We have had 2 children attend FCE; one is now in high school and our youngest is currently enrolled. Our high schooler still loves going back to say hi to his former teachers - his favorite educators still teach at this school! We love the education and experience that our children receive at this school. As parents, our experience with teachers and administration has been positive. Over the years, we have only had one concern that was immediately addressed - the administration was fair and objective. We have been so impressed with the balance that the school has been able to achieve in ensuring safety for everyone over the last couple of years ... teachers, students and the community at large. We are proud that our kids go to FCE!

I believe this school is good on the academic level but believe the staff is overwhelmed with all of the disciplinary behaviors of the students. I do not believe there is enough supervision of the students on school grounds and there is a lot of acting out at this school which jeopardizes the safety of the students who attend this school.

As a former student (class of 2024) this place was an actual nightmare. There were a select few teachers that were wonderful as well as one counselor, but a majority of support staff and teachers were terrible and had no place teaching. When those teachers would be reported for discriminatory behavior and inappropriate language towards students, little to nothing would happen about it. I had to email my principle several times and mention going above the head of the principal all the way to our superintendent for the principal to bother for even a moment to have me called in, and even then it was an AP who saw me instead. When students such as myself were facing harassment and bullying from other students, teachers turned a blind eye and didnt say anything. They are not willing to accommodate students returning from mental health emergencies that left them hospitalized, I had to make up over a week's worth of work after being placed in the mental hospital involuntarily and all of it was counted late and against me. This school is atrocious as far as student care goes, dont send your kids here if you care about their well being.
