Foose School

I have to share my experience because I took my children out of STS due to the previous principal. We tried public school, it was terrible. We are now back with the new principal, and it is SOOO much better! The education even when you don't have an experienced teacher is still better than what is being taught in public schools. My specific experience was with Mechanicsburg Area School District. The curriculum at STS is rigorous and demanding of the kids. It teaches them hard work, time management, and discipline. The community at the school is also amazing. Being able to connect with other families and having that relationship year after year really builds a comfort of knowing your kids are in a great place. The administration right now is also doing a great job. It is sad that one bad principal ruined things and a lot of good teachers and students left the community, but it has turned a corner for the good and I hope it keeps going!!! One thing to note, unfortunately they are not a great place for kids with special needs or learning disabilities. They are better served through CAIU, which only visits the school once a week or so.

Poor. In the process of trying to work through some issues with our child we were told our child could not come back. Mind you it was here that our child was choked out by another student. If your child is perfect and presents no issues this school will be fine. If your child presents any struggles you will be told the public school would be a better place and they are not equipped to help. I simply do not recommend this school.
