BALMORAL Plan in Brickyard by Drees Homes
Leesburg, VA 20176

Being a student here, I like the overall kindness of the teachers, and they are all really helpful. The area is good too.

Graduated in 2018, and overall I think I had a decent experience with Loudoun County. It wasn't the best, but it certainly wasn't the worst either. My biggest issue was that I rarely felt the school provided support and safety from harsh punishment and discrimination--in my memory, I felt these issues were only ever addressed when they became significant enough problems that the school could NOT ignore them and had to act or risk pushback from the community. I also distinctly remember a significant lack of support for disabled students in need of accommodations--for example, my stepbrother required accommodations for a learning disability, and year after year he had teachers who outright refused to accommodate him until my stepmother made a scene about it and forced their hand. I did have some absolutely amazing teachers, and overall I think that the teachers are passionate and dedicated professionals who want their students to succeed. However, the teachers who were bad were *REALLY* bad. For the most part, I think the best way to sum up my experiences with Loudoun would be to say that most of its problems aren't unique, and it has a lot of good, like most of the staff. However, the bad things are issues that won't be addressed until it becomes a problem for the school's reputation, so keep that in mind.

My children love attending Evergreen Mill Elementary School. The teachers are so enthusiastic and caring. The staff is helpful and approachable and PTA very involved. There are always fun, educational and enriching activities and events throughout the school year.
