10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMMU 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.Parent Review12y ago - Browns River Middle Usd #17
