Fruitdale Elementary School

The school does a great job at facilitating events, keeping the family engaged with activities outside of school hours. However, their attention to concerns related to inappropriate language and bullying among peers is not properly managed. Communication is great when things are going well, but when concerns arise, a cold shoulder is given to families. The sad reality is that the problem continues with little support and attention. There are other families feeling and expressing the same concerns as well. Also, there is a lady working in the front desk that is very unempathetic and it is very uncomfortable to maintain basic communication with her. I will not be enrolling my child at this school in the Fall.

My 3 and 5 year-olds both attend Brighton Academy. I am happy to report that all of the adults we have met have been lovely including Laura in the office Mrs. Pia, Mrs. D, Mrs. Martin, and Mrs Elizabeth. The other parents we've met are all healthy and kind and report their satisfaction with the school. Even interactions with the older students seem overwhelmingly positive. There are very few behavioral issues in either class and the class sizes and adult ratios are unmatched. We will happily continue to send our children to Brighton Academy because of the class sizes, the positive adult and student culture, and the relatively inexpensive costs for a private school. Five stars.

Both of my daughters attended this school. One of them started there in Kindergarten and the other at 2.mx grade. We were at the school for 7 years. We had an excellent experience. The students have a great faith filled academic opportunity. The school was and continues to be like a family to us.
