(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - My children attend Matthews Elementary and we love it. We moved from Jackson and I was a little nervous about the school system but asking around I heard nothing but positive things. Once we enrolled I found that out for myself. The staff is friendly and welcoming and the work is challenging.
