Both of my children attended Mable Barron & completed 8th grade. The students, including my children, were well prepared for high school & college. The school provided wonderful family support & activities. The principal supported the teachers, parents, & students equally. The school was safe from outsiders & amongst the students. It was a rich learning environment for my children. I also had the opportunity to be a substitute teacher there, both long term & short term. I was able to see the classroom curriculum from the inside & was impressed. The special education program was also very involved with mainstream their students into the general population, as I observed first hand. All teachers & staff were supportive of the students, from the cafeteria to the librarian. Mable Barron was a great experience for my children.

A lot of racism and stereotyping. Unfair consequences for brown and black children. This school has gone down hill in recent years. Having children in this school since 2006. It’s sad really.

My son has thrived here after being home for the duration of the pandemic-related closures. He is advanced for his grade and finds his teacher and the curriculum to be challenging, fun, and interesting.

My last year here and i've been here since kindergarten. Next stop is high school. I love how parents are volunteering alot and how friendly everyone is. I've meet and befriended teachers and other staff and parents. It was and still is and amazing school for everyone. They don't focus on only one student as more important, but they focus on one students needs just as much as the next. We also have great spirit and a very positive way of focusing on our education!! I don't want to leave!!

What I love about this school is there commitment in including art and music into the curriculum. Parents are really invovled here, whether it's classroom volunteering, or PTSA events. The teachers here are very in tune to each child's learning level. Love this school for my son.
