The teachers and staff always go above and beyond for their students. The community and parents are supportive and the school will let parents volunteer and be a part of the school. The school has afterschool clubs for students and tutoring if needed. YMCA does the afterschool daycare program.

This is the best school in Sumner county. Every single teacher, staff and the principle are on the same page . They use positive reinforcement , and are academically challenging. MY son is six and has autism, and since becoming a mustang he has only progressed and impressed with his social skills and academic skills. This is an amazing school and we are blessed to have found it! Amazing school in a small town!!

Millersville is a nice school and the staff is nice. However it is my belief that they do not challenge students who are excelling faster than the norm.

My son really enjoys going to school here and the teachers and staff have been great. He's learning above his grade. Miss Richard is a overall wonderful teacher she really envolved with her kids.

This has been the best school for my children. I have one still there and she is still excited about going to school and she is in the third grade. This being the only school she has attended. The teachers have all been very good with the children. This school has been the main reason we have stayed in Millersville. They have done so well with our kids.
