Fitzgerald Middle School

This school has been the cornerstone for many low income children. A lot of people special assign their children here because of the small town feel. Unfortunately the numbers are low because of our disabilities and not enough children to offset the slower learning children. It doesn’t matter now because the county is closing the school.

I've worked at this school for 12 years. The staff are not only supportive to the students and their families but also to each other. We're on our 3rd principal since I've been here and she's been the best. Our school grade has been an A the last two years. We are very safe and we believe we are to love our students first then teach.

Daughter went to this school for 2 years. They only care about what their numbers look good on papers They do not care about the students well being and mental health. Their “amazing “ principle I’ve seen constantly treating parents and students like an inconvenience.

Our children were harmed by inadequate ESE supportFrontier Elementary failed to appropriately support my children with disabilities. Despite the school receiving sufficient and comprehensive IEP documentation, the ESE team minimized their needs, reduced services, and placed them in general education settings that were not appropriate for their disability profiles.During multiple IEP meetings, we asked what additional supports or options were available and were repeatedly told that nothing more could be offered. Access points were never discussed, and related services—particularly speech therapy—were reduced compared to what had previously been provided.This lack of appropriate placement, services, and meaningful discussion resulted in academic and emotional harm to my children. Families of students with special education needs should be aware that strong advocacy may be required to ensure their child’s needs are truly met.
