School Reviews
3 9/28/2020
MSE is a great public school and is superior in regard to public schools in this area. The teachers are exceptional. They provide elementary students with a solid education in spite of the great demands faced regarding overcrowded classes, teaching for test scores (administration places more focus on school test scores than students'' wellbeing), and having to use common core curriculum. Overall, if you choose or have to send your child to a public school, this is the place to go. But, if you have options to invest in private school education, it will be money well spent given the large class sizes, common core curriculum, and lack of science curriculum implemented.
