Dale R Fair Babson Park Elementary School

Warm, friendly and concerned about the school community.

Grade wise this is suppose to be the best school around, but seems like it's only due to the fact that so many children are held back, starting in kindergarten. This was a complete waste of my child's first year in school. Write notes to teacher and no response, asked for sight words to be sent home on Monday instead of Friday, that didn't happen. Asked to send home work I could help him with at home and see what's going on, told they couldn't it's mostly hands on, but brings home all kinds of art work, and sends home papers and a big math book for summer break no problem. And why couldn't that be done during the school year. All this school is worried about is the kids parents who have money. I'm sure those kids got what ever help they needed. I couldn't even get an answer back. My kid went back words this year. He started writing his letters and numbers backwards or incorrectly, and even started spelling his name wrong. How does that happen when it wasn't a problem in Pre-K. I can't even say one thing my child learned this year.

We love Dale R Fair Babson Park Elementary. The teachers and staff are hard working and dedicated.

The parent involvement in this community is beyond excellent. The teachers are great, very nice and caring. We have a first grader this yr and a kindergartner also. Our first grader went here last year and she progressed magically. Her kindergartner teacher, Mrs. Pope, was very dedicated and professional. I look forward to many years at this chool with the children.
