The teachers have too may kids in their classrooms. They aren't able to handle students who aren't behaving and falling in line 100% of the time. Which causes a lot of classroom disruption. The principal's only focus is on attendance. ESS support staff doesn't provide adequate support. The PTA is th
Posted by a parent on 7/21/2025We have been nothing but pleased by Murray Manor. It is our neighborhood school and my son has been attending since Kindergarten (now in 3rd). While no school is perfect, this is a really great neighborhood school. Here are a few things that I have found special about this school. 1. Parents care de
Posted by a parent on 9/24/2019My son has been going to Murray Manor for a few years now. We considered private school, but at the end of the day, public was in the best interest of our family. It was the best decision we could have made! The teachers are wonderful - they know all of the students, their personality, and their ski
Posted by a parent on 9/12/2019Not great, my 1st grader enjoyed his experience due to his teacher. My daughter did not have the most positive year. As parents, we were amazed at the lack of communication.
Posted by a parent on 8/6/2018We moved our son to Murray Manor last year and have not regretted one day!! He has Asperger's Syndrome and was bullyed at his previous school. When we found Murray Manor it was literally a breath of fresh air. He now has "Autism Advocates" that help him socialize better on the playground, his teache

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSt. Martin Of Tours Academy is an amazing school. I always feel welcomed by the staff members and teachers. They use Standard-Reference grading system for the kids, which boosts students' confidence and also allows individuals to develop in their own space. The classroom is small and the teacher can pay close attention to each student. Choosing St. Martin Of Tours Academy is the right choice for my son's education journey.Parent Review1y ago - Mt.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI’m very conflicted. While we LOVE some teachers with a passion (Hanlon, kinder, and Barrett,3rd) some teachers aren’t good especially middle school. My kid started to fall behind and they rarely made contact about it. The lady at the front desk is SO rude if she doesn’t like your kid and they pick favorites and pick on certain kids. Mine have gotten in trouble for things other kids don’t because they have both been singled out thanks to my situation and my older kid having struggles when we first started. If it were up to me they wouldn’t be there but it’s a joint decision and it’s not all my choice. Public school would have been better socially too because the bullying is NOT ADRESSED even after multiple incidents.Parent Review2mo ago - Acton Academy San Diego East
