In response to the Feb 3, 2009 post: I was not there to ask for anything, I just went to post money into my children's lunch account and since it was the summer and they didn't have a room number yet I wanted to pay in person. There is only one rude office worker in the office, the others are great.

I am a parent of a child that attends MMES. I have been in the office on several occations. The office staff workers are wonderful.

No special treatment for anyone. It is the ones who think they are above everyone else who get upset when rules are enforced upon them. My question to the most recent post is'What didn't they allow you do do'? They have told me 'no' several times. Oh well that's life. Rules/ Procedures...there everywhere we go!! Read less

My son is in Kindergarten and really loves it. This is the best school on Oahu that we could find that doesn't cost 15,000 to go to. Parent involvement it appreciated.

Parents do not seem to volunteer as much here because most parents have to work because of the high cost of living. I would recommend this school to anyone. My son has learned so much. They have to get up in front of the class and speak about their journal or sharing time. This really helps the shy kids to come out of their shell. Read less
