[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you should go around and look for yourself as well. What someone else may think ii "great" may be a nightmare to you. I was HORRIFIED at how overcrowded these schools are! We are actually moving out of FFC because of the overcrowding problem. They have large classrooms. Our child was about to start highschool and they have a 25-30 student per classroom. That is way too high for me! I think 'best" should be in what you are looking for with your child and their education. I haven't been too impressed since moving here. I don't see the extra money we pay to live here is worth it. This is just my two cents, so take it for what it is worth. I think the only way to know for sure is to personally visit some schools, look at the classrooms, ask them any specific questions that you have, etc. Good luck! [/quote] Gee, even 25 years ago, the class sizes were 25-30 where I went to high school on the West Coast. Where did you go to school? [/quote] I'm sorry.. I meant the elementary school. We lived out of state. The average classroom size there was 14 with 2 teachers. {Public school}. I was just really shocked here. I would think there would be more schools and/or more classrooms/teachers in such a busy place. I was very impressed with the school and staff that we met here though. [/quote]
