My son has had the worst time at this school. He cries about not wanting to go. He is on a 504 plan but I can't get help with that at all.

All my kids went through the EFISD system. It is a great and spirited community. The enthusiasm among the town is amazing. The school itself is mediocre in some ways but fabulous in others! Teachers are caring, but firm. There are some who will bend over backwards and some that won't bend at all. Typical of most schools. The Administration staff is wonderful. Now that Mr. Chapman is Superintendent of schools, he is making a difference. Many people want him gone, but he's the best thing that happened to EF. Once they got rid of the riff raf at the schools, things improved. The embarrassing nature that one principal left really put an image on the school that was lacking taste. As with any schools you have your good with the bad, but overall it is a great community which overflows into the school.

We recently moved to the area and this school is highly recommended by myself. To know that your child is observed daily by the principal and teachers and very little goes unnoticed, inside or outside the classroom, is reassuring to me. They will be called out in a loving and caring way. They not only teach reading, writing and 'rithmetic, but teach the whole child. I love that my child is in a safe and loving school that teaches a child to treat others as they want to be treated, respect, manners and how to be successful if you work hard. Thank you EFISD!!
