Bolton Hill

For a moment I hesitated about leaving a review but this sat on my heart...leaving this review could possibly save another family from going threw what my family went threw.I want to start off and say that MR has a Great academic program one of the best in the city. My son is a straight A . My son was accepted in the ingenuity as well as the honor program we decided to go with the honor program just because we didn't want to put too much stress on him little did I know going to MR was going to be stressful entering the main office nothing but rudeness to the principle and assisted principle counselor some teachers not all was the worst, from the bullying to my child wanting to change his appearance to a kid offering my son drugs to a student telling my son that they're going bring a switch to school because they see their oops mind you this is sixth grade talking to the counselor wasn't any better. She told me that no matter if I take my son out of MR or not that all Baltimore city schools are like this. My son would come home crying and upset.I understand that in schools you're going to hit bumps in the road,but not hitting potholes every day mind you we live in Baltimore we know what potholes can do to your car and that is exactly what MR did to my son he would come home and tell me how the principal talk to all the sixth grade and told the students that their given MR a bad reputation, I spoke with the principal,he told me that this has been a very hard year for MR they can't pick and choose who comes to the school I was so upset with myself because I had such high hopes for MR. I have 3 other children and all of them graduated from amazing schools, and I thought that we will have MR under our belt as well,this year has truly been a nightmare. I am the type of parent that when I was called about my child and he did something he had consequences for his actions as parents we have to teach them. That it will always be consequences for your actions and that's where I feel majority of the problem comes from the kids had no consequences...Baltimore city window of transferring is from July 6 to July 29. It's not too late if you chose MR for your child, please do your research I can't speak on the elementary part, but I can speak on the middle.I pray they get the right administration inside the school to bring back the way it was again academically wise I had no complaints mentally and emotionally. It weighed heavy on my family.
