The teachers are not very good, and most do the bare minimum. They have little empathy for students or parents and many seem to think their class is the only thing going on in the student's life at times with the amount of work/busy work. They have taken both of my students who are very motivated an
Posted by a parent on 2/3/2025The school gives no recognition to what should be recognized. They spend way to much money on things that they don't need at all, and they decide to take out funding for departments and divisions that really matter. They barely give any money to the sports teams and departments, just so that they ca
Posted by a community member on 2/17/2021Small class sizes and amazing tech ed classes. My child had a web technology class where she worked on computer coding and processing...these are the future jobs for our kids!
Posted by a parent on 2/4/2014Good luck getting any recognition from the sports teams, or the other students if you do not have the name. I mean that there are several large families in the district, and those kids in the family are placed at an advantage. The teachers and very closed minded. Although I always felt safe there (w

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageEden Hall is an upper elementary school (grades 4-6) that that was built 2 yrs ago. My 4th grader goes there & she loves it. Both the school and the school district strive for academic excellence as well as having a well rounded student. Art & music are not sacrificed here like they are in many schools. I'm also amazed by the extra curricular activities that are offered. Expectations are high at Eden Hall and at Pine Richland. The district is in the top 1500 districts across the country. The school building itself is just beautiful, high tech & environmentally friendly.Parent Review16y ago - Mars Area El School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe moved to Mars Area School District two years ago and could not be happier with the Special Education Teachers. They are truly a professional team that are dedicated, caring and results orientated. They focus on positive outcomes for each individual student. This is possible under the direction and leadership of the building principal.Parent Review4y ago - Richland Christian School
