I have 3 children that attended this school. The best quality about this school is the safety of the children, snack time, and lots of playtime. However, education is lacking at this school. There were some excellent teachers that my children benefited from; but they were the exception. Parent's involvement could be improved especially in their own child's education. Great idea about getting a new computer in each classroom, but they have them now and all they did was gather dust. Leadership, dedicated teachers and parents, pencils, paper, and textbooks are all that is needed to motivate our students to learn.

My daughter is currently a 3rd grade student at Merrymount and we've been very pleased with her experience there so far. The teachers are outstanding, and the principal is an efficient administrator who also provides a warm and welcoming presence. Their test scores are well above average and they also offer a variety of extracurricular activities. There is a great deal of parent involvement and I've been very impressed by this year's efforts to organize a fundraising event that will provide brand new computers throughout the school. Merrymount is definitely one of the best elementary schools within the Quincy school district.
