I love this school! The teachers are dedicated and all of the staff are good with discipline. Also, my son's first grade class only has 15 students. His teacher, Ms. Marsico, is great with structure and communicates well with parents. The one negative thing about this school is the busing system. Students who live within 1 1/2 miles of the school must walk, so you see 6-year-olds walking home alone and crossing streets without crossing guards. I've also witnessed a few fights between children while walking home because they were unsupervised. Parents work now-a-days and cannot take off at 3pm everyday just to walk children home.

Our daughter has Ms. Bowser this year in first grade. Then have learned so much. With this being Ms. Bowser's first year at Ft. Crawford, I am so glad our daughter has her for a teacher.

this is our first year in the new ken/arnold school district. other than the busing issue to latch key, the teachers are wonderful. they have a set system for the children to follow from day 1. also they are rewarded daily with a green thumb when they have had a great day. which is a big deal to a 5 year old. the whole school is out for the childrens education, which is how it should be. now a days that is really hard to find. the school and teachers are wonderful.
