This school has done a poor job of supporting and protecting our child. They have a serious bullying problem which they pretend to be helpful with and will meet with you and talk about how seriously they take things but the reality is that they don't really do anything about the problem. After numerous incidents in over a year and several meetings we finally called the police. The officer asked if we had filled out the bulling form/incident report, at this point the staff acknowledged the existence of the form and informed us that we could have found it anytime online. This was precisely the type of thing we had been asking them about but they had kept from us because these forms when submitted count against their record. I do think the teachers are good and have tried to support our child but the administration is not up to par.

I am deeply disappointed in my children's experience at this school from the administrators to the many checked-out teachers we encountered. Their academics have been passable but far from great. When we have encountered difficulties at various points, the school has not been supportive in resolving issues. If given a choice, I would never choose to send them to this school.

My child started high school this year and is in special education and has an IEP. The administration staff are unresponsive and ignore emails from parents. The only school in MCPS that continues to hold virtual IEP meetings. He was put in a Math 180 intervention but there was only one teacher trained in the program so my son chatted with classmates and played on his cell phone for 8 weeks until the school finally gave attention to him with a electronic classroom focused on Delta Math. His IEP provides a dedicated para to assist him with staying on task due to his ADD. We are 10 weeks in to the year and still no para has been hired. Very frustrating and disappointing.
