As a concerned parent, I feel compelled to share my experience with Bladensburg High School. Unfortunately, my child has had a very negative experience at this school, and I do not feel that the environment is supportive or inclusive.There appears to be a serious lack of support for students, particularly those from diverse backgrounds. My child has repeatedly expressed feeling unsafe and unwelcome at school. The teaching methods seem ineffective, and there is a noticeable lack of professionalism and respect from some of the staff.One of the most disappointing issues has been the repeated denial of my child’s attempts to join the soccer team. He is very passionate about the sport and has tried multiple times to be part of the team, but he feels that he is being excluded due to racial or cultural bias. It is deeply troubling to see a student with genuine interest and talent being denied the opportunity to participate.The overall school environment does not feel inclusive or safe for students who are not originally from the area. As a parent, I am deeply concerned about the well-being and education of my child, and I sincerely hope that the administration takes steps to address these issues.

This school is absolutely awful and need to be shut down in all honesty. It is extremely hard to get an appointment with the principal or guidance counselor. You call the main office and they tell you that you need to email the personnel in order to get an appointment with them yet nobody ever replies back to the emails!! It is ridiculous. Second, the environment is unsafe. Parents are not raising their kids the proper way and there are fights everyday and on the bus. My cousin got punched in the face one day on the bus on her way home because she got caught in the crossfire of a fight on the bus, she was legit minding her own business. Third, the teachers are AWFUL! They dont actually care about the kids learning and having a safe environment for them to express themselves. They constantly ignore the kids when asking for help or ridiculing them for not knowing certain things. My cousin has autism so she needs extra help in class and the school has absolutely failed to give her the help she needs because nobody answers our emails, phone calls, nor give us the time of day when we came up to the school. If moving to this area please be aware of the schools here because they are extremely lacking in everything.

This is our first year and so far, we’re pleased.
