"To clarify, a Title I school is not a school where there are a large number of second language students. It is a school where a large percentage of students are on free or reduced lunch and the school receives additional Federal aid. My two children go to school here and I couldn't be happier with the education they are receiving. Both of my kids are very bright and are challenged academically everyday. They feel loved by their teachers and the staff at the school. It is a GREAT neighborhood school. The school has a bully box in the office for any child that feels threatened by another. I have never seen the principal ignore a situation that she was aware of."

"Many of hte teachers at Guin Foss are qualified, caring and nuturing. It's too bad that the focus has twisted from learning to punishment. If a child doesn't get enough A/R points he is prohibited from participating in recess and other activities. Reading shouldn't be a tortuous experience but a life long love developed in the early years. It's too bad that the principal is more focused on A/R points and not reading for information and enjoyment."

"I love this school!I have two children, my son has special needs. He went to this school k-5 and I couldn't have asked for a better school. The administration and staff at this school is and was exceptional. My second child is now in fourth grade and I am just as pleased with her opportunities on the other end of the spectrum. This school has excellent programs to meet the needs of children, no matter high, low and anywhere in between. The pto is very active and caring about enriching our childrens and supporting the school. This is truly a school that puts kids first ( the schools moto). But my favorite part of the school is this is truly a neighborhood school. The children are good to one another. I feel pride in this school and am so glad my children had this jewel of a school to attend."
