This school is great for ages 9 and up. The teachers are great and funny but still keep my child in check. I love the middle school teacher Ms. Henyard, she always stays on my student and keeps in interested. Just have your child enrolled in Japenise. PS. I know i spelled the language wrong don't attack me.
I used to love this school when my youngeat daughter went to FLICS many years back so I decided to send my youngest here and I waa quite shocked to discover so many issues starting with the attitude of the office staff who no matter what time or day answers the doorbell with an attitude, they have had three principals in the last 4 years, they implemented a new pickup procedure whwre you have to give a code to pick your child up since they lost a child for a few hours last school year. The dismissal isn't an issue except for the parents have to stand outside no matter the weather or temperature to give a code to pick their child up. The communication is horrible because the ONLY time the principal responds is if you tag the board and I'm still trying to figure out the assistant principals job because you rarely see her unless she's forced to do some work and its always followed by an attitude. My son is a straight A student, who has NEVER had an issue with behavior but this will be his last year at this school because the disappointment is beyond repair at this point.
My daughter has been getting bullied by a little boy & the school has done nothing about it ! They refuse to change his class but offered to change my daughter class . Make that make sense when she’s not the aggressor. I’m fed up and concerned with the safety of my child . My child will not be returning to flics next school year
FLICS would be a great school for your child. I have been in FLICS for 8 years and I have learned so much. I am fluent in japanese and on the honor roll. This is a school that will prepare your child for high school or just the world in general. Your child will also get rewarded for great behavior and academics. The only downfall is there are no classes to teach us how to play instruments…I truly recommend F.L.I.C.S for your child.
Condones bullying and the children’s safety is NOT a priority! Several attempts have been made to resolve a on going act of bullying however the principals schedule doesn’t not seem to have any availability so a child is force to go to school in fear everyday.
