M. A. Jones Elementary School
Bridgett: I love M.A. Jones Elementary School. The staff is wonderful. They really do care about the kids at this school. My daughter has been attending for one year now and I am impressed with this school. The PTA meetings always has a nice turn out and the information is very helpful. I don't want my daughter to go to any other school.
