(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Wow! I am so surprised at the negative comments. My children's experience at JMS was phenomenal. I see in them even today, and my oldest is in college, how their education at JMS formed their critical thinking, time management, and prioritization skills. They are hard workers who enjoy other people and take an active role in their educations. It is true that the building is older, but I thought they did a nice job maintaining both the facility and the materials in the classrooms.
