Mariposa Elementary School Reviews

 
I am a mother of four, and this is the best Elementary School that any of my kids have been to. I am very impressed with the attentiveness giving to each child by all the Teachers and Staff. Dr. Cunningham knows all the children and their parents by name. My children run to class when I drop them off in the morning because they are so excited. The Teachers always have time to answer questions. The office Staff really goes out of their way to help in anyway they can. I have never known a School to have so many fun activities for the children. Mariposa really is a fun place and I look forward to any opportunity I have to stay involved. I just cannot say enough about Mariposa Elementary.

Mariposa is a joyful place to learn and volunteer. The principal is an outstanding 'people person' and a wonderful academic leader, the teachers love and support kids, and the office staff is always friendly and top notch! We have great test scores, wonderful activities and super communication. We feel so lucky to be here!

My son started kindergarten at Mariposa this year, and I'm very impressed with their program. The principal is very involved in the school. My son's teacher really cares about him succeeding not only in academics but in life. They encourage parent involvement, and it's fun to be a part of my son's class weekly.

Mariposa is an excellent school. The principal is for the kids 100%. She is dedicated to make Mariposa a fun, safe leaning environment. Parent involvement goes beyond any expectation.

Dissappointed. I am really dissappointed in this school and the new principal. All they seem to care about is keeping themselves as a distinguished school -- even at the expense of the enjoyment of the kids. You would be doing yourself a favor to stay clear of this school.

good school with good teachers

This school could be great. Unfortunately, they have cut so many corners that the teachers have to ask the parents for tissues so the kids can blow their noses. Some classes are cotaught by a pair of part-time teachers. While either of the teachers alone might be fine, the combination doesn't seem to work well at all for some students. There is an unfortunate tendency for to assume that a mild learning disabillity is really an intentional act of defiance on the child's part, and that they can fix the problem through discipline, without input from the parents -- actually, the teachers ignored our advice and insisted we must follow theirs. They told us we should home school our child if we disagreed with them. I definitely would not recommend this school for any student who is not already highly compliant and organized.

My daughter just started kindergarten in the fall. Her teacher is Mrs. Eldred, and she is wonderful. She is patient and kind, but can be firm when she needs to be. My daughter just loves her!
