My children began their journey at FMS as Kindergarteners…read more They are currently in middle and high school, respectively. Located on a beautiful vast campus, FMS offers a unique and nurturing environment that encourages students to grow and thrive. With a focus on Quaker values, the school emphasizes the importance of respect, empathy, and social responsibility, providing students with a strong moral foundation that will serve them well throughout their lives. Another key aspect of the school is its commitment to diversity and inclusivity. The school celebrates the diversity of its students, faculty, and staff, and provides a safe and welcoming environment for all. As a mother of bi-racial children, it is of the utmost importance that our children feel safe, and well-respected. Especially at a place where they spend the majority of their time. Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion are reflected in the school's curriculum, which is designed to promote cross-cultural understanding, empathy, and respect for differences. In addition to its academic programs, FMS also offers a range of community service opportunities that encourage students to give back to their community and develop a sense of social responsibility. From volunteering at local charities to participating in environmental conservation projects, students are given the chance to make a positive impact on the world around them. If you're looking for a school that will help your child grow into a confident, compassionate, and socially responsible individual, then Friends Meeting School is most definitely worth considering.

Where to begin.... 1st there is favoritism. The kids from wealthy families get special treatment…read moreand their bad behavior gets overlooked. Kids call teachers by first name which is weird and doesn't show respect. My daughter had a teacher who made sexual comments to her and when it was addressed with The head of school no disciplinary action was taken. In fact the teacher was presented with an award in front of my child at graduation. Terrible!!! The same teacher also gave another student the finger and that was also reported. No disciplinary action was taken. What are we teaching children when this behavior is allowed especially in a Quaker school. I would never recommend this school. Safety should be the number 1 priority and clearly the school is more concerned about their reputation than the students. On a positive note there are some teachers there that are very good.

This school is okay it's not as bad as other middle schools. Some teachers can teach and some cant…read morethat's what really sucks about this school because then u got a lot of stress becuz they don't help u much but I guess they do try there best and yeah

So far, this school has been okay. I've seen a lot of reviews talking about how the food sucks,…read morewhich it does, but that's to be expected with average school lunch. It is not like they're gonna serve you the best food known to man. It's a school. Nonetheless, I think over the summer they took control of the mouse problem, or I just don't spend enough time down in the sixth grade area. It can be improved, but it is good enough to be a school.

If you are like me, you prioritize your time from your own learning to use the bathroom. Now, I…read morewill admit I do find myself having to take a quick trip to the bathrooms quite often, but I try to condense that time in to my breaks like the blessed lunch period. I look forward to this sweet 25 or so minutes to myself to unwind, but also to use the restroom to my liking. Brace yourself, for what I am about to say will send shivers down the common man's spine. I don't expect much from school bathrooms, nay--I expect the bare minimum. the bare minimum I speak of is no. I MEAN NO. male ejaculate on the toilet seat...not in my 17 years of living would i ever think I would need to state this, this unruliness. this recalcitrancy. This chicanery. That's the word, Chicanery. This trick that I am supposed to believe that my school bathrooms will be of highest standard, and accommodate to the students, the future of the world, the generation that can save us. But we are hindered. Deprived from the taste of a favorable outcome. Or i dare say my out-CUM, as Oakdale High School would want you to believe. I leave you to resonate with this. Contemplate this question, do you want cum crested upon on your porcelain throne, your sanctuary. I say nay!

All the HOA do is complain that my trailer is in view of the public. Our vehicles block the trailer for a good majority of the day. My trailer is not being viewed by the public.
