Good teachers and most things are fine but the hallways make it hard to get from class to class also the banned backpacks

Lots of activities and good range of electives to choose from. The magnet program was not a toxic culture and provided a good educational experience. Overcrowded.

I had an amazing experience in the math, science, and computer science magnet program with some truly incredible teachers and peers.

I was searching for a good school for my son who is mixed. I looked at Howard County but the good schools are not diverse. So I found this school which my kid is very happy and learning a lot with the great staff. I also like how each floor is separated by grade level.
