What a super nice school!…read more I participated in an hour-long "outreach" event this month; October 2021 at Enochs Highschool in Turlock, California. I have to this date, never encountered so many genuinely friendly and helpful young people. NAMI Stanislaus, The National Alliance on Mental Illness is the non-profit, grassroots organization I was volunteering for to get the word out about NAMI On-Campus, a NAMI supported program, student organizational group here at Enochs Highschool. This student-ran with adult supervision group provides outreach for the young students in supporting mental health, speaking about it, and stamping out the stigma which can accompany it for the young. The students got along and many were dressed up in 70's Disco Era clothing which looked great and authentic as at their lunch break, they mingled, visited our table full of informational stuff and complimentary items. All the teachers and school personnel I encountered were professional, friendly, and genuinely helpful. The campus and the landscaping were very well maintained and welcoming. This is a very well maintained & super clean school.

I never thought that I would send my kids to a private school because of the stigma of them. My children have excelled academically and spiritually. They have built long lasting friendships . Mc may not be for everyone but it sure has been good for us. I was once told by someone why do you want your kids to be sheltered , I said I'm not sheltering them but I'm simply protecting them . Look out into our world and see how much are children are up against . Come and give MC a try .

As a student, it was nice until the fights and the other students acted a muck, but the principals…read morewere cool. I had a few times where my ex boyfriend threatened my friends with a knife, and then got expelled. My friend ex was also just as bad, was also expelled. They always make us safe, and the people who worked there always kept us safe. I remember one year, I think 2022-2023 school year, there was a student with something dangerous. I watched as he ran from the police on campus and one of our principals (vice or regular) just stuck out his arm and stopped the boy. To this day I honestly don't know what he had, but I dont think I ever saw him again.

Principal Pope was in charge and if my daughter went across the street to have lunch with the Dickens family, he would call me and ask me if it was OK. Kindergarten was all day and the children learned lots of stuff, worthwhile reading math, political science history and they even had music classes. I am so grateful that both my boy and girl were able to go there. It was really a country school run by Mr. Pope and his son did the yardwork and ran the bus so it was truly a family school

Ah, the old stomping grounds. Martone Elementary is nestled deep within suburbia on the outskirts…read moreof western Modesto, but with that comes a quiet, peaceful environment away from the city. The classrooms comfortably seat around 30 students and the school itself uses a year-round track based system (Red, Blue, Yellow, and Green Tracks) that gives children a small vacation after a month of schooling rather than three months of summer vacation after so many months of being cramped in class. For a working family, this sort of schedule is ideal, but it definitely is a change of pace from other schools that offer only the traditional schedule. Some years ago the school attempted to switch to uniforms, but complaints from both the parents and students seem to have forced Martone to return to casual dress. A fence around the perimeter of the school was installed roughly 10 years ago and a few years after that a small public playground was installed outside of the fence for neighborhood children to play in. The school has large fields of grass for playing in, a baseball diamond that is often used for little-league practice, a playground with jungle gym, monkey bars, and parallel bars (though they've removed the sand and replaced it with wood chips for some ungodly reason), and a large blacktop surface for basketball, dodgeball, tether ball, and that one game where you bounce a ball off of a wall whose name escapes me. The cafeteria manages to seat half of the school comfortably (there are two lunch periods) and there is also plenty of tables and areas inside the open-air school for students to picnic off of. The offices are well run and, as a klutzy kid, I can tell you that the nurse's office comes well-equipped to handle any scrapes that your child might get into on any average day of fun during recess. The staff and faculty keep a close eye on the students at all times, and the library is large enough to even keep a little geek like I was entertained all the way from five years old to twelve. I may be biased, but in my opinion I feel that Alberta Martone Elementary School is one of if not the best elementary school in Modesto.

Classrooms all around with a nice courtyard where kids gather to eat lunch everyday And host Monday outdoor assemblies. My son really blossomed in the 4 months he attended. His confidence went through the roof, he became a lot more artistic and showing interest in New things he was learning from classmates. He felt welcomed and fit right in. It will be difficult to move if i ever have to because the school is that great. I'm looking forward to this next school year and so is my son.

The teachers there do their job, they care about students, and they teach a good curriculum. I was a student here for my four years, class of 21', and overall I enjoyed it.

Homeless people, gangbangers, weirdos, you name it made the environment less safe. TLDR: good school, terrible neighborhoods.
