"Great extracurricular activities and sports. Science Olympiad is always best in state. Teachers, Pupil Services, and Substitutes have bad teaching ability and they are very weak. The principal should retire."

"What an incredible school is all I can say. Every grade has excellent teachers and the curriculum is very integrated. The small class size cannot be found anywhere else (20 students). It's a private education on a public budget. My son has thrived and excelled academically. He has been challenged and his mind engaged. The science program has to be the best in state by far. Three years running as Science Olympiad State Champions! I have older kids that went through Marie Murphy but it wans't as good than. They certainly have there act together. And most importantly my son his happy and secure and thriving in this nurturing environment. I just cant say enough I could go on and on!"

"This school has many great teachers and a great deal of parental involvement. Unfortunately there are some poor teachers and the pupil service department is especially weak."
