A large, spacious, tree-shaded playground has always been a focal point, providing much pleasure to young and old over the years. Mandeville Elementary's greatest strength lies in its population. It is the people that give MES its spirit, its heart beat, its joy of being. First, and foremost, there are the children who come to school demonstrating an eagerness to learn and a willingness to cooperate. Then there are the teachers, dedicated and concerned, committed to academic excellence and social responsibility.
Parents provide the support needed to make a good school great.
Without their many volunteer hours, the school could not achieve its commitment to excellence. Support staff provide services above and beyond the call of duty through their commitment to providing an environment that is safe, clean, and healthy. Finally, there is the administration that provides the leadership necessary to guide, protect, and promote those qualities which make a school effective while maintaining a vision of the future. A school-based, staff development program designed by the faculty provides the training and expertise necessary to maintain a cohesive, coordinated, instructional program. Addressing topics related to research-based learning and providing the time, resources and materials for implementation and reflection, all instructional staff participate throughout the year.
