My daughter is in first grade at Ferndale Elementary School. She has had health issues since birth which have led to some physical and academic problems. She recieves PT and OT at the school. Her therapists are wonderful, and her teachers have always been very understanding and helpful when dealing with missed class time. She has been fortunate enough to have three wonderful teachers in her short time at Ferndale Elementary (she was held back in first grade). The compassion and care that they show her is amazing. They are truly great teachers and wonderful people.
I'm sorry, but I totally disagree!! This school has the best staff!!! All schools have their problems but nothing like what is being described below!!! The PTO (not PTA) and the district does not do alot of fundraising compared to other schools. The PTO is FOREVER looking for parents to help out. If more parents would come to the meetings and volunteer, maybe you would actually see how much time is put into the school. Box Tops and "soup" labels earn the school thousands of dollars a year in cash and equipment for the school! No one has the right to criticize if you are not helping out!
the school district fosters bulling, children get hit, kicked and smashed on buses, in halls etc, etc etc..... a real horror....
