Read what parents are saying about Fort River Elementary SchoolI occasionally substitute at Fort River and am always delighted by the friendly positive attitude of staff and students. The teachers leave wonderful plans and information that shows how deeply they care about their students. Teachers in neighboring classrooms are always quick to lend a hand when the rare problem occurs. Students are so helpful in explaining their classroom teacher's routines. I always look forward to the next opportunity to spend a day at Fort River School.

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI had my daughter attending since she was 5. She is first grade now and plan on attending this school until grade 6. It's a good environment. The director (Kelly) is nice and tries to accommodate all needs. Classes are clean, curriculum is great, environment is friendly. There are many ways for parents to get involved and for kids to make friends and know other kids at different levels. I would warmly recommend this school. If you care about the education your child receives, you would want to consider this school.Parent Review6mo ago - The Common School

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThere aren’t enough words for me to describe how truly wonderful this school is. My daughter started there in nursery school and will soon be entering into their 5th grade program. Not only has my child been offered a challenging, progressive academic curriculum, but she has also been offered a safe space for her to continuously grow as a thoughtful, caring, insightful, inclusive, funny, bright and most importantly, a happy child. The Common School has not only supported my daughter, but our entire family as well. I noticed one previous comment around a lacking curriculum and I cannot stress enough the incredible learning my child has been offered at this school. Math classes offering high levels of academics that far surpassed the expectations of my math teacher husband. In depth studies around countries, cultures, wildlife, ocean life, and Greek mythology, just to name a few. This school has beyond surpassed any expectations around learning, both academically as well as socially and emotionally. I have worked closely with not only with this schools parent community, but also with the staff, teachers, volunteers and even the head(s) of school and I can honestly say the level of dedication each one of these community members brings to this school is far beyond what should ever be expected. I am thankful everyday for The Common School and all it has done for my familyParent Review2y ago
