This is by far one of the best schools our child has been to. She has been in both public and private schools in the far west valley and they fail in every imaginable aspect when compaired to McDowell Mt. The teachers here have the greatest care and compasion for the childern, the principal is very dedicated to the students and the school, and the parents that are actively involved learn to know the students personally. You get the feeling from the teachers and principal that they are doing this because of their love and commitment to educating childern. Well done McDowell Mt. Elementary!

I have a set of triplets in 1st and one in kindergarten at McDowell Elementary. This is an outstanding school. The teachers recognize and support teaching children at different levels within the same class. Discipline is reinforced and children are properly held accountable for making the right choice. The only thing lacking is an after-school program that would provide an opportunity for kids to explore things like theater, science, foreign language, and recreation. The PTO is spectacular!!

My children have attended McDowell Mountain Elementary school from Kindergarten through 2nd grade. The 3 years we have experienced have been amazing. The teachers are caring and dedicated and have provided my children with a wonderful foundation. The school truly cares about the students and the principal Joanne Meehan knows all of the students by name. The school provides a music class, art class , chess club , computer lab and spanish class. This is also a school with caring and involved parents. The PTO is just one way to become involved. The school encourages parent helpers in the classroom so you can be a partner in your child's education.
