"McLaughlin Park has leash laws but people disregard them. Unfortunately there is no enclosed dog park close to the area. People take their dogs off leash at McLaughlin. The ones who do usually don’t have control of their dogs. Otherwise those who keep their dogs on leash are great."

"I generally feel safe walking around; it can be a workout as it’s a literal hill but finally getting home and getting to rest is always rewarding. Weekends during the school year get loud because of all the college parties. "

"Area is slowly gentrifying, mainly filled with college students. Some cute restaurants and fitness studios are opening up. Definitely more secluded and residential the deeper you get into Mission Hill."

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageExcellent cirriculum and access to higher levels of academics. Majority of teachers are easy to communicate with and have rapid channels to speak within a reasonable timeline. Safety is the upmost importance and unfortunately, from personal experience, multiple kids feel unsafe and have been victims of conflict amongst their peers in alarming circumstances and at such a close distance from the school grounds. Currently policy has been allegedly to that both parties, the suspected attacker(s) and victim along with their parents will receive mass punishment from the school without legal precedence. These actions have been expressed by superintendent and principles alike, that theres is issues of understaff and opinions of other parents suspect that this is in the hope that the informal actions do not get disputed where formal process would have to begin only when legal actions are discussed agaonst the school. I would not recommend this school unless you are in a position to hold the administration accountable and ensure their upholding the standards. Every month theres something new where our kids and their friends are getting injured in some shape or fashion and currently is out of control. There are mentally disabled children amongst the kids that show irrational behavior towards them and do receive punitive action or extra guidance from the staff. Eventually this will lead to further injury for both staff and families.Parent Review2mo ago7 Reviews - Our Lady Of Perpetual Help/Mission Grammar School
