I have 2 boys at Marengo Ranch. I am pleased with the education they have received. The teachers at MRE have been wonderful. The principal has provided an environment where both students and teachers are able to thrive. She has brought in new programs that include the arts. She has expanded the physical activity programs. In addition, there is after school Academies which include, art, chess, tennis, running and singing classes. All are fee to all MRE students. Band is encouraged. There is extra academic support for students when needed. The school has won an award for displaying positive character traits. Positive actions towards peers is encouraged and rewarded. I feel my children are recognized as individuals at this school and well taken care of. The teachers, principal and staff at MRE are warm and caring people. There is a great deal of parent participation. I highly recommend this school.

I am disappointed to see such a vicious and childish response from one of our teachers. I can honestly say this school is outstanding. I have experienced nothing but support from the staff and teachers at this school. The environment is supportive, encouraging and safe. This makes me sad because it hurts our school. The people who work and volunteer at the school strive to make a safe, educational and happy environment for our children. We work together with the community to do so. It is a parents right to express their feelings. Hopefully, you will give us another chance to do better.

Kind of ironic that a parent gets on the internet to complain about a teacher who was on the internet not paying attention to there child. Who was paying attention to your child while you were on the internet complaining? Maybe we should turn you in to CPS for child neglect. This is incredible, if you have an issue with a teacher talk to the teacher. Do not complain about them on the internet because your child received a low mark and now you are upset.

Horrible teacher involvement for one particular 4th grade teacher! She would rather shop on the internet than pay attention to the students in need of a little extra help.

I have two children in the MRE and we are very pleased with the level of attention both my children receive with their learning. Some teachers communicate more than others, so the expectations of communication needs to come from the parent(s). The schools extra assistance programs are great! We have had one child in the speech and reading programs and this has helped tremendously. Overall the school is a great fit for my children.

I have a 4th grade boy who attends MRE> He is an E/D child with some L/D and the staff there have been phenomonal in seeing that he reaches grade levels. He has progressed more in the 4 months he's been there than all the years in Stockton Unified!

I was sceptical about placing my children in the public school system. However, our experience with Marengo Ranch Elementary has been outstanding. One of my sons has autism; the principal and staff have been very responsive to his needs. As a result he is able to meet and sometimes exceed grade-level standards across all areas.

Amazing school! A true sense of community exists at MRE. Both of our children have attended this school throughout their elementary school years. We were very excited to learn that our youngest daughter will be staying another year since they are adding sixth grade next year! The staff not only works hard on the academics, but also focus on building strong character too. Marengo Rocks!
