Stephen Foster Elementary School

I have two sons who attend this school. One of our sons started here in kindergarten and is now in the fourth grade and our other son is in first grade. They both have had positive experiences. They love their school! There are many extracurricular activities and programs for students! The GATE activities are great , even with budget cuts! I am very happy to have both my sons at Stephen Foster!

I did some student teaching fieldwork at this school and found it to be excellent! They have an outstanding reward program for students that turn in their homework and stay out of trouble. I had the good fortune of attending one of these events and it was highly academic and enriching, alongside being a fun experience for the students. The students are enthusiastic and friendly. I wouldn't hesitate sending my children to this school.

Stephen Foster is a school where the teachers, office staff, and principal all take time to get to know the families of their students. Our principal of 3 short years has moved to Woodruff school (same district) and she went out of her way to encourage my daughter. My daughter is active in student council and the music program. On the first day of school my daughter (6th grade) was very upset that her 'friend the principal' was not going to be there for her last year at Stephen Foster. Which proves my original point: The teachers and staff really make a differnce in these kids lives and I'm very proud to be a Stephen Foster Mom.

Stephen Foster is a school with high expectations for the teachers, students, staff and administrators. Families support the school and it's programs by volunteering their time in the classroom and at activities. This is a great school and I am so glad my children attend a school where art, music, technology and special assemblies are still part of the curriculum.

This is our first year at sf. Registration and the first few days were hectic and stressful but everything finally calmed down and we discovered how helpful everyone was, including the office staff. School activities, fundraisers and pta have been enjoyable. Most importantly my daughter loves her teacher and school. Thanks.

This is a wonderful school. The Teachers are super and the office staff have always been very helpful with anything I needed. The School holds high standards. The parent involment is very high and the PTA is wonderful. My Son loved going to school here and will miss all the wonderful Teachers he has had. There is a music program that begins in the 3Rd grade with the flute-a-phone. The school has a great reading and math program. Children are given a chance to learn and grow is a wonderful safe place.

Teachers are great. Front office staf needs alot of attitude adjustments. Very uncaring attitudes and unwillingness to help parents...very very sad..no after school tutoring.
