Great so far, glad our student is able to attend this school!

Most teachers only use homework to review skills and to further determine if the student has mastered the desired standard.

MMS is quick to respond to reports of bullying. After investigating reports, the administrative team responds appropriately to all incidents of bullying.

Attending MMS was a great experience for my daughter. As she grows older, I am sure she will look back on MMS with many fond memories.

My daughter had an excellent experience at this school. They have honors courses and a great variety of extra-curricular activities to include sports and fine arts offerings. It is a good size--not too big and not too small. Teachers are caring and supportive and communicate openly and frequently with parents. Highly recommend!

As a single mom, I have always had a great experience at MMS because the teachers and staff are caring for my children. The teachers have my children's best interest at heart and go above and beyond to give the best education possible. I pay higher rent to keep them at MMS. It's worth it!

Never seen a worse bullying situation in a school's that is so highly encouraged by the teachers, principals and other staff members. Military families beware. Military kids are treated as outsiders. The principals will pretend to listen to your concerns but nothing gets done or changed. For the families from the area originally I'm sure it's a better situation. If you send your child be sure to invest in therapy.

The IEP teachers are poorly qualified.We had a great one last year in 5th grade.My child loved school last year and hates it this year because they made her classes so difficult and offered very little help.

This school is great. My three kids went here and they loved the teachers. I felt that the teachers and staff were really focused on helping the kids achieve success.
