Key (Francis Scott) Elementary School

Love it, I have 3 kids there and as soon as they started they were welcomed to the family!

We are just finishing our first year at FSK and adore this school. The long time principal, Ms. Kasner, is excellent, and so involved, at the end of the day when I pick up my kids at aftercare, 2 hours after school ends, I see all the kids saying hi to her, some going up to hug her, they all know her and she them. She has created a real community feel, as has the active PTA. They raise a fair amount of money, not the most or least, but really CARE about kids here and that's where their focus is. Our teacher is excellent as are all the teachers at every grade level, and the teachers really work together at each grade level, so there is so much collaboration. My child's education is so excellent, and with great extras like dance, a computer lab and great full time instructor, a lovely librarian w/ a great librarian, holiday celebrations, world awareness, gardening with a full time enthusiastic gardening teacher, etc. We are so happy here, it was our first choice and we are so thrilled.

Being part of this school has been an amazing experience. When you have such a great community and so many parents involved you know you are going to a great school that your student will excel in! The teachers are all amazing and really take the time to learn about the students and teach them according to their learning style.

we are moving and are going to miss this school, the teachers and special ed department(you know who you are) are the most caring and helpful we have ever met, the children love the school and that is what it is about cannot say enough
