My son is in Perrywood, and we've had a great experience. He is TAG-identified, and the TAG enrichment program within the school seems to be doing a great job. The school needs to improve its social events, such as recitals and music performances, especially during special occasions.

This is my child’s second year at KMSSI. The campus is clean, well-managed, and quietly located in the Upper Marlboro suburbs. At this school, the teachers and staff genuinely care about students and strive to create a positive learning environment. The staff's communication style could improve, as announcements are sometimes shared at the last minute and lack key details. Parents are routinely bypassed when delivering critical info about opportunities for participation in sports, SGA, clubs, and leadership activities. Often only the students are notified and parents are left out of the loop. The PTA seems to help close the gap with families. Still, the school is showing real progress under Principal Strother’s and Vice Principal Greene’s leadership. There are fewer fights on campus and academics are clearly a focus. The school's Spanish Immersion program also makes this school unique, offering students an opportunity to develop valuable bilingual skills in a diverse environment.

4 years at Wise and no regrets. The leadership has shown great improvement under Dr. Washington. While there is always room for improvement, she has been quick to recognize the areas of concern and act on it.
