I love Mattie Wells for my younger two children! Mrs. Hudson is the principal and she is wonderful! She works hard to make sure that our children learn and meet academic standards. My children has has some great teachers. Ive only had a problem with two. One didn't push my daughter to her full potential and Mrs. Rozar was rude and thought that she knew everything! Thank God that she retired this past school term! Jones County school district is one of the best for educating your children! I trust the educators at this school and I can't wait for this school year to begin. I am excited for my children this year!

Horrible and each year gets worse. The new principal Mrs Hudson is not willing to work with parents on anything and speaks to you in a very condescending way!

All I can speak on is Pre-k, but my son has the BEST teachers in Pre-k. Mrs. Goble and Mrs. Evans go above and beyond for their class and students. My son has matured and learned so much this year but also on a deeper level. I love that he is being taught to "think" and to go beyond the surface. Great school, great PTO, and great environment. We look forward to Kindergarten next year.

This school was awful! They beat me with a paddle in 98 & 99 my fourth and fifth grade years. Ms. Womble and ms. Stubs and this creepy old guy principal. I would recommend moving or switching schools, this no place for a free minded child.

I am not happy so far with Wells Primary. My son is in pre k and I constantly got phone calls reguarding my son, as well as the other parents i have spoken to. The teacher i believe needs to teach 10 year olds instead of 4 year olds.. She excepts too much from a 4 year old who has NEVER been in a class room setting. Not happy at all..
