Marcy Arts Magnet Elementary School, Minneapolis | Fees, Rankings, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

I went in the middle of 7th grade and all the student were nice to me and the teachers were ok. I’m leaving now in the middle of 8th grade and id say my favorite part was the students. Some of the teachers amazing other are terrible. I feel like student were sometimes over controlled by the behaviorists and student were treated with extreme disrespect. One of the teachers had really bad communications and wouldent even answer simple questions about the work and I felt like I wasn’t learning properly and I don’t think I really learnt a lot in the class. Another teacher I think felt victimized by the students and I feel wasn’t prepared for class and didn’t know how to treat and handle students. I loved the year I spent at Marcy even if I had difficulty with teachers. The friend I made were some of the best friends I’ve ever made, and if your with the right people it’s great. The principal I never got on the bad side of so she was always nice to me but I know she can be pretty double sided. The student in 8th grade are who made the school as amazing as it was for me and without them the school would be like 2 stars, but i think that the people and student around you change how you learn and enjoy situation. Only other problem is that 7th and 8th graders have science, ela, and social studies together with I think isn’t a good learning experience because then the 7th graders are learning to advanced things and 8th graders and learning things we already know.

These reviews are hilarious! It’s pretty obvious that most of the reviews are written by kids. From a parent’s perspective, Marcy is a great school. I have two kids here and couldn’t be happier. The main reason we choose Marcy is because when we were touring schools, the kids here seemed so happy! They were polite, but I could tell that the exuberance of childhood is encouraged here as well. My older kid can be disruptive and has a class clown side to him; the teachers he’s had over the years have worked with him to show fair discipline and are communicative and helpful in working through those issues. They are responsive to emails and are helpful in bringing issues to me so we can work with him at home. I love how the kids stay with the same teacher for two years (except kindergarten). I think that really helps foster trust and being able to work with the same teacher sets consistency and good habits. Marcy is very arts-focused, which I love. I feel as though my kids are getting a good education, are challenged, have fun, meet great friends and are a part of a community that will help support them.

My experience here is RACIST, because it is so bad here there are some racist teachers that have left. The profanity here is over 9000. The are also good teachers too like the little grade teachers. The kids on the bus they sing songs that are not appropriate to school. The kids are fighting all the time on the bus and they bully. The school never bothers to get them. The kids on the bus they also cuss a lot. The teachers never catch them unless its by them.For the sake of your growing kids PLEASE DO NOT BRING THEM HERE FOR YOUR SAKE AND YOUR KID. KIDS get food poisoning from the food here. kids also cuss too much as the older kids in the back.
