South Fentress Elementary School Reviews

Rated
by a  Parent Mamabear_of_5
I think this is a great, well run school.  The teachers are great at working with the parents, they accomidate for both disabled and gifted children, they offer tutoring, tons of after school programs including a bible club, save the children, boys and girls club, boy and girl scouts,ect.. Family Reading Night, and many different 4H project opportunities throughout the year.  For 2009-10 there will be a new principal and vice principal.  I would like to see more done for the gifted students(my daughter is in this).  They goto a class once a week for one hour and do extra out of school activities, about 1-2 a yr.  Made gingerbread houses one year, basket weaving the next year.  They only had one teacher for the whole county( she was awsome!)and she was over disabled program also, but that didnt give her much time with the kids.  I have seen this school grow from a new unsure school to a wonderful, safe place for kids to learn and play.  I give them a 10 and would reccomend them to anyone.

Example reviews:

"This school has absolutely changed my son's life! He is a brilliant kid who has a learning disability, and the staff absolutely understands his situation and teaches the way he learns! They are so insightful, understanding and capable, I feel lucky that we are part of that community."

"They have a newly built building which is absolutely gorgeous and very well laid out. In general the staff is caring, but firm. Only bad thing is that parent involvement is not encouraged. Yet!!"
