I have two children attending Mariposa and they are both thriving. They transitioned beautifully from Montessori where they attended Pre-K and K. There are plenty of opportunities for parents to get involved. Mr. Torres is a great principal and genuinely cares for the children.
Posted by a parent on 2/20/2023Some absolutely terrific teachers mixed with a handful of underachieving educators--mostly well seasoned teachers who haven't evolved with the times. The bad apples are stuck on very traditional teaching methods, aren't very responsive, and are seemingly uncomfortable with technology. The good news
Posted by a parent on 11/25/2020so far last year Mariposa was beyond dissapointing. This year the teacher seems promising and I am looking to see a change with Mariposa. Principle has already been interactive with parents and students during drop off and pick ups which is a total 360 from last year. So this year is looking promisi
Posted by a parent on 8/30/2018I have had two children go through Mariposa...one with the former principal, Dr. C., and one with the newer principal. The experiences were like night and day. Dr. C. was engaging and the kids loved her. She knew all their names, all their habits, and all their strengths and weaknesses. She collabor
Posted by a community member on 9/14/2017Since Dr. C left, everything is spiraling down fast. The new principal lacks the authority and control that Dr. C has and also the passion for education. We have been at this school for a few years, and am blessed to have good kids. Both get character awards annually, are A students etc. and I help

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy child just completed first year at SAM and we both love this school. We had an overwhelming amount of communication at first but got used to it. School emails newsletters twice a week and each class have class moms that help bridge gaps between parents and teacher. Our class mom started a WhatsApp group just for class parents to communicate with each other, which I found so helpful. I did have an incident with the teacher and principal when we first started school and Ms. Tellez (principal) listened to my concern and suggested I speak with teacher first to try to resolve and if it couldn't be resolved to then involve her. I was able to email the teacher and did have a face-to-face meeting with her to address my concerns and we were able to work through it. The teacher emailed weekly and she and her TA, both kept us in the loop by taking pictures throughout the school year. Our class is remarkably close, and all the parents feel like we are family. In fact, if I ever need anything I know I can call another parent and ask for help. We have had a wonderful experience at SAM.Parent Review1y ago
