Forder feels like it's own little family. Most of the teachers have been there for years so you truly get to know everyone and they are always willing to help. Needs some building improvement for student safety though.

We moved to the district last year and our kids have gotten the support they need. The teachers are communicative and responsive. Our kids seem to genuinely enjoy going to school, which is far more than I can say for my grade school!
