Manassas Park Elementary School

I think this is an amazing and unique school system. We lucked out moving here and not even realizing the very special nature of MP schools.

I have been disappointed thus far with MPES. The curriculum is far behind state regulations in my eyes, I'm sure that's due to the majority of students with English as a second language. The school lunches are horrible and repetitive the entire year. The pickup and dropoff experience is mismanaged and frustrating. The school itself is extremely nice, well-kept, and clean. Minimal programs to incorporate family interaction throughout the year. I'm hoping the school board changes that were made this year will make a difference, coupled with the extensive conversations we've had with the principal. There are no other realistic alternatives in the area which is extremely concerning. Be prepared to be disappointed

The teachers and staff are all very helpful, except for the principal Ms. Mommond. We moved a couple of times during the school year temporarily. but my daughter wanted to keep on going to MPE because of her friends and eventually we would be moving back to MP. Ms. Mommond sent police officers about 4 times to my relatives house instead of coming to an understanding and reaching out to me prior to sending officers. In addition the school superintendent was also rude in a school meeting, I felt attacked as a parent. I can not believe a person like herself is qualified to be a school principal.

Excellent school, amazing teachers and administrators. Would highly recommend.
