On a positive note, this school is very good with education, and special need services. HOWEVER THEY LACK IN PROTOCOL AND IN SAFETY - Another child threatened my child stating they would bring a gun to school today to shoot and kill my child. The school took this very lightly , left me a voicemail s
Posted by a parent on 5/13/2025The teachers at MacArthur are fantastic. They have stuck in there through some difficult administration. My 3 kids have all gotten a great education in spite of it all because of great teachers and other staff. We are so excited for the new principal. He seems to fit in well with the great quality o
Posted by a parent on 9/11/2014BIG CHANGES underway at MacArthur, The NEW principal seems to be very much about his staff & students(180 deg. turn around). The uneasiness and tension that was evident over the last couple years from the staff will without doubt rebound because those who were able be make it the last three years as

Posted by a parent on 8/19/2013The best part about MacArthur is the active neighborhood support. I have also found the faculty to be very friendly.

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageLet the new principle know how I felt about a teacher making both of my kids cry and was given the third degree about it being my "kids reality". As far as I am concerned, no one but me (the parent) gets to dismiss "my kids reality". If I have 2 kids who have problems with the same teacher and are coming home daily crying, it's a YOU problem. Having a kid with behavioral issues is hard, but you are supposed to be professionals and HELPING my kids and not making them feel helpless.Parent Review1y ago - Hale Elementary School

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school ruined me the teachers were okay but the students were the problem. and the staff did NOTHING about it one kid pretended to be hitler and drew a mustache on himself and did the NAZI salute. teacher didn't even notice?? and when I reported it the counselor gave him a "talk". when the student came back he laughed it off and did it AGAIN little to ZERO consequences for literally impersonating hitler. A student i know was bullied by their peers for being transgender kids would ask them "do you need to wear a pad???" loud and rudely to them and laughed it off NO consequences!! the only good thing about this school is that the counselor's kind of make you feel better. this school made depression easy to develop and has destroyed many kids mental health. if tou're kid has behavioral issues dont send them too easy to get away with literal nazi,racism and transphobia in this school.Other Review8mo ago - Lehi Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMontessori International School has been an amazing learning facility for my two children. They have both excelled in the environment, learning to be independent and contributing members of each little community. The teachers, staff and support personnel are amazing and care deeply about providing a nurturing environment for students to flourish. Every day I am impressed by the quality of the education provided and am so happy to have my daughters enrolled at MIS. Thank you for being amazing!!Parent Review1y ago - Montessori Learning Center
