This is a great school with excellent educators, programs, administrators and parent involvement. The children have one on one computing, foreign language and a variety of core subjects that take them beyond grade level. They have an opportunity to be involved in many extracurricular opportunities, including Odyssey of the Mind, Lego tournaments, musical productions and many sports. I can't say enough positive things about Farwell Schools.
My children have attended Farwell since 1995, beginning with preschool all the way thru graduation....Farwell Elementary teachers provided them all with an excellant foundation, my high school students are now National Honor Society students and my other children are honor roll! I believe it is due to the excellant education provided at the elementary level.
I dont care for the principal of Farwell Elementary but my son's first grade teacher helped him so much. He is a very shy boy and his teacher helped him come out of his shell.
The teachers don't care. The Principal isn't even aware of half the stuff that her staff is doing. My son went from being a straight A student at another Elementary school to a D student after we went here. The teacher keeps telling me that it is my sons fault. I don't recommend anyone put their kid in this school. Put your kid in Clare schools they are better.
This is a great school! With great teachers and staff. the Sparks program, every school should have a after school program like this. My children just love the extra help they git to do their homework and the activities that they do. The teachers do a great job with all the students. They have provided the tools for my children to accomplish their dreams as an adult
We have had 4 kids go through this school and found the teachers to be caring and professional. The kids are very accepting of children of different backgrounds.
This is a great school! With great students and most of all great teachers and staff. Our family enjoys all the school activities. And we can not forget about the Sparks program, every school should have a after school program like this. The teachers do a great job with all the students, helping them reach their full potential. They teach the students to reach for the stars and give them every tool to do so !
