The culture at Mark Murray is one that every parent should want for their child. Respect, responsibility, care and cooperation are taught explicitly and expected from each student. Students work well by themselves and others and learn how to be brave by being assertive yet open minded when it comes

Posted by a parent on 9/13/2017No issues. I'm involved with my child and I make sure I do my part at home and in the classroom.
Posted by a parent on 5/24/2016High teacher turnover, ineffective teachers in lower elementary Mark Murray, silent lunches, lack of respect for student creativity, students who fail to assimilate are ostracized.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageStrongly dislike. This place does not care for students comfort, or thought. Especially the principal, she’s very inconsiderate and rude. My daughter strongly hates this school. Don’t understand how this is the number one school. My daughter feels uncomfortable and confused on learning tactics and teachers thoughtless on. Unfair as well, my daughter is a great student but gets punished. 1/10.. Do not send unless you want your children to be confused and uncomfortable..Parent Review1y ago - Spain Elementary-Middle School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageFrederick Douglass is an amazing school. All of the teachers have advanced degrees three are doctors and one of them also instructs at the University of MIchigan Ann Arbor Campus. The school offers many opportunities for the students i.e. internships, college courses, sports (State Champions), and broadening excursions. Frederick Douglass is a best kept secret.ParentParent Review4y ago - Edmonson Montessori
