The kids at Taunton Forge feel connected and supported. The faculty and staff work together to foster a special environment of family, caring and learning. All three of my children have loved their time at Taunton Forge.
It broke my heart when my daughter graduated from this school. They had the most wonderful principal, teachers and general attitude and respect for the children and parents. They didn't just pretend to listen and then give excuses. They listened and made changes when necessary.
Taunton Forge is a top notch school. The academic program is rigorous and includes specialists for learners who need extra help as well as for those who need extra challenge. Children have many opportunities to be creative and have their voices heard. Questions and discussions are encouraged in the classrooms. Children at TF are treated with kindness and respect by the staff. Everyone seems to be happy to be here. It's fun to volunteer(and lots of parents do)at TF because the staff is so appreciative and the students so well behaved. Our principal is wonderfully competent and has done much to make TF a bright,safe, and interesting place to learn. Our extracurricular program includes intramurals, chess club, computer club, drama, chorus and band. My three children have attended TF and loved it. They are now extremely competent and confident learners and kind, thoughtful people as well. Thanks TF!
After moving into the district, we have been more than pleased with Taunton Forge School. We feel nothing but warmth when we are welcomed into our kids' educations. The teachers keep the line of communication open and encourage our involvement as parents. The school feels like a family and has exceeded our expectations.
Taunton Forge is a great school. The staff and teachers are wonderful. The academics are great, but testing is not the only thing that matters. Parent involvement is very high. My daughters feel like they are at their second home and love to go to school. I would highly recommend this school.
We have two children in Taunton Forge,soon to be three. Our school is wonderful. The staff from Principal to custodian has a smile on their face and truly cares for our kids. It's a comfort knowing that our children will be taught and cared for. We feel that the academics are up to par. The teacher quality is exceptional. The teacher we have had show their love of children and teaching. We as parents are always welcomed into the classroom and are encourgaged to participate in the activities. Safety and discipline are two areas that do not go unoticed. I would recommend our school to all. It's a great school to have your child enrolled in. We love Mr.Hodges,4th grade and Mrs. Crowthers, 2nd grade.
The atmosphere at Taunton Forge is exceptional. Having worked in public education for 9 years, I feel my children are very lucky to attend such a wonderful, positive school. Parents are very involved and welcome too! Taunton Forge gets an A plus from our family!
