7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOverall the kids are fantastic. All families support each other and our teachers. Teachers seem to have a family like relationship but taking a deeper dive one would find that there are many issues beyond the walls that start from the top.Other Review6y ago - Perry Street Prep PCS

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOur family is so grateful for Perry Street Prep/ From the moment you walk through the doors, you can feel that it’s a safe, welcoming environment where every child is known and valued. The staff and teachers genuinely care—they know my child by name and take the time to understand their interests, strengths, and needs.Parent Review9mo ago - Burroughs Education Campus

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis is one of the best school that my son had attended. I am so sad that he will not be attending next year because we are moving. I would like to thank every teachers, staff, principal, vice principal, for making a great impact on my son life at John Burroughs. Also, I forgot to mention about the only establish STEM elementary school in the DC area. Thank you again for your support.Parent Review7y ago - Bunker Hill Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe've been at BHES for two years now and it's wonderful. The principal is great and sets the tone for a truly amazing group of teachers and staff. There's a highly active PTO, extra curricular activities, and a close knit community of families that all love the school and are dedicated to making everyone successful. After our first year we decided that we're not bothering to lottery in future years.Parent Review1mo ago - Noyes Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMDS is by far Washington, DC best kept secret. The Staff, I cant say enough good stuff about the care, compassion and overall well being that they have for each and every child that attends this school. I'm so sad to see them close at the end of the year, because my child has learned so much in the last year and i am grateful for them! my child had challenges and they welcomed him in and turned him around and they loved him and praised him and supported him in every effort, This school is Heaven Sent and there will never be another.Parent Review11y ago - St. Anthony Catholic School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI left this workplace due to serious concerns about leadership, professionalism, and the overall safety of the environment. I experienced behavior from administration that made me feel deeply uncomfortable as a woman, and when I raised those concerns, I felt unsupported and that my work environment became increasingly hostile. Leadership lacks a clear vision for the school, which creates ongoing confusion among staff. Expectations are unclear, communication is inconsistent, and decisions are frequently delayed or left unresolved. As a result, the school is disorganized and poorly managed. There were also patterns of unprofessional conduct that raised concerns about student well-being. Important safety issues involving staff conduct were not addressed appropriately, contributing to a culture where concerns did not feel taken seriously. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this workplace to prospective employees or families looking for a safe, structured, and student-centered environmentTeacher Review1mo ago
