Satchel Ford Elementary School

My kids have been attending Satchel Ford school for the past 3 years. I was a little skeptical about sending my kids to a school in the downtown area. My experience has been absolutely awesome! This has school is great and only getting better. Teachers, staff and principal have been phenomenal!

My daughter is in Kindergarten and has almost completed a full semester at this time. She loves the school. The principal really cares for his students. He is out directing traffic or assisting with drop-off/pick-up every day.Satchel Ford has a reputation as one of the best schools in Richland District One. And, by being in the Satchel Ford school district, you are eligible to enroll your child or children in the free, lottery Montessori school - Brockman Elementary. But, even if you don't get into Brockman, you are still attending a great school at Satchel Ford.

The teachers and staff here are all incredibly helpful and supportive. My children have had a great experience with every teacher, including those in the arts and physical education. Love our school for sure! - A parent

Bear in mind that I attended Satchel Ford from 1970-1976 so my experience may have been very different than that of more recent attendees.
