The only thing that I am concerned about as a parent is that the cost of some things in the school are rediculous. I know that this is a small town and some funding that bigger schools have may not be available to us. However, I have never had to spend the kind of money for my kids to attend a school

Furthermore, I feel as though we are living in 'Mayberry' as far as being behind the times (technologically speaking), but some people seem to think that the costs for some events/sports need to be like those of a huge school. Get it together and decide which it is!! Read less

Don't listen to the bad reviews. MMS is a great school, with great faculty and staff. We DO have electricity, and we use technology regularly in class. I love MMS and I'm gonna miss it next year when I leave for 8th grade.

I am a parent of a fourth grade student at MMS. I had read reviews and was concerned about technology. I see something completely different. The computer lab is up-to-date and used frequently. I believe most of the teachers are using projection systems in their classrooms. My child's teacher

MMS is the best in Lawrence County. Check out those test scores! They are definitely doing some great things at this school. The academics are excellent. Choir is thriving but band is sinking lower and lower. Some sports are available for 7th graders. I see a lot of parents eating in the lunchroom,

The quality of the academic programs at MMS is top notch. Music and art are not available to all students, however.

I have had three children to attend MMS. I have been very pleased with the overall academic achievement of the school.

No one likes to think that they are perceived as being slack in his or her job, or, heaven forbid, that they hate children. Personally, I love 'my' children and enjoy teaching them.

Our administration is very supportive of its teachers, but not of those who are slack in doing their jobs. Excellence and professionalism is expected. I am sorry people are unhappy. Please don't judge the entire school based on the opinions of a few. We need to be part of a team to achieve excellence. Excellence takes growth and hard work. We need your support at school and home. SH Read less

I have had three children at MMS.
