel like you are an inconvenience the entire time you’re there. I really like my teachers though. Shout out to Mrs.Bradly (history), Mr.Wong (math), and Ms.Ford (theatre) they make learning fun and I look forward to their classes.

The school is ok. It’s really big and nice but the students not so much. Also sometimes bullying goes unnoticed but the theater community is great love you ms ford<3

The school really speaks for itself. No disappointment here at all. The neighborhood is great which reflects in the kids. My kids love it here. People look out for each other. Really feels like a community here.

It was a 7 out of 10. It was fun and enjoyable but not challenging enough, also Sharon Sanchez(6th Ela) was rude and would "lose" the papers of students she didn't like. Also, bullying was not addressed very well

This school has some fantastic teachers in the 6th and 7th grade.

I love that new students have a "friend" when they first arrive to help meet other students, learn their way around & not to have to eat lunch alone. To any child starting a new school and being the new kid can be difficult.. Its great that the school encourages this buddy system (if you wish to call it that).

My kids have gone to Folks since it has opened. My daughter has since moved on to HS and was ready to participate in everything through all the things she learned at Folks. My son in now there and is in a pilot program in History. He is thriving and wanting to stay up to do homework where when he was in Elementary he struggled. He has found the learning environment inviting and the faculty and staff welcoming. Great School not to mention it is a School of Excellence.

Teachers use of technology is not used to enhance teaching only replace it. This may be average for the area, but we moved into the district and found this school to be behind where our daughter was in her instruction in Colorado. The teachers rely too heavily on the students using their smart phones to look up things and the administration is top heavy. Too many administrators and councillors drive up the cost instead of value.
