The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students.

We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Overall, Montgomery has been through a multitude of successful highs and disappointing lows, but the school community has been doing its best to rebuild what has been broken.

Teachers in higher level classes are great people but without motivation and drive it is easy to slip through the cracks in our academic system. College readiness is heavily reliant on individual choices with little guidance from anyone at the school itself. Facilities are finally being updated but only because highly controversial news articles and events happened not because admin genuinely cares about the students.

I participated in many of the performing arts at Montgomery and found them all to be extremely helpful to prepare me, as I am pursuing that field. However, the past 2 years have been full of uncertainty regarding the on campus safety and facilities.

My son who was bullied at this school went on to the top Private Schools in the County with MIT following it. He graduated and moved to earning a Ph.D in genomic study. With other colleagues, he founded a Bio-tec Company. And, he was bullied.
