I highly recommend this instution for any student!” Posted By: student Quality Score: 3 2008-01-21 “Maury is a fantastic school with creative and caring teachers; however, I feel like the gap between student's abilities is too big and that students do not respect each other any more.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-09-22 “My twin daughters graduated from Maury in June 2005. The both excelled in school by taking AP classes, participating in a variety of clubs due to a large number of extracurricular activities, taking challenging classes and graduated with GPAs of 3.5 and 4.01. The school changed principals and both were very good. The teachers were hard but great and placed them on the right track and prepared very well for college. They developed friendships and remain in contact with classmates now attending universities and colleges all over the country. PTA was excellent and strong. I have one more daughter, presently in middle school, and you can rest assure that hopefully a Maury Commodore she shall be!

It's academically challenging learning setting allows is 1876 students to excel in whatever they do. I am definitely on the route to reaching my potential, and it took one year at maury to turn me into an honor roll student. I blame maury for all of my success!” Posted By: former student Quality Score: 5 2004-10-20 “Maury is one of the best high schools in Norfolk.

I don't lkie him at all. He changed their schedules and my child and many others don't like it. I want him gone and Maury high school the way it was!” Posted By: other Quality Score: 5 2003-10-24 “I attended Maury from 1993-97, and I'm on my way now to a PhD in English Literature. While high school is a tough time for anyone, I believe the staff and faculty at Maury, for the most part, did their best to make our time there memorable.” Posted By: former student Quality Score: 4 2003-09-04 “I was a student at Maury 1988-1990. It was a great school and offered more programs then the private schools did in the area. Looking back, Maury helped me in my path, along this trip we call life. Thank You.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2003-08-26 “I have one daughter who graduated in 1998. She graduated from an Ivy League university in 2002 and now attends Harvard Law school. She was very thankful for the quality of education she received at Maury, along with the opportunity to get to know people from different backgrounds and economic levels. Currently I have one other child at Maury who is also happy with her classes, and particularly the knowledgable and compassionate teachers who work there.”
