I'm extremely disappointed with the bus service at Paint Branch Elementary. The timing is consistently terrible – my pre-K child's bus arrives around 5 PM, even though school ends at 3 PM. What's worse, one day the bus actually took my child back to the school, and they were there until 5:30 PM with...

You would be better off homeschooling your child than sending them here. The teachers don’t care about truly helping the kids, in part because the administration doesn’t support them. The Chinese immersion program is a joke and not worth sending your child to this school.
