My son is attending Melrose Ave. for the third year and it has been wonderful. From Ms. Strum who my son still misses (no longer at Melrose) to the the principal who shows so much genuine care and concern for the well being of the entire school. Melrose elem. makes it fun to participate in the activities from the town hall meetings to school beautification day.
