I have enjoyed being a part of the PTA for all three years that my child attended Folks. Everyone is so inviting and willing to do anything to help the school. Mr. Perez, our principal is the warmest and inviting principal that we have had. He always has a smile and tries to greet every student and parent to make them feel welcome.

There is a lot of bullying that goes unchecked and nobody seems to care about it. Nursing staff make you feel like you are an inconvenience the entire time you’re there. I really like my teachers though. Shout out to Mrs.Bradly (history), Mr.Wong (math), and Ms.Ford (theatre) they make learning fun...
