Martin Walker Elementary School

I can't say enough how much i love this school. i drive 20 minutes to take my daughter there and it is well worth it. My daughters teachers Ms. Sides and Ms. Johns are always kind, respectful, friendly and have a great relationship with my daughter and i. the first day of school i fell in love when every single staff member said 'good morning' to my daughter and i with a smile on their faces :)

They have an amazing Pre-K Program!. I have 3 children in 3 different Pre-K Classes and each teacher tends to their own indiviual needs. Everyone from the front office down to the Janitor and Lunch Ladies are guinely compasionate, caring adults. I have spent time with their volunteer program, well organized and they will use all the help they can get to benefit children of ALL ages.

This school is wonderful, My child is in PK and her Teacher is Mrs. Lee. Mrs. Lee works so well with the children. My child comes home teaching me new things that she has learned everyday. Also the people that help with drop and pick are so nice and you can tell they love to be working at this school. Happy teachers, happy kids learn better. Thank you Mrs. Lee for all the hard work you do with our children.

My son has been in this school since Pre-K. Now I have 3 of my 4 kids in this school. I tried them at another school last year, but they were moved right back. The staff is great. Most of them know me on a first name basis. The security at this school is great. I feel safe knowing that not just anyone can walk in and wonder the halls. If it was up to me they would be here the rest of their elementary days, but the new zoning keeps them out next year. This is going to be a hard move for me and them, but honestly I don't have a choice.

When my daughter attended this school, I was very pleased with the whole environment of the school. The teachers were awesome, the principal was very involved and genuinely concerned with the children. After being in the school just a few times, the receptionist knew me on sight, remembered who my child was, and her name! I feel this is a great school and my daughter loved going there.

I feel like my kids get a lot of movement and P.E. but they deifinately lack in Art and extracurricular activities.

This school is very well organized. The teachers are very informed and involved with the students and parents. They keep the parents informed of the childs progress and try to help if the student needs it. The principal is always willing to meet with parents to dicuss the student. the activities are fun for the students and enjoyable for the parents. Like I said the parents are very involved and willing to help out at the school at anytime, most of the volunteers are parents of students that attend the school. I would recommend this school to anyone who wants their child to have the best education advantage they could in this area.

This is a wonderful school. The principal takes a personal interest in the children. He sent me a postcard praising my kindergartener who had read to him something she had written in her 'Writing to Read' Class. The school staff were all very welcoming, which was wonderful. They have a parent lounge where parents can come and volunteer for a specific teacher or any teacher. It is also used for nervous parents leaving their kids at school for the first time. Younger children are welcome in the lounge. This school has won several academic awards. I love their system for dropping off and picking up the children. I can stop by anytime to take lunch with my daughter, I love that! They have family night once a month at the school. Parents are always ecouraged to participate. My daughter really enjoyed attending this school and the staff.
