School Reviews
5 I like this school, teachers actually take the time with the students. I really like my daughters teacher Mrs. Etchierson 6th grade. I also like the idea of the teacher to give parents her personal cell number where I can text her with any problems or concers that I may have! Thanks! Fairmont School espeacially her teacher!!! :-) - Posted by Parent - Migue |
