Welcome to Mary T. Murphy Elementary School
At Murphy, we are committed to fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment where every student feels valued, respected, and supported. Our diverse community is one of our greatest strengths, and we celebrate the unique backgrounds, cultures, and perspectives that each student and family brings to our school. This diversity enriches our learning experiences and helps us grow as compassionate, understanding, and empathetic individuals.
Collaboration is at the heart of our educational philosophy. We believe that by working together—students, parents, teachers, and staff—we can achieve great things. Our dedicated teachers and staff are here to guide and support all students, ensuring that they reach their full potential. We encourage open communication and active participation from families as we work together to create a positive and nurturing learning environment.
As we focus on higher learning, our goal is to challenge and inspire our students to think critically, explore their passions, and develop a lifelong love of learning. We are committed to providing a rigorous and engaging curriculum that meets the needs of all learners. Our teachers are continuously seeking innovative ways to make learning meaningful, relevant, and fun.
Our motto supports our ongoing focus on academic achievement and attainment of goals as we:
SOAR to our highest height (while being Safe, Organized, Aware and Respectful)
Here’s to a wonderful school year filled with discovery, joy, growth, and success as we continue to create a school experience that is enriching, empowering, and memorable for every student.
