Forcey Christian School Pk-8

Galway ES always has fun parent involvement nights and opportunities for the community to come and engage which I really appreciate. The PTA is strong and holds creative meetings to build up support for both teachers and the students. The principal is very strong in her role and is always visible and she’s and knowledgeable. I love this school, my son is in 4th and next year his brother will join for K and hoping he has a great experience too. They have the enrichment program for students with high test scores and grades, and STEM fairs, different clubs to join too. My son reads to the K-2 classes (roaring readers which gets the young students excited to learn by seeing the older students visit and read to them). They also have the minority scholars program where students discuss important issues of race and equity, and discuss how to create change in the community, which gives leadership responsibility to the students involved. It’s a great school. Very impressed with what all they do throughout the school year.

I would have given this school a 5-star rating if it weren’t for the behavior of the principal. Unfortunately, her attitude and lack of respect towards parents—particularly those who don't share her background—were disappointing. While I will refrain from making any assumptions, I do feel it's important for her to remember that as a principal of an elementary school, she is in a customer service role and should treat all parents with respect. A more approachable and understanding demeanor would go a long way in improving the overall experience at this school.

The experience this school year at times was a bit overwhelming as a grandparent within home with child it was exciting going into the year but became a bit much with an inexperienced teacher as the year progressed.

Administration/front desk are so rude! They talk so bad to parents they look like they are tired and not like their job
