I would rate Mariposa a 10! It has a wonderful PTO that not only puts on amazing activities throughout the year, but comes up with great fundraising ideas. The field trips are appropriate and fun! The teachers really care about their school and every child that walks in their classroom. I can't wait for the following school years!

Overall experience is quite good. Highly recommended.

My son has been attending this school since kindergarten. He has a disability and was initially in the special ed program. He has consistently excelled in his academics while here. I did not like his kindergarten teacher but every teacher since has been nothing short of outstanding. My son fits right in with his classmates and although I always harbor fears that he may be picked on because of his disability he says he never has that problem. He is currently on the honor roll and the teaching staff and most of the administration has been great. I am not a fan of Mr. Spencer Fallgetter because he seems to have a very disconnected approach but I can't deny the results. I cannot begin to show my son's 4th grade teacher Ms. Obradavic enough for her efforts. I have NEVER seen a teacher so involved in my son's success. She is fair handed and often will email me long after working hours to keep the parents posted about events, assignment due dates and concerns. I wish she could teach his class every year as I truly felt she had his best interest in mind. I wish there was a way I could vote her teacher of the year because she deserves it. The school is now an A+++ school which is a testament to just how hard this school and it's staff work towards our children's success.

Mariposa is a wonderful neighborhood school. The staff is dedicated and top notch. We have been at the school for 7 years now and have nothing but great things to say. My family would highly recommend this school to others.
