Richard L Rice School

My children went through both, elementary (Kresson) and Voorhees Middle School ( VMS). To my opinion Kresson is a mixed bag. However, it went down in early writing and math skills as classes seems to me became larger and the schools do not have enough teachers do development critical thinking and learning skills. The school district is eager to promote an Early Sex education among elementary school age children under a Health Education curriculum, and has staff for those type of lessons. Please be aware that parents can opt out the Sex Ed part if desired. The opt out forms can be requested through your district school administration and must be submitted by September 22nd, 2025. I wish we would have a voucher option to be able to afford to take our 6-year-old son to a private or a Catholic school to avoid an exposure to undesired information pushed by public schools in New Jersey

I highly recommend this school!! Your child will come away with such a well-rounded foundation just as mine did. I only wish this school had an elementary program so I could keep my kiddo here longer!

MCA is a wonderful, nurturing school that truly cares about each child’s growth and development. The supportive environment, dedicated teachers, and focus on both academics and character-building make it a fantastic place for children to learn and thrive. We’re so grateful to be part of such a warm and encouraging community.
