School Reviews麻豆果冻传媒>3 9/20/2018My daughter just started at farmington schools this year at Jefferson. Ive had quite a few issues from the day she was enrolled, one being transportation. I feel that the staff isnt too concerned with working with parents & communicating. My daughter has also complained about the teachers. She came from Hillsboro and in the 3 years she was there, I never had one complaint. Its still too early to tell how I will like the school as a whole with education, communication, etc.Review Jefferson Elementary School. Reviews should be a few sentences in length.

- Quality of academic programs, teachers, and facilities
