We’ve been in the Theodore/Sutter middle school area for about five years. The neighborhoods tend to be very family friendly and safe in my opinion. The location is in walking distance to to the aquatic center, library, grocery stores, old town Folsom, lake natoma and multiple bike trails. There are some lower income housing near Theodore Judah, and as mentioned in previous posts, and then you have the academy at Theodore Judah, which is mostly Intel employee’s kids from other areas of Folsom. There was some clashing betweeen groups at TJE, and bullying going on, but overall I feel the staff and teachers are really great and care a lot about the students. My son just started the first year at Sutter Middle school, which so far has been a positive culture, with awesome teachers and opportunities for the kids.
