I've already gone through four years of this school and in that time I have witnessed a lot of really horrible things like the male P.E. teacher staring at young female students while exercising and the male P.E. teacher walking into the female locker room while they are changing there is also the instance of when making a small mistake in certain classrooms you get nothing but attitude from the staff and teachers you can do very little and in some classrooms you can't even look or be near your phone I understand not wanting your students to be distracted by their phone but if there's an emergency and your family can't contact the school to contact the student they will need their phone now yes there have been some amazing teachers who deserve the respect of their students and 90% of the time those good teachers actually get the respect they deserve but as for all the other teachers they act as if they are owed the respect of the students just because they are teachers and staff members and when they arent given the respect they think they deserve they no longer treat you like a normal person they will have a constant attitude with anyone that has not given them respect and treat them horribly just like in my experience I am the type of person who only gives my respect to people who earned it or prove that they deserve it and that was only about 4 or 5 teachers in the entire time I have ever gone to any of fernleys schools and all of the other staff and teachers I did not give my respect to have treated me like I was worth less than every other student there take for example what happened in my senior year we had ACT tests coming up and we had been preparing for a couple of weeks on what would be going on during the testing day but as soon as the day came and myself along with a friend went to follow what we were told we were stopped and met with nothing but attitude for trying to do what we had prepared to do and in returned i had given that staff member attitude for acting like that and some how that staff member is still considered one of the nicest people here while i got punished and while in my punishment "aka apep" i was doing my work all class and had been told in the middle of the day to turn my computer and when i failed to completely do it i was asked again but the computer hit the wall on accident and was treated with nothing but attitude for a mistake so i than gave them attitude back and was punished again without being able to explain

My child just finished 6th grade at FIS and if Silverland is anything like it we will be looking at private school for 7th grade. One of the teachers was fantastic. The other one had great curriculum but no grasp of child development (the amount of work she required would be challenging for a college student) and no classroom management skills. She also frequently went into hysterical screaming fits and threatened to fail them all as she wept. The only thing she taught them was how to survive feeling utterly defeated all the time. Mid year I was so concerned that I called and asked to speak with the principal who just blew off my concerns and kept repeating what a great teacher she is (uh no she’s a nightmare). He told me to set up a meeting with her. I requested one and she blew me off. The teachers were always really late for parent teacher conferences and showed no respect for my time. They were very disorganized in general. Very poor school, send your kids elsewhere if you can.

Nothing but positive. Best school in the city
