Ah, the old stomping grounds. Martone Elementary is nestled deep within suburbia on the outskirts…read moreof western Modesto, but with that comes a quiet, peaceful environment away from the city. The classrooms comfortably seat around 30 students and the school itself uses a year-round track based system (Red, Blue, Yellow, and Green Tracks) that gives children a small vacation after a month of schooling rather than three months of summer vacation after so many months of being cramped in class. For a working family, this sort of schedule is ideal, but it definitely is a change of pace from other schools that offer only the traditional schedule. Some years ago the school attempted to switch to uniforms, but complaints from both the parents and students seem to have forced Martone to return to casual dress. A fence around the perimeter of the school was installed roughly 10 years ago and a few years after that a small public playground was installed outside of the fence for neighborhood children to play in. The school has large fields of grass for playing in, a baseball diamond that is often used for little-league practice, a playground with jungle gym, monkey bars, and parallel bars (though they've removed the sand and replaced it with wood chips for some ungodly reason), and a large blacktop surface for basketball, dodgeball, tether ball, and that one game where you bounce a ball off of a wall whose name escapes me. The cafeteria manages to seat half of the school comfortably (there are two lunch periods) and there is also plenty of tables and areas inside the open-air school for students to picnic off of. The offices are well run and, as a klutzy kid, I can tell you that the nurse's office comes well-equipped to handle any scrapes that your child might get into on any average day of fun during recess. The staff and faculty keep a close eye on the students at all times, and the library is large enough to even keep a little geek like I was entertained all the way from five years old to twelve. I may be biased, but in my opinion I feel that Alberta Martone Elementary School is one of if not the best elementary school in Modesto.

Moved from the bay area mid year. I have to say, this school has exceeded my expectations. The…read morestaff is friendly and dedicated. The school is just the right size. Classrooms all around with a nice courtyard where kids gather to eat lunch everyday And host Monday outdoor assemblies. My son really blossomed in the 4 months he attended. His confidence went through the roof, he became a lot more artistic and showing interest in New things he was learning from classmates. He felt welcomed and fit right in. It will be difficult to move if i ever have to because the school is that great. I'm looking forward to this next school year and so is my son.

It was nearly the end of July before I finally decided to contact them. Turns out neither of them were accepted without the chance for an interview. Apparently, they are full and wanted to know if we wanted to go on the waiting list. Tell me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't it have been common curtousy to call and let us know you were full? Or just plain tell us we weren't accepted? Yeah, I thought so.

The teachers there do their job, they care about students, and they teach a good curriculum. I was a student here for my four years, class of 21', and overall I enjoyed it. The police department was not too far considering this school is a couple of blocks away from downtown. However, there's a bunch of druggies around the school. Homeless people, gangbangers, weirdos, you name it made the environment less safe. TLDR: good school, terrible neighborhoods.
