Went there for three years in the early 80s. Was tough going for me but the teachers taught me great study habits and time management skills. I feel this school is part of me.

Middle school math teacher is not good. When over 1/2 the class fails, he is not teaching the material correctly. When the highest grade in the class is a c, he i not teaching the material correctly. When he tells the girls they dont work hard and it is their fault they are failing, he is not teaching at all. He has stripped away their confidence, motivation and self worth. In return, us parents get lip service.

The school has allowed the middle school math teacher to ruin the girls enthusiasm, motivation and confidence. When over half the class fails that speaks to his teaching. Yet, he blames the girls for not trying and they allow it. If you are told you try and when you do you still fail would you still try? NO! Everyone cannot be wrong! Nothing but lip service from the school. Shameful

This school is an amazing place to work. The girls are wonderful, smart and very motivated. The administration is terrific in so many ways. Our opinions are often solicited and heard. Consensus-building under the new president is amazing. It's great to be a part of an organization that is truly on the rise!

There is an up side and a down side to this school. The teachers here are amazing, the teachers all want you to do well and are happy to help, and the classes are very extensive and thorough. The down side is the student population is a very non-diverse body. The girls are very often gossipy, mean, back stabbing, cliquey, and rude. If you are a shy, artsy person like myself it might take you awhile to find good friends, and you should only come to this school if you are okay with being alone quite often. If you are a preppy person who has gone to private schools for most or all of your life, this will be an excellent school for you.

My school is an amazing place. The teachers are always there with a helping hand if I do not understand what we are learning in class. The students are friendly and welcoming, which was amazing because I was all alone when I first started. The workload is challenging, but not impossible as long as you put in the effort to understand the information. The uniforms are not that bad, in fact they make my day a little easier. There are a lot of different extracurricular activities for one to partake in, such as Model UN, Book Club, and the various sports teams. Everyone can find a niche. Maryvale Preparatory School is an amazing school. I truly feel that this school made me r young woman I am today and helped prepare me for college in a way I feel I could not be if I had attended public school.
