Susie R. Marmon Elementary School

This school is amazing. The staff and teachers are amazing. They are willing to go above and beyond for students here. Every teacher here treats my kids with respect. They inform me with all the news that is going on around the campus. The admin here are willing to help an anyway they can for the student, parents and staff. I will always recommend this school to anyone!

This school allows kidnapped children to be enrolled without a birth certificate any documents and not being a parent or guardian to children! If you like to kidnap children you can enroll them here without a problem!

This is a horrible school. My child was bullied by his 4th grade teacher, refused to communicate with me as a parent and consistently kept my child in from recesses. (Exact same experience as a commenter below. Exact) This teacher was unprofessional and burnt out and should have retired. We had multiple meetings to try and find solutions and I asked multiple times for direct communication with me as parent so I could support my child and back the teacher up if I needed to but this teacher absolutely refused to communicate with me. She treated my 9 year old like a third year of college student. It was almost like she insisted on keeping everything secret so her bad performance as a teacher couldn't be called out. If I wasnt an involved parent and let her behavior slide, she would've broke my child down to any joy in learning and confidence in themselves. I did end up pulling my child from the school mid year when the principal refused to follow through with the (very weak) solutions created for the situation during multiple meetings. She also refused to at the least remove my child from this horrible teachers class. Also they do alot of "parent" and "family" engagement activities but they cost a ton. As a low income family this was stressful. Constant fundraisers where they dangle prizes in the children’s faces, and jean days, shirt days that cost money. Teachers ask for mandatory supplies through out the year they call "donations". I think for a Halloween event I spent 80 for my two children to play their "games" and hangout with friends was outrageous for a "school" event that they only got a sandwich bag of candy each from after. They charge for everything! Was disheartening to see my children miss out on things for this reason. Will never send any of my children here again.

My Daughter has attended Legacy Academy since she was in preschool (K4). She is now a senior giving her 14 years in total. After having 2 older daughters attend public schools, I jokingly tell people I would sooner sell a kidney than take her out of Legacy. This is a fantastic school in every way, AP classes, NHS, Sports, Fine Arts, and much more, but the most important aspect is that it's a biblical world view with a focus on discipleship in every area. The teachers and staff are excellent and truly care about the children, their safety, and their future. I can honestly say the worst part is that her time at Legacy is coming to an end and it's doubtful we will find a college with the same values, however, I believe wholeheartedly she is well prepared for life because of her time at Legacy.

This school raised my two children. They have what it takes for their students to develop the fear of the Lord and their academic rate is excellent. I will recommend this school for every parent who want the best for their children.
