“I went to Foothills for 8 years, and my kids go there now. (4th grade & twins in preschool). I loved it, and they love it also. The teachers and staff are excellent, and welcome positive parent involvement. It is nice to know that if anything the school has gotten better with time, and my kids have a great school to call home.”

“I really liked Foothills the moment I was able to go on campus with my daughter, sign in as a visitor, and head over to the classroom unannounced. From beginning to end we were welcomed with kindness and smiles. The Kindergarten teacher that was present that day just happens to be the teacher my daughter was assigned to, and she is outstanding on paper but this education, and experience shines through the children's happiness. My daughter is always excited to go to school and when the day ends she talks about her day with Mrs. Stefan non-stop. I've worked with both my kids learning ABC', numbers, writing and spelling at an early age; however, the interaction and different learning centers in the class really gets the kids to retain what is being taught. The teachers have personal emails and will allow parents in as often as possible to help!”

“Both of my children have attended Foothills for the seventh and eight grade. We chose Foothills because of the Fine Arts Institute, but also because of the academics. My children have excelled in their academic classes and been allowed to participate in visual arts and dance. The teachers and administrators have always been helpful and accessible if I had a concern. My children have had a wonderful experience at Foothills and are glad they had the opportunity to attend.”

“This school has the best K-3 grade teachers. They are patient, caring and very dedicated to their profession. I have had 2 children through this school and now have moved to another peoria district, but had nothing but positive experience with both staff and administration. This school also has excelled in the arts program and should be commended for trying to enhance the curriculm.”

“The principal, teachers and office staff do not communicate well. I have received several calls asking why my son was not in school when he was suspended from school. I received a call from the office on another occasion informing me that my daughter was not in school. The office staff and the teacher had failed to follow procedure when a child is tardy. Rather that have her wait for a pass, the office told her to go to class and the teacher did not call to ask why she did not have a pass. Her presence was not reported to the attendance clerk. They caused unnecessary panic by not following their own rules.”
