Extremely racist school for any children that aren’t white. I would never recommend any children that are African American to attend this school. When my kids attended it was only 2 other black kids making it 4 total when my kids enrolled and they were treated horribly the entire 4 months they where there until I pulled them out.

Such a better school now since the new Principal came aboard a few years ago. The previous Principal was not suitable to be around young children and her method of running a school was simply scary. But rest assure MES is back on track.

11/10 because the classes are small but the kids get to know each other and they all have a friend and the kids get more attention than other school because the teacher get to talk with each child individual and the teacher are very kind and helpful and it really feels the kids know each other by the time they go to middle school

A friendly, family-oriented school in Montgomery County within a great community. The class sizes are small and the teachers work hard to provide the best educational experience for our children. It is a great place for children to grow and learn. Numerous after school activities are available through the school and aftercare option. It is in a great location with plenty of fresh air and views of Sugarloaf Mountain from the playground.

Rigorous academic instruction, teachers and staff that are concerned, focused, and genuinely interested in the education of our children, rules and reprecussions for adhering to acceptable standards of behavior, nurturing environment, assistance and guidance for children who are experiencing difficulty in school and/or home, great extra-curricular and after-school activities, involved parent community, and just a little rural school that makes the difference in the lives of our children every single day!!
