Let me start with the positive side of this school. Most of the class teachers are super nice! Our child has been in this school for 5+ years and came across all the wonderful teachers. Per my child, most of the students are friendly and from good educational families. We are giving 3 stars for class teachers and their teaching skills.But there are several negatives about this school. Even though all parents knows about it we can't do nothing. We are not able to switch to another school as there are no better options at this location.Negatives: 1. They raise their monthly fees every year but they don't improve any quality to their services. My kid always complains about spider webs in the bathrooms and it's always very dirty. So, he refuses go to bathroom and holds for whole day. 2. No extra curricular activities like sports tournaments like running, soccer, basketball, table tennis or any competitive events for building children's physical and mental strengths.3. No fun events; students should have singing and dancing, cultural events, talent show, etc.4. No sports equipments provided to students; they could have provided at least these basic sports equipments: PingPong tables, chess boards, soccer balls, basketballs, volleyballs, etc. So, kids can have fun on recess time or after school time.We hope school administration will take necessary action work on it to improve.

We chose this school as we had not heard or read good reviews of our local public school. He has the best time at the school and is excited to go. He saw great growth during his time there. The teachers and staff care for the students and are very competent. The let the kids express themselves and let their personalities shine. It is easily one of the better schools in Union city.

My Twins now in Fifth grade have been going to this school since Pre-k. It is amazing how much enthusiasm my girls have daily in getting up on their own to start the school day. They are obviously doing something right. Mr. Lin is their current teacher and my girls have been fortunate to have had many, many amazing teachers at MHMS. I've considered other private schools, but wanted to make sure that the school wasn't only focused on academics. MHMS has provided my girls a well rounded education, where kids can still be kids. I've watched my girls blossom and grow with the school. They have met many good friends through the years. The start of the 2020 school year with Virtual school was a change, but the school seemed to have gotten the right formula with Mr. Lin. I can't say for the other grades or the other teachers. Learning from home has truly been an experience. MHMS, has in my opinion done a very good job keeping the kids on a schedule and making sure that kids are able to interact virtually. It brings me joy when I see them laughing with their teacher and friends. I feel my girls have really embrace this new way of learning. A bit more screen time than I would like, but it feel they have really adjusted to their new online environment. They have gotten more technically savvy and have even significantly improved on their typing skills. I'm not saying that as a parent we do not have to put in the effort to reinforce their learning, but that's with any child's education. We can't expect the school to do everything. Recently, MHMS parents were asked to do a survey to get a consensus on our thoughts regarding hybrid learning. I was open to Hybrid learning, but wanted to get my girls feed back before replying. I felt that it was important to get my girls feed back since they have adapted well to the new environment. No surprise, my girls said that they preferred to stay with online learning till the end of the school year if that was an option. They are okay to wait to the following school year to do in person learning. I will see how the rest of the school year plays out. No school is a perfect fit for all, but MHMS has definitely made our family feel welcome each time we visited the school. The front desk staff know my girls by their names. I don't know any staff that I've met that I have not liked(Too many to name) As far as cost of tuition. How can anyone complain, with the cost of tuition that includes study hall and late after school care. People that complain about the cost obviously have not looked at how much after school care costs. Thank you MHMS for teaching my girls to be independent and most of all happy waking up to learning. I've been meaning to write a review for a while, but just never found the time to do it.

My 2 kids attended this school. One of them already graduated and on his way to college. Other one is a senior and doing very well. I strongly suggest this school anyone who's looking for an affordable private school.

"Mom, why did you come early to pick us up!" that's the sentiment of both my kids when I go pick them up early. I have a 7th grader and 4th grader at the school where they have been there since Pre-K. Both my husband and I have demanding jobs. The biggest comfort is knowing your kids are safe, having fun in school and learning to their best potential. You get all that and more with MHMS. It takes a village, right? Well MHMS truly provides the extended family needed to make your child the best that they can be. Is the school perfect, no, however, the administration works with the parents and the kids to make sure that they are doing what's best for the kids. My kids have gone to Stratford and I have family members going to Challenger. The education curriculum is up to par if not more. the class sizes are ideal and every teacher and administrator knows every kid in the school. The after school clubs are the most diverse that I have ever seen M-F the kids are able to do something beyond school, with people you trust at the place they love to be. This is one private school that provides team sport opportunities which is almost unheard of at any other private school. Affordable, reliable, safe, fun...I can go on. I'll leave you with one last thought. School starts at 8:30a however, you have the opportunity to drop your kids off at 7:30a. How many kids do you know that are waking YOU up to get ready and get to school? I would say, most kids at MHMS. That's the educational "village" that MHMS has built.

What more can you ask for when your child doesn't want to leave the school in the evening and wants to spend the night in the school too? Teachers and all the staff are very amicable and approachable. The puma trail method of teaching helps my son understand his concepts really well. Even in kindergarten he is so motivated to do his homework all by himself. The school has been very supportive and works with every child's behavioral development. There are so many choices for after school clubs that the kids can explore. All this with affordable tuition and free after school! MHMS is definitely a hidden treasure!

I haven't actually had anyone attend this school, so I can't attest to the academics at all. I am reviewing the school as a location to go for a walk and take my dogs. It has a huge field next to many basketball courts. It is a great place to go and play sports or hang out in the field. If you are the only ones in there, it's possible to let the pups run freely, but I wouldn't do this if there were other people in there, especially kids. It seems like a clean place and has all the space you could ask for! It is just down the street from our house, so we walk there, but it seems like the parking is really bad during school hours. Just driving down Tamarack at that time is hectic. Definitely a great place to hang out! Looking forward to coming back here when the weather clears up.
