Marshall Elementary School

I have four children and they have all attended Carnegie. I’ve seen many teachers come and go over the years at this school but some core ones have remained and that seems to set a higher bar for new hires compared to most schools. This school attracts good teachers that care about kids. The culture is one of learning and discipline problems and any bullying is addressed swiftly. It really is a peaceful atmosphere for an elementary school and kids who behave are the norm. Kindergarten and first grade teams are phenomenal.

Horrible school as far as leadership. The teachers were great, but were limited by the principal. She was rarely at the school and when she was, she was in her luxury office with the door shut. Avoids any type of communication. Extremely pretentious. Suspends students without even letting parents know. I had to threaten a lawsuit to get my child’s record cleared. Do not recommend.

This school is a danger to children’s safety and mental health and should be shut down!

We really love this school. As an international family, we felt very welcomed here. The teachers are kind and supportive, and our daughter is happy and confident. She was in another school before with a higher rating, but we like McClure much more — they respect her personality and help her grow without pressure.

The upper elementary school front office lady is the primary reason I’m looking at taking my tax dollars elsewhere. She is as insufferable as the policy she thinks is so important. I walked my kindergarten girl to class just fine without wasting time on a tag because clearly if you have a little girl with you and are dressed in work clothes you aren’t looking to meander around the halls.
