Too many rules imposed on children by the administration. Like in a military establishment. The resources are good, the facilities are nice. But my children did not enjoy that school: they lost interest in studying, and went there mostly just to socialise. Not bad academic results overall for the school, but my feeling is that it is achieved by families in the after school activities and at home.

Horrible, they are mean and only care about test scores, not the kids actually learning. I did not know division until I went to another school.

Bowman is a diverse, well-run school. The teachers are great, and I've noticed my child has gained confidence and progressed very well. I left the city because of work, but I'm heading back to Lexington so my daughter can continue progressing.

The curriculum is grade appropriate and the teachers are very creative in many ways to motivate kids. I...
