My son has grown to be quite the little whiz kid during his tenure at Magruder Primary School. I am always amazed with his level of progress. I must say that the administrators there do an excellent job in nurturing the minds of our precious little gems.

The 2009-2010 ratings are based on passing rates on tests taken during the 2008-2009 school year or on overall achievement during the three most recent years. Schools are identified as either Fully Accredited, Accredited with Warning, Conditionally Accredited or Accreditation Denied.
