Open Quote I had two children graduate from the school. They both got an excellent education! Close Quote

Open Quote A major problem at this school is the fact that privacy standards do not exist. In the public school system, you are protected by FERPA. In many other private schools the privacy policies were written right into the rules and regulations that govern their employees. At Forcey, your business will be in the street. Teachers let their best friends work in classrooms as helpers. These helpers review grades and discuss student issues. Later, they discuss your personal business with friends and whoever else feels like chatting. This should be completely unacceptable. I would go so far to say that teacher helpers should no longer be allowed in classrooms unless they were picked and screened by the principal. This would remove these cliquish busy bodies, who are meddlesome gossipers (1 Tim. 5:13, 1 Thess 4:11, Mark 7:6, Prov. 20:3, 1 Pet. 4:15) from having access to peoples personal information (grades, martial information, tuition assistance, etc.). This really needs to change...ASAP! Close Quote

Open Quote This school has delivered somewhat of a mixed bag results for the several years that we have been there. My child will not return after this school year due to the new principal who does not do what is in the best interest of students but only protects incompetent teachers. Look at the overall test scores, Standard Achievement Test Scores (SAT), the principal has these scores. The scores were not that great and make sure when you are given an interpretation of the scores that it is the same interpretation the makers of SAT would give. You can look at the Standard Achievement Test website to get an accurate explanation of the test scores meaning. Close Quote

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
