Mariposa Elementary School

Posted September 27, 2009

My child attended Mariposa for the 1st time this past year and it was a good experience. I attended each of the field trips & felt they were both educational as well as well planned. I feel the Principal truly cares & is very involved as both a school official & a parent. She too has a child at the school. I do have a is that the school is an open campus concern about the security of an open style campus. I am opposed to small kids walking to the office to turn in attendance forms. That should be a job for an adult. It is too risky in this day to chance 6 year olds to not wonder or be lured away. Additionally, I am severely opposed to the school being used as a polling site. This invites the opportunity of strangers wandering on to the campus.

This school takes way too many field trips. Most of them have no educational purpose at all. I send my child to school to learn not to take walks to the park or take a class trip to the movies. My child has been on 8 field trips this school year and in expected to take another one in 2 weeks. Unbelieveable.

I have lived in small towns before and I rate Mariposa as one of the best. Mariposa Elementary is a great school. The teachers and staff really care and take the time with the kids. You can call the classroom if you need to relay a message to your child, which is amazing to me. This is a wonderful school and town to be part of.

Mariposa is a joyful place to learn and volunteer. The principal is an outstanding 'people person' and a wonderful academic leader, the teachers love and support kids, and the office staff is always friendly and top notch! We have great test scores, wonderful activities and super communication. We feel so lucky to be here!
