Nice...do you have parents who care about how you talk? Or do you talk like that to them too? Nice job...and by the way, learn how to spell before you go to high school.

Like any other school, Folsom has its ups and downs too. No matter where you are, what school it is, someone is going to have something bad to say about the school or the teachers. I had my opinion about the schools I went to as a child. I have 2 children attending Folsom, and I am happy with the school. I moved out here so my kids could go to this school, and not be in a school where there were a lot of snotty little brats who judged students based on what part of the township they came from. In folsom there are fewer students, and they are from so many areas, you really can't judge. These kids at Folsom should be happy that they at least know most of there class mates, where I went to middle school there were over 700 students in the 8th grade class, There were a lot of student in my graduating class that I never even knew. So, to those who wish to badmouth thier school, sit back and think about how much worse it could be, be thankful you know your classmates, and have good memories with your friends, don't dwell on the bad things that happen because it will only make you a miserable person in the end. (and thats what people will remember you as)

Ok all principles are not the same. They are people and all different. Her term with the board of education is for 5 years. Every time there is a new principle at Folsom they change things from rules to curriculm, that is just the way it is at any school where there is a change in administration, each new person has something to bring to the table. If you don't like the BOE decision next time take it up with them, they approved for her to be there. I graduated from there in 1987. It was a small school and the teachers knew you and your family. At that time somehow someway all the staff was related. With the option of school choice now there are many different types of kids, good and bad. If you prefer your kid to go to Winslow or Hammonton then send them there and don't complain about Folsom. Yes, Rischel has made a lot of changes good and bad. If you have a problem go and talk to her she does do her best to help. I think the best thing she did was getting 6-8th grade more like a middle school with lockers, timed classes, so they can be ready for high school. Something I didn't have. I have chosen to send my children on school choice because of the small class sizes that gave my children more one on one time with the teacher, which is more important than anything. That means my children are getting more one on one time which means they learn more.

Hahaaa right now i'm laughing my ass off, i'm glad i made it out just in time with Gargulio (erm.. however itz spelled.) lighten up, this is only a beginning chapter in life. If you can't Handle a Pissy Superintendent, How will you be able to handle a boss who's always on your ass later on down the road. There is more to life than Elementary school, when you finally open up your eyes to see the bigger picture and realize how small this is, then you should turn around and try to knit pick at the tiny flaws and imperfections and see where it takes you.

FOLSOM IS AWESOME. CHILDREN CANNOT GROW ALWAYS GETTING THEIR WAY. WHEN THEY GROW UP AND GET A JOB ARE THEY GOING TO QUIT EVERYTIME THEY HAVE A CRAPPY BOSS. WHEN I WENT TO SCHOOL THE TEACHERS WERE ALWAYS RIGHT AND I WAS TAUGHT TO HAVE RESPECT, NO MATTER WHAT. I GUESS THATS WHY THE FOLSOM STAFF LOVE MY CHILDREN. I SPENT $10,000.00 ON TUITION FOR MY 3 KIDS IN KINDERGARTEN. BEST MONEY I EVER SPENT. I AM FROM WINSLOW AND I TAKE OFFENSE TO THE PERSON THAT THINKS ALL OF THE WINSLOW KIDS ARE BRATS. FOLSOM WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO STAY OPEN IF THEY DIDN'T HAVE SCHOOL CHOICE. I ATTENDED WINSLOW SCHOOLS AND EVEN EDGEWOOD FOR TWO YEARS. I ALSO ATTENDED ST. JOE FOR HIGHSCHOOL. FOLSOM WAS MY FIRST CHOICE FOR MY CHILDREN. PARENTS NEED TO BE HOME AND SEE THE AMOUNT OF DISRESPECT THEY HAVE RAISED THEIR CHILDREN WITH. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK MRS. RISCHEL. I AND MOST OF THE PARENTS APPLAUD YOUR TOUGH NO BULL ATTITUDE. I FEEL VERY SAFE WITH MY CHILDREN IN YOUR SCHOOL.

I heard they have a new Administrator of some kind. I heard that she's one of South Jersey's best teachers and will making great changes to the school.

[Folsom taxpayer]

I have a sixth and first grade student in Folsom school. I am a resident. I have seen the school double in enrollment for better or for worse. Many people have the misimpression that choice children pay a tuitioun to attend this school. In fact, it is a money transfer done through the town districts. For example, if you live in Sicklerville, Sicklerville should pay Folsom your school taxes to have your children attend. Is there any documentation that proves Folsom has been paid? So, before you or your kids start complaining, maybe someone should check to see if your taxes have been transferred.
