Is is a great community of diversity. The teachers and staff are amazing in that they are caring and get really teach the kids. It is also a BCPS Passport school which means that the kids begin learning Spanish in 4rth and 5th grade. The tablet PC devices are now implemented there as well.

My son has been attending since 2011 and I have not seen a reason to praise this school. They do not stay on top of my son's academic, but rather spend more time on his behavior. The teachers are always out, how does one expect the kids to learn with substitutes daily.

We moved here from the Midwest midway through the fall semester and found the staff and teachers to be very welcoming. There was a bit of a learning curve as far as getting up to speed on school processes and culture, but we never felt lost or like we were being a nuisance when we asked for guidance...
