Beaverdam Elementary

Lockhart is a wonderful school! The teachers are experienced, and can handle all kinds of students. Principal Zoller is very supportive of the teachers, and communicates well with parents. My child has some social/behavior issues, and has thrived there. Her teachers have taken our input seriously in the classroom, and given us great suggestions things we can do at home. She has lots of friends now, and is doing well academically and socially. Because of how the classes are structured, kids can do advanced work in the subjects they excel in, and get help in subjects they struggle with every day in their classroom, so they aren't singled out by going to special classes. They take bullying seriously, and work with the parents to resolve problems as they arise, rather than ignoring them until they get out of hand. Like most schools in this area it's diverse, which we love!

As a previous student at this school, It was alright but it’s really just about focusing just like the students, Always uneducated, playing around and teachers really don’t do stuff about it. Also the teachers are always boring not enough engagement or entertainment just really expects us to learn just by talking and talking making our education depending on us.

My son has been a student at FRES since Kindergarten, and I have never seen a more dedicated and caring staff. As a former teacher, I've worked with a lot of people who are "just there for the paycheck", but every person I've interacted with at FRES goes above and beyond - they all deserve a raise! The staff are excellent with communication, and are just genuinely kind and personable people.
