When we decided to move to northern Virginia, my top priority was finding excellent schools where our kids would feel at home and able to reach their fullotential. I was concerned that most of the schools in Loudoun were becoming too large and their education too mass-produced. My husband and I grew up in small towns and we value the personal attention and care that we received, and we wanted that for our kids. Banneker is that and so much more. The minute you walk in the door you can sense the positive energy from the staff and administration. Our son was in a class with 13 other students and he thrived educationally as well as socially. I can't say enough about this little gem of a school, and I feel so fortunate to have found it.

The teachers are amazing, especially the English teachers. The only reason why I did not give five stars is because all my children were bullied, and there were no consequences. One particular PE teacher bullied my child and told her friends not to hang out with her because she was "trouble" and she would never amount to anything, No consequences for that teacher either. Friendly staff, overall a good school.

While I did say some negative things about this school, honestly most of the teachers, students, and administration here do have their heart in the right place. All we need is a little restructuring.
