(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I have fond memories of Fort Lewis Elementary! I attended in 1958 when i was seven years old. This school had wooden floors and at lunch time we went down stairs to eat. You could smell the wonderful aroma of food from our class room.
I remember my first grade teacher was Mrs. Wells and i thought she was so pretty, and she also had long finger nails and she liked to wear red polish. (LOL)
Well, i'm 59 years old now and a grandmother of three. I love to tell them about this school and how much i loved it!
Sincerely,

- This school is very small and organized. However, some teacher's are not very creative in teaching students who learn in different ways then traditionally classroom instruction. The staff is very nice, but follow-through is poor. Also, some teacher's have difficulty meeting children at their current level of comphrension and instead suggest that retention is the solution even when children may be learning disabled. Overall, it is a nice school, but may not be the best fit for children who "think outside the box"!
