I was bullied at this school and they did nothing about it until I was so depressed I could barely attend. I was crying about it during an assembly (quietly) and the principal and counselor called me out infront of almost the entire school. I was eventually called into the counselors office to talk and I told him all the information he needed. I was very uncomfortable being near my bully who was an ex friend and i didnt feel safe talking to her. The principal knew this and told me I HAD to talk to her after spring break even though I begged her not to make me. After this happened, I left the school. Would not recommend this school at all. I have heard multiple stories about peoples children being bullied for YEARS with no punishment.

The principal is very kind and highly involved with the families, maintaining excellent communication. The school ensures a safe environment, as entry to the campus is strictly through the front office. The special education teachers are phenomenal, especially Ms. Stephanie Lee. They truly care about the children and take the time to know each student by name.At the end of the day, as parents, we are our childrens strongest advocates. We cant simply drop them off and pick them up, expecting great results without our involvement. Its essential to be engaged in every aspect of their education. Join the PTO and School Site Council to actively contribute and make a difference in their educational journey.

I could have never picked a better school for my grandson to go to. Every teacher every volunteer all the staff has alway put 110% or more to help every student do there personal best in what ever has to be done. From the classroom to the library down to the cafeteria workers. Even with our new principal that has only been there for a year she cares just as much as the principal we had before. My grandson and granddaughter as well as all the other children's that go to Mission Elementary I know are happy and proud to learn and enjoy going to school every day. To Mission Elementary Thank You Bunches.... :):):)
