Marvin Elementary School

We've had an excellent experience with this school. The teachers, staff and principal are excellent - great attention to detail, very responsive on email and in person and clearly make an effort to challenge students. Common core is implemented in a superb way! The academically program is outstanding. The afterschool program is outstanding too. The music and art teachers and the programs they put together are oustanding! The PTO is very active and organizes many events and outings. Activities at the school include field trips to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC, a school year-long program organized with the Marvin senior center, art shows, orchestra, an annual field day, learning trips to Calf Pasture beach, the Little Red School House, the Lockwood Mansion, etc. The building and facilities are kept up really well.

I have two girls in Marvin right now....both my girls were lucky enough to go through pre-k at Marvin and are still there today in older grades! We love Marvin and have really found a family there for our children! We love the diversity in a safe setting and a great neighborhood! We are currently Looking for a bigger place to live and although I know they are young and they will adjust staying in the Marvin school district is really a high priority on our list of potential places to live!! Caring loving teachers and excellent academics!!!

Very diverse school with excellent teachers but iffy admin. Too many movies on rain or cold days in lieu of recess.

I have 5 children that went through this school and it is a very nice school for children . The teachers are good and its in a good area where your children are safe . The way the teachers teach at this school all of my children so far have been on honor rolls in the schools that they have went onto after and its all due to the learning skills they have gotton at a young age at this school so I think they deserve to win this money I know they will use it to add to new things for the children at the school .
