My grand daughter starts Kindergarden this week I will let you know more how I feel about this school once she progresses through the school year. The only way I can post this is to select a star rating. Since I have no experience with this school as of yet I will start with the highest rating and go from there. Good Luck Old Fort Elementary I am hopping that you can live up to the 5 star rating I am giving you

"Everyone here is old fashioned and makes people feel welcome. Old Fort is full of elderly people simply because of how laid back it is. I’d Love to have a home here but so many people think the same as me is hard to come across one that’s appropriate for me. "
