We moved to Basking Ridge few months ago and Mount Prospect is everything we expected and a bit more! Mount Prospect has all the ingredients for a successful school -- Involved and dedicated Principal/Staff, Great teachers, State of the art facility, Excellent learning environment and a very competitive batch of students. We are very happy with the school.

The school is great. It has many intelligent teachers AND students. There are many interactive activites like bake sales, holiday boutiques, and raffles. There are also a lot of friendly students willing to become friends with new students. The students are very well taught by the fantastic teachers always working hard. The staff and prinicpal work EXTREMELY hard to improve the school, with the help of student council. The school includes many academics, like many speeches starting from 1st grade, a colonial fair, projects and much more.

Fantastic, Dedicated teachers. Staff can be difficult to get a hold of, but the experience for our children has been phenomenal - this school has stronger academics than the private schools I have visited.

Mount Prospect is an excellent elementary school with caring teachers and a responsive principal. Their teachers are the cream of the crop as the school feeds into Ridge H.S. which was ranked in the top 100 High Schools across the county for academics achievement. The school reminds me of the United Nations School which is one of the top private schools in the country for all foreign diplomat's children. The multi-cultural aspect of the students makes all of the children well rounded and respectful of the different cultures and religions around the world. I am very pleased that my children attend Mt. Prospect Elementary School.
