| ABOUT MARUMSCO HILLS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL |

Marumsco Hills has been part of the Woodbridge Community since 1966. During the planning stages it was called “Longview Elementary School” but was officially named Marumsco Hills Elementary after the neighborhood where it is located. Marumsco Hills Elementary School serves the Woodbridge area. |

| WHAT MAKES OUR SCHOOL UNIQUE? |
|
Marumsco Hills Elementary has many outstanding characteristics and has very high expectations for students and staff. At Marumsco Hills we truly believe that all students will be successful learners. We are very proud to have one ESOL teacher for each grade level (1-5) and a teacher assistant for each grade level in the primary grades (K-3). It is our belief that we can better reach the students with limited English skills when we have an “expert” in this area as part of each grade level team. Collaboration is the key and our staff does an excellent job! Marumsco Hills Elementary School is a recipient of the School of Excellence Award for the third year (2001-2002, 2002-2003 and 2003-2004)!
