My children had entered the school after school had started last year. They were welcomed into the school very well. They evaluated them and placed him into the appropriate levels. They also have a gifted program that starts in pre-k. I loved it. My pre-k child developed well, and was also welcomed in the class. The teachers was a huge help in adjusting to new area well. The older students teacher is so good, that I would recommend her for teacher of the year. She was amazing and new each family member and student with their flaws, and achivements. She recognized the student with rewards when they were deserved. The school also welcomed parents involvement within the school with activities, and other things. The only problem I had was with the gifted program which wasn't allowing my child to be in both math and reading programs. The other things was the teacher at time felt overwhelmed with too many kids in the same classroom. My oldest class had 1-21 child ratio.

MMU prepares students for college. The curriculum is rigorous and students are pushed to their full potential. In addition to strong academics, going to the school teaches discipline and time management. This is not a school for anyone trying to get an "easy A". Classes are challenging. Students often do quite well on college entrance exams and go on to colleges such as Dartmouth, Cornell, UVM, Ithaca, and Skidmore. Someone mentioned previously the "60 hour work week" of students here. This is absolutely correct, but as I said, this teaches time management and discipline. A lot is expected of students, but they learn a lot.

Outstanding! Thank you to the teachers and staff! You are all awesome!
