Eton Elementary has faculty and staff that honestly care about their students. The curriculum is excellent. My family participates in all that the school offers "after hours". PTO usually has family activities monthly. The music department is also outstanding. I could go on and on. Not one complaint.

Eton Elementary School, has major issues they have retained my child with passing grades on the report card and passing grade on the CRCT. They retained my child based on his behavior not his academics. Who can say that is a school that is working in the best interest of the children....they feel his shaking leg, twisting of his hair and figeting with his pencil are reason's to retain. I could say ALOT more but this is BIG problem if I do say so myself.

I have been so impressed with Eton Elementary. The staff there are great! In my opinion Eton has a great academic program. The principal, Mrs. Judy Redmond, and vice principal, Brett James, are great with the kids. Out of all the Murray County Elementary schools I think that Eton is the best!
