John S Irwin Elementary School

Poor. They are the first acredited public montessori school, but student to teacher ratios make it impossible for them to flourish as a montessori school. Too many adults are interacting with each child with inconsistent discipline techniques, making it confusing for a child. There are too many transitions during the day with a special on each day, making it difficult for children to achieve the focus needed for montessori education. Standardized requirements for kindergarteners means that the children are separated from the 3-6 age block (and their teacher) for half of the day. Private montessori schools are the only real place to go for a true montessori education in Fort Wayne. Don't have your hopes up about Bunche.

the teachers at HH are difference makers. Great blend of cultures.

We moved to this area a few months back and while my children have been to several other school before they have never had these types of problems. Constant bullying, teachers that do the bare minimum. Faculty that turns a blind eye to bullying. There is zero follow up from the staff concerning any of the problems I've brought to their attention. By far the worst school my kids have ever attended and should be shut down. We are literally in the process of finding another school to send our children. If my review doesn't tell you enough, just look at the scores for the school. It's falling in every way possible. Really sad.

My children attended SW, I always the support from teachers and staff. My kids loved the school.

This school has been excellent to and for my grandson.

Fairfield Elementary School is one of the best elementary schools in the FWCS system.
