  • THIS SCHOOL SUCKS BIG TIME. THE LITTLE KIDS RUN THIS SCHOOL. NO ADULT HAS CONTROL IN THIS SCHOOL. THEY DO NOT CARE THAT YOUR CHILD GETS BULLIED BY OTHERS. THE ONLY TIME THEY STEP IN IS WHEN YOUR CHILD DEFENDS HIMSELF. THEN THEY GET IN TROUBLE, BUT NOT THE ONE WHO STARTS IT. THIS IS THE WORST SCHOOL. YOU ARE TAUGHT BULLING 101 AND HOW TO GET AWAY WITH IT.

  • kids run this school, not the adults. they are all for bullying and they dont do anything to stop it. there is not one adult that takes charge in that school. if you want your child picked on then send them here.

  • I have great memories of attending this school back in the 1980s. I've seen what it looks like now from the outside, and boy have times changed! Don't know who's still there and who isn't, but hopefully they're keeping up the great tradition that this school is known to Union Beach residents for.

  • I am very happy that Memorial School has kept the same principal and vice principal for the past couple years. It is SO important that the front office administration remains consistent. How else do you get to know your students as they progress through each grade? Go through the ups, downs that adolescence, pre-teens and teenagers go through. PLEASE stay consistent! It will make a huge difference for our kids. Thank you!

  • Opendoor policy's a joke it stops at the front desk that you have to get buzzed into,the bureaucrats that run the school put the kids second and their image first.you cannot walk into the school to see your kids without making an appt. so the teacher knows you're coming. it's all too secretive.
