Our kids have been at JTM for 3 years now and we love it. We've been very impressed by the teachers, coaches, faculty, and especially the principal. Close Quote

The first thing we heard from the 5th grade teaching team was "we do not teach to the test, we teach for learning!" That was refreshing after two solid years of nothing but teaching to the test in 3rd and 4th grades. My daughter is finally learning how numbers work together. Close Quote

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
