I have been going to Friends School of Baltimore for 7 years. The teachers are very suited with a curriculum that is challenging and allows students to be ready for college studies. The athletics are suitable for student who want to work hard and have fun. The performing arts program does a very good job at making sure all of the students are able to express themselves. The school overall, had an amazing environment and makes sure all of the students feel safe and welcome.

My son loves it here. He's in 2nd grade and is enjoying the challenge and his teacher. He comes home talking about what he's learned and excited.

It is a very accepting and peaceful school. They use the values of Quakerism to promote equality and offer a lot of financial aid.

Lower school was really fine. Teachers were great and really seemed to love the kids. Middle school is an unmitigated disaster from Admin down the ranks. Do not send your child here. It is not you, it is this school that is downright toxic. Quaker values? Only in the brochure and on the website.
