Fair Oaks was a great school. I spent 5 of my elementary years there, and both principals were exceptional and knowledgeable. The sixth grade teachers were helpful in preparing students for junior high.
it's a great school with good support to their students.
Fair oaks soars above the rest! Our daughter has been here since kindergarten, and after 5 years, it keeps getting better. with all the PTA involvement, father/daughter dances,fall festivals, silent auctions, casino fundraisers, and after school activities, our daughter looks forward to everyday at fair oaks. Teachers prepare students for benchmark testing very good, the lesson plans are going at an excelled rate, overall this school is great! cant wait to have our other 2 kids attend. Go Falcons!
My daughter is in first grade at Fair Oaks Ranch. She came from a private K so she is K age. The Language Arts program is great and communication with parents is above average. One downfall is the math, science, music and art area. Compared to the Language Arts, I feel there is a need for improvement in these areas. I have also noticed, it is very easy to get a child from school (no identification required etc) which makes me a bit nervous. There are signs that say visitors must sign in at office but I have never been held to that. All in all the school is just above my public school expectation.
Couldn't ask for a better school!
Fair Oaks Ranch is one of the best elementary schools in the Santa Clarita Valley. I have been at this school since it has opened and have watched it grow to what it is today. Through thick and thin the parents, staff, and community has made this school one that anyone could be proud of. Fair Oaks Ranch does 'Soar above the Rest'
I love Fair Oaks Ranch! We transfered to this school mid year and my daughter is happier then ever. We came from Burbank where the schools are supposed to be great, they are not. Fair Oaks has gone above and beyond my expectations. Mr. Drew is no longer there and this school is amazing! The PTA is great, the music and science is great, I can go on and on. We are so pleased with the academics. We are so happy to be at Fair Oaks!
Fair Oaks Ranch has the potential to be a great school. The campus is beautiful, the teachers are great, and the parents are supportive. However, I would never trust the principal to make a decision in the best interest in my child and therefore my children will not attend this school until Mr. Drew is gone.
My daughter is going to be starting 1st grade it will be her second year at Fairoaks. I am very pleased with how much she learned last year. I also am very happy with Principal Drew. I think he has done and is doing a great job. I have met alot of the teachers and staff, they are very dedicated and helpful. I highly recommend this school.
If your looking for a school that thinkss that its better than the rest, well here you go, But they have a long way to go to prove it. The facility is clean and looks porestegious, but if they would just put some of that money where the training for the teachers and principal are, it would have potential. I wouldnt recomend this school to you and the biggest reason is the prioncipal (Mr. Drew) he doesnt care about the feelings of the parents when it comes to class placment. There are some teachers that are so derogatory to the students that they shouldnt be alound around children. When your child comes home crying anf the principal says too bad, there a problem!
