School Reviews

My son started at Stephen Foster and in my opinion he did not have a good experience. He started off fine but as time progressed I noticed that not only has his self-confidence fallen but also his academic progress. He always seems to look sad and he always seems to be distracted, unenthusiastic and he never talk about what he has learned in school. I tried contacting his teacher numerous times to set up a meeting but I never received a response from her or anyone else. I decided to transfer him back to his old school where you can actually have a conversation with your child''s teacher about their progress and he is so excited. P.S The Assistant Principal at Stephen Foster is absolutely wonderful.
