Louise Foussat Elementary School
I THINK FOUSSAT ELEMENTARY IS A VERY GREAT SCHOOL. I BELIEVE THEY SHOULD OFFER AN AFTER-SCHOOL TUTORING PROGRAM FOR CHILDREN WHO NEED HELP IN DIFFERENT SUBJECTS. I WORK WITH MY DAUGHTER AT HOME BUT WHEN SHE'S AT SCHOOL SHE SAYS THE TECHER JUST EXPECTS HER TO KNOW THINGS AND REALLY DOESN'T HELP OUT. I UNDERSTAND THEY HAVE A CLASSROOM FULL BUT THEY SHOULD TAKE OUT THE TIME TO HELP CHILDREN WHEN THERE STRUGGLING.
