Great community, and the teachers administrators and counselors are unbelievably involved. They use up to date teaching methods. (I can tell, because none of them existed when I was in school.) I wish recess were a lot longer, but I guess that's a county-wide problem.

My son is autistic and just had his 1st year here. He is going into 1st grade. He did PK3 & PK4 at 2 other schools before this. In PK3 he was in a special ed class. In PK4 he was in an inclusive classroom, but it wasn't well resourced. Now that he's at Lamont, he has teachers who love him, resources from the school, parents who show up for events & support when things need to get done. He has an IEP and at his meeting there were so many staff there for support, it felt like they actually cared about our child, which isn't what we've experienced st the other schools. I'm happy my other son will be starting here this year. Pleasant surprise!

My child had an exceptional experience at Magnolia Elementary School this year. From the very first day, we felt welcomed, supported, and valued as a family.The school provides a safe, nurturing, and positive environment where students can truly thrive. The teachers are passionate, dedicated, and genuinely invested in their students’ success. They go above and beyond to support each child academically, socially, and emotionally.The professionalism throughout the school is outstanding. Communication is clear, respectful, and timely. The principal’s open door policy creates a culture of trust and collaboration, making parents feel heard and included.This year, I watched my child grow tremendously, not only academically but also socially and emotionally. He gained confidence, developed meaningful friendships, and looked forward to going to school each day. That kind of growth is a reflection of the incredible staff and leadership at Magnolia.I am deeply grateful to the teachers, staff, and administration for everything they have done. Their commitment to excellence and care for students is evident in every aspect of the school. Thank you for making this such a wonderful and memorable school year. Magnolia Elementary is truly a special place.
