Maricopa Elementary School

"I love the teachers there"

"They do the best they can with what they have. Improvements are needed to both staffing and infrastructure. The state of Arizona needs to invest in our children."

"This school does not put a child's need first. This school condones bullying and neglect I would not enroll my child here."

"I loved this school. The teachers were amazing! I got the help I needed with the areas I needed help in and was able to succeed in getting A's and B's. Also the people were amazing, bullying wasn't a problem, and as far as raising money for the children, they knew how to do it and how to do it in a way that everyone loved. They used to have popcorn Fridays, in which they would sell popcorn and also smelly pencils. The food (unlike most schools) was delicious! I had an easy time making friends because we all accepted each other. My favorite part of the year, was the end of the year. Not because it was almost time for me to be rid of school, but because that was when we had the most fun as a student body, and with the teachers. The money we had left over from fundraising we used for the end of the year activities that were super fun. We had ice cream and sno-cones and water slides and other games that were the best. The saddest part of it all was leaving. Only because we were leaving a school that we loved and had a lot of fun at. We would miss everyone, and wish we could stay, but realized that we would see each other again soon and be happy. Maricopa Elementary is the best school I have ever been to. I am proud to say that I attended there for four and a half years, but had to move due to personal issues. I am Jenai Rocha and I am now in the eighth grade, I know this is late, but please consider what I have said."

"Its a good school, went there for 3 years, but the school has become a little unsafe."
