Parkwood

Great teachers and staff. Very communicative and responsive. The PTA and wider community are heavily involved.

There is a mean girl culture that is rampant at the school and it is well known throughout the Kensington community. Many families of past generations who went there say the same thing about the bullying that is allowed to happen and remains unchecked. It is an unwelcoming environment from parents, and the Principle had done nothing about, but seems to favor the primary PTA clique that runs the school. Sadly, the mean girls are just like their parents and it's learned behavior. Unfortunately, the teachers or administration are not redirecting this bad behavior when they see it. It's so ironic they proclaim to value the 4 C's to include compassion, when they actually place no value on those virtues by allowing bullying to spread rampant. There is no doubt families will be removing their funding due to the administration looking the other way.
