We could not be happier with MMS. We moved from abroad and our daughter's school there was a private British school that followed an IB curriculum. Our transition to MMS has been seamless and our daughter is extremely happy. She has made great friends as well. The teachers have been a great support and pushed her to excel. I am slightly worried as the principal just retired but am confident the district will find a very capable individual to fill in her shoes (and those are some pretty big shoes to fill, she was amazing!)
If you are looking to give your children the best classroom education and developmental experience that you can provide - this is it. We looked at all the schools in the area, including public and private offerings. GFA in Greens Farms was equivalent and might be better for those in need of a smaller school, a 'fresh start' socially or a less-competitive athletic scene. However, the competition at Darien keeps our Girls on their toes and prepared. It was the better choice for us. The girls are surrounded by exceptional classmates and feed off of that spirit of competition in a way that they just could not be matched in a 'lowest-common-denominator' school environment. Our MMS teachers are very involved and really love what they do. The athletics and academics at MMS are truly top-50 in the U.S. Community involvement in supporting the school, extracurricular activities and the children is high. I respect the different opinions presented by some students and parents on this site. I just disagree with them. MMS rocks!
I have 2 kids 7 & 8 grade and they are very happy to go to M.M. School everyday and we are so glad to have them there
Well, it's alright. There are some teachers who care and are nice, and some are snobby and do not care. The school is fake. I am a 7th grade student who grew up in New York. Yes, there was bullying in New York, yet, the teachers took care of it. The bullying here is MUCH worse. It's ignored. Overall, the academics are pretty good, but so many tests.
