Community Reviews
As a parent of a kindergartner, I love the small kindergarten class sizes (16) and the small community feel. My child is excited to go to school every day and constantly shares what he learns at school. The staff is diverse and represents the student body. We love our experience so far.
Posted by a parent on 3/4/2023My son started attending MJCS this year for third grade and I have been happy with the teacher/staff communication, engagement and community building efforts. It has an intimate, small school feel that allows for teachers to get to know your child. I love that the staff demigraphics is reflective of

Posted by a parent on 5/17/2022All three of my children attended Maureen Joy, The oldest is now a senior in college. Maureen Joy made sure they were well prepared academically to excel in both highschool and college.
Posted by a parent on 1/10/2018My son has been going to this school for two years. He is very happy at school and so are we.

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe were only able to be at RN Harris for one year and then moved out of the area.I would say this is a very child centered school. My child responded very well to this environment.The staff were very responsive to parent communication at all levels. The school worked closely with local organizations to make sure kids went home with food during school breaks. This demonstrated to me that the school staff were aware of the needs of their students outside of school hours as well.We miss you guys!Parent Review3y ago - C. C. Spaulding Elementary

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSince getting new administration our school has taken an even greater turn for the better! Our principal is a leader who pushes our students and staff to succeed and do their best. Our teachers TRULY love our students and would do anything for them. Interventions are in place for students who are struggling, AIG is in place for students who are excelling, and there are plenty of extra curricular activities for students such as after school, tutoring, violin, soccer, cheerleading, and more! The school has ramped up its community and parent involvement through tons of school events like hispanic heritage night, black history night, kickball night, smores night, reading events, sneaker balls, plays, musical performances, etc. The progress at this school is really something you want to be a part of!Teacher Review1y ago - Empowered Minds Academy
