My family really loved Faber School. My kids were challenged appropriately in their classrooms and they had lots of opportunities to do hands-on learning activities that got them excited about school. Both the teachers and the administrators are very caring and they do a lot to make sure that students have a positive experience. There are a lot of fun traditions and celebrations (cultural heritage festival, color runs, etc.) at the school that create a welcoming atmosphere for everybody in the community.
