My daughter had attended MacGregor since she was in kinder. Since those years I noticed many changes to the school like staff changes and the removal of a pto to allow parents to raise money and support the school and the students. I personally never had any issues with the teachers through the year
Posted by a parent on 8/4/2021I would give MacGregor a strong B+. My daughter went here for Kindergarten, and is returning for first grade. I wasn’t really sure about this school at first because of the lack of high diversity numbers but I have been quite pleased with MacGregor. I think this school is very under rated. I hold a
Posted by a parent on 9/7/2020In all honesty, I give this school 3.5 stars for very personal reasons. I am a parent that grew up in the neighborhood and have history here and want to support a local school. This school at one point in time was pretty good for public school. But good public schools are usually supported heavily b
Posted by a parent on 1/25/2019The school definitely gears its curriculum to teaching students how to become more effective at taking standardized tests. Unfortunately, this rarely translates to conceptual knowledge and ones ability to apply those concepts outside of very specific parameters. Students at this campus routinely fun
Posted by a teacher on 8/14/2018The principal Mrs. Garrett is unapproachable and my child hasn't had a teacher since January. I found out from my child and another parent. Every other day there is a different substitute in the classroom. The principal hasn't said a word about it. They're not receiving any kind of work or nothing.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe are the parents of an AOS Lower School student, who has attended for several years. Before matriculating, we were a new family to the school, so we only had friends' world of mouth to guide our school decision. The school has exceeded our already high expectations in every imaginable way. Our son loves school—he is thriving academically and socially.Parent Review7mo ago - Presbyterian School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe school has potential to be excellent,but as of now they are average. Some of the faculty and administration in the lower school need to be more educated and update their knowledge. Curriculum and expectations are outdated for young children. Things should not be the same as they were in 2001 or 1980. There are some kind and loving teachers. We very much enjoy the other families.Parent Review3y ago - Virgie Lou Childrens Center
