Contacted the school for over a year and out of the 100 phone calls only possibly 5 have been answered. Then when you ask if the principal is in office she never is. Doesn’t answer her emails or voicemails and either the secretary’s don’t relay messages or they’re just completely ignoring whatever it is you’re looking into. They have all been extremely nasty on the phone when you tell them you’ve called and nobody is responding. Most likely it was them that didn’t do the work hence the attitude. Dealing with people’s children and hasn’t even responded through any form of communication. Doesn’t get any more unprofessional than that! From the principal to the lowest title they have this school nobody cares about our children very much if they don’t even reach back out to a concerned parent. She’s never in the office so who’s watching after the kids and checking on teachers? She is not fit for this position whatsoever and it has been a horrible experience trying to get ahold of someone it’s like because it’s not their kid they could care less. Wouldn’t recommend this school at all your kids interest is not at heart and the person who should be there the most is hardly in the building. Will be reaching out to the board of education and possibly a civil suite. These people have no shame and this needs to be brought to the light.

I don't even know how this school is still open. Allison Seymour is the worst principal. She is rude, does not respond respectfully to parent concerns, and has taken an already poor-performing school lower in their performance. Maryland state report card rates them as a 1. She cares more about her ego than providing students with the necessary resources to succeed. Resources for students with learning disabilities are a joke and nonexistent. They find it acceptable and see no issues with graduating students who test at a 3rd-grade level. Total incompetence.

There are fights almost everyday, most teachers start to get careless after the first semester and start to get ruder and less helpful. The A/C is almost never on during hot days and the heat was never on during cold days.
