If you want your child to be safe at school, do NOT send them to Fairland elementary. My son was assaulted and the Principal Mrs. James refused to do anything about it. When I finally got the safety plan, the school did not enforce it. The school aloud an adult to not only approach my child but aloud her to take pictures of him. The school is not safe and the principal is the worst. She has lied over and over to cover her lack of competence.

My experience has been worth it! I appreciate the teachers that are strong at this school to teach our children in a fun and exciting way. I had a lovely experience with my child's teacher, Ms. May; the effort, strong dedication and determination to teach my child with special learning needs was all worth it. The new admin. staff that really put their continue to efforts to make sure my child thrived in a learning environment that was challenging for my child really speaks volumes to support Greencastle needed. The admin. staff worked very hard to provide my child with the correct tools. This year was not easy but we pushed through with such great support. Working together with the school as a parent make it much more easier for my child and Greencastle did that this school year & I am grateful!!

0 out of 5 stars, after frequent meetings with staff(principal, vice principal, school psychologist, student counselor) a PARA EDUCATOR bullied and traumatized my daughter using fear tactics and power moves (she ripped up a book my 5 year old drew about her and myself for no reason since they refuse to tell me what happened), the investigation took LESS THAN 24 HOURS And the principal had the audacity to tell me that there was no evidence to prove the para educator did anything to my daughter. These are the kinds of people they have around our children. Then she had the audacity to tell me I don’t communicate with her teachers about her progress when it is in fact her teacher who refuses to respond to me! They try to label a kid who is just too smart for her class(as she and I have mentioned that she learned this stuff in pre k last year) as a special needs child. All the principal wants to do is get us to transfer her to another school instead of doing her job and focusing on making my child’s experience here better!

I have three children, and we've chosen Spencerville Adventist Academy for all three. Two of my children attended Montgomery County public schools for a portion of their education, so we have had a chance to contrast and compare. Spencerville Adventist Academy in outstanding on many fronts. My children are treated like individuals - they are cherished and academically challenged. The values they are taught are very good and the multi-cultural staff and student body work together well. It is large enough to have a great music program and sports, but small enough that students interested in being in the annual musical or on a sports team, can be. All in all, I highly recommend Spencerville Adventist Academy.
