6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageCurrent Pre-K parent. Takoma is a wonderful school. The principal and AP are super engaged, and the teachers work really hard to make sure the students are learning and developing, and most importantly excited about coming to school everyday.Parent Review11mo ago - Coolidge High School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AveragePrimary concern: SAFETY!!!!… Teachers don’t come to work and the students are pretty much left to do whatever they want on most school days. When a parent calls to complain, the staff argues with the parents in an attempt to dispute and invalidate the complaint. School-wide discipline polices are found to be inconsistent since they are not enforced.Parent Review1y ago - Ida B. Wells Middle School
