Not only am I a parent of a North Star Student, Im also a former employee of North Star. Enrolling my child in North Star was one of the best decisions I have ever made for my son. It hasnt always been easy for him or me but it has been worth every minute of our time. Teachers are great, they will work right alone with you to help your child absorbed the knowledge they need to know. The staff is great as well. Everyone is there to assist you in anyway they can.

GREAT HEP FROM MS ROBINSON 👏 WITH MY SON MICHAEL 💙 WITH TRANSFERRING TOO AMORHER SCHOOL

I went to this school and............its ok BUT they are too over-the-top disipline and by the end of 4 grade i made friends with half the class

We graduated from Fairmount and moved on to DTMS. When I encouraged a problem and needed assistance I reached out to good old Fairmount. Even during these times the dean, principal, admin assistant were beyond helpful. I can’t express to you how much of a family this school is. You will be lucky if your child attends. The curriculum is challenging and it can be a bit much to bite off for some children, but they will do their best to help your child succeed. Thank you a bunch Fairmount!!!

I remember this school man back in 2011-14 I had to look this school up and reminisce. Great school, great memories.

Be mindful of who you are putting in charge of your childs education. Firsthand account- The teachers are very hard working and caring individuals who give 100 % for the children they are assigned to. However, it is the administrative make-up that should be of concern. When the student population is predominately African-American and Latino and all the school administrators are Whites who dont live in the area, have never attended an inner city school and dont understand what it means to be black or Hispanic in American- you need to me mindful. The administrators state they are there to make a difference, and that they are teaching the children to advocate for themselves, and that they are giving the children they are educating a voice so that they can make changes in the world. However this is simply not true- children are not allowed to speak, staff are manipulated, treated and handled with no regard, and required work long extended hours with little to no regard to personal or health. Also, know that students are given only about 40 minutes of extracurricular time a day, no recess, students are not allowed to talk or interact during lunch, teachers have no planning or breaks everything is controlled and micro-managed by the administrative team including meeting. Parents are not allowed to visit classrooms or observe during the day. A very controlling and manipulative environment. Be mindful of who you are putting in charge of your children.The principal of the school treats the minority staff members comparably different from the Caucasian staff member, she is highly manipulative and secretly vindictive, along with the other two Caucasian female administrators. She is the type of person that will say that she loves all people, but really, she just tolerates minorities as long as they are stay in line.I highly caution any African American seeking employment to reconsider your options, you will be mistreated, passively abused and manipulated Any African American parent seeking an educational environment for your child beware...

Excellent school,teachers are very compassionate, approachable, enthusiastic.Very hard at the beginning, lots of homework but the kids get used to it.The best choice of my life.

Not enough security for the kids when they come out of school, they can easily get lost. Parents are not able to see kids interacting, hard to get in contact with teachers, parents fighting outside of school for parking all the time in front of the kids. For pick up, Imagine 200 kids outside plus 200 parents and 200 cars.

Great school! Caring, talented and professional teachers! Leading the way in closing the education gap in urban communities!

Excellent school. Can be hard at the beginning but way worthy

Amazing school. Best decision any parent could make for their children.

My son goes to this schoolVery excellent choice

Nothing better than a team where organization, discipline and respect are priority. I am extremely satisfied with my childs education at North Star. Breaking the belief that urban communities cannot succeed.

Excellent school for my kids

Both of my kids go there.
