Very happy with Foster school.Mr. Berringer is a great principal who goes out of his way to talk to the parents before and after school.I have never seen a principal who is so involved before and after school.My daughter has a positive attitude toward school and I can thank the principal and teachers at Foster!
Wonderful School! My daughter exceled this year at Foster. Mr.Berringer is simply fantastic! I have never witnessed such an involved principal. He knows almost all the kids names and makes every effort to say hello to all of them each day.
I am very satisfied with Foster School. My children have grown academically and as people. The teachers work together to make the atmosphere very welcoming. Thank you, thank you.
Foster is a wonderful school! The principal, the teachers, and the counselors care very much about the children. They go above and beyond what is expected to the benefit of every child. I have had children in other schools, and there is no comparison, district 142 is the best!
Love foster! Mr. Berringer is a wonderful principal and the teachers and staff are too. The children that attend Foster are so respectful and you can tell who attends Foster to the other schools in the area. Great job Mr. Berringer!!!!!!
Mr. Berringer is a brilliant principal. The children know him and respect him. He treats the children wonderfully. The staff is outstanding and the curriculum is world class. Oak Forest High School is one of the top 500 in the nation, and Foster and Mr. Berringer, starting these kids on the right path, is one of the reasons why.
My family transferred from Oak Lawn SD 122 where we had a outstanding school principal! Being in a new area, new district abd method of teaching, I am very satisfied with Lee Foster school. My child has excelled because of the excellent teachers and principal.
I went to Foster school so did my daughter and now my son, its like a family. As a parent I volunteer as much a possible, the teachers are great, the Principal is a very good roll model. I am very happy with Lee R Foster School. And all the teachers deserve a raise!
I have been involved with Foster since 1993 as a parent volunteer. The principal and teachers are very caring and understanding. I have never had a time when I could not approach either with a problem or a suggestion for change.
