Flying Hills Elementary School

Posted November 17, 2009

The Flying Hills FAME program was a big disappointment to us. The academics were very poor, and most of the arts activities had to be done at home, such as art contests, song preparation, etc. The curriculum is based on constant projects, so most of your weekends are tied up making animal dioramas, missions, etc. The teachers are not well-trained in the arts, so going to this school will not make your child a star. On top of this, the teachers expect the parents to grade most of the papers because they are 'too busy.' We pulled our child out in the middle of the year, and it was a shock to see how far behind he was compared to the new school. This is not a school I would recommend.

I have two children at F.Hills and both love to go to school. We have been highly impressed with all aspects of this school. From the wonderful principal, who is very 'hands'on'....to the superb teachers! There is much to be involved with here and everyone is welcome to be part of it...i would agree with the other parent comment that this is very much a school with a small town feeling...very close knit! I can't speak one negative! Good job teachers and Mrs. Cunningham!

This is a school with a small town feel to it. It has a huge volunteer network, and if anyone wants to be involved they need to just speak up and a volunteer position will be theirs. This school has the FAME program, where you can sing dance or work backstage, something for everyone. They have a huge Fall Carnival with rides, the children are allowed to wear respectful costumes for Halloween. They have a field day, lunch with Dad day, bike rodeo, school dance, band 4-6th grades, new field grass and playground equip, Father Daughter Dance, Talent Show...there are so many neat things, a great principal, and a dedicated PTA. The teachers are excellent. I have a high schooler who attended there and another current student and I can honestly say that the problems in the past with the FAME program playing favorites is just that-a thing of the past.
