MacArthur is a wonderful school and my children have had a great experience so far. My son has been at MacArthur since Kindergarten, and we decided to move as he was entering 5th grade. We wanted him to stay at MacAthur and made sure our new home was in the MacArthur district. We had a few small incidences with bullying and the school handled it immediately! The principal is wonderful, and we couldn't say enough great things about her and what she has done for the school.

I am recommending her for teacher of the year. my son doesn't talk to much and this teacher (special ED) has communication device so he can talk and learn in the classroom. she also teaching him sign language so he can communicate and learn as well in the classroom and so he will talk more. it is working my son is saying more words and he is learning how to read. the pricinpal and staff our very nice and terrfic as well. I wasn't so sure at first about the school but now since he has been here for almost a year I know this is best school for my son. I would highly recommend this school for any parent and my son got student of the month which was a pleaseant surprise. thanks mcarthur my son just loves this school and he looks forward to going to school everyday!!!
