Normal Park Museum Magnet School

Posted November 3, 2009

There is great parent involvement in this school, which goes to waste. The curriculum is very lacking compared nationally, but about the same as the other local public schools here in chattanooga. They don't have many advanced classes or programs for kids that are at a higher level. Look carefully at their curriculum closely before choosing this school and see if it fits your child. Also, homes in the normal Park area usually tend to be much older and can be run down. Hope this helps.

I have a kindergartner who attends this school and loves it. I am also very pleased with the school. The entire building is stimulating with its decor, the staff is friendly as well as professional and they have great after school programs to join. I'm not sure how the parent involvement goes to waste....And the curriculum is not the same for all. I just had a teacher conference and was pleased to see all of the extra work that was being put forth to challenge my child. My husband initially thought the school was nothing too special until he went to other public schools in the area. I am very happy that my children can walk to school every morning in our quaint neighborhood.

Normal Park utilizes its museum partners in order to strengthen the lessons being taught in the classrooms. The teachers and administrative staff are fantastic and give each child the attention they need in order to learn and thrive in this wonderful environment.

I love this school. My daughter has just started her second year here and loves it. The only eception is the snooty parents. Not all of them are this way but if you dont make as much money as then alot tend to ignore you or act superior. But they are prett easy to ignore. Wonderful school.
