Paul Munro Elementary School
Belinda: I find Paul Munro to be a very upclose and personal school. I know all of the teachers, they all know who I am, and my son hasn't had most of them. I love the feeling that I can visit anytime, and just spend the day in my son's classroom and give his teacher a hand with her schedule if necessary. They have changed the way me and my son look at school! He is an amazing kid who has ADHD, and the staff has been understanding and willing to work with his situation. I feel lucky that we are a part of the Paul Munro Pride.

Gilford: My two daughters were not challenged at all. This is a Title 1 school and their main focus are on the children that have disabilities more so than the children that are motivated but this resulted in our daughters suffering academically. This is a school that holds to the slogan No Child Left behind but I think they should say they adhere to Most Children Left behind program.
