After 6 years at ITDS this will be our last. When our youngest started the school felt like an oasis in a sea of mediocre public and charter schools. Now sadly it simply is not what it was. Teacher retention is abysmal, discipline problems are common, students are just generally not motivated to lea
Posted by a parent on 1/22/2024We love ITDS. Overall, it is a warm and vibrant learning community. The parent community is very engaging and involved. However, it is at times difficult to build relationships with other families for your children, as there seems to be some separation that occurs in the early childhood years among
Posted by a parent on 9/13/2023This school is not what it was 5 years ago. The new principal had kids including mine eating in silence as a community wide punishment which is not the kind of thing we were used to in our previous time there. This school used to keep it's teachers but a lot have left recently.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageDuring my son's last year at this school (before transferring out), every one of his teachers left in the middle of the school year. I wish we had left earlier. I had great expectations, but it was a horrible experience.Parent Review8y ago - Langley Elementary School

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOverall our experience has been great. The teachers truly go the extra mile for all the students, regardless of whether they are behind or advanced. Most of the kids in my child's class are right on grade level and there is also an advanced reading group. My child has loved all of the teachers and also loves the family events. We are so excited and proud to be part of a school that is improving.Parent Review6y ago - Lee Montessori PCS

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWhere do I begin??? Mrs. Garris and Ms. Moten are absolutely EVERYTHING. They are patient, consistent, and always willing to help. I had 3 children attend this school over multiple school years. Ms. Cummings and Ms. Murcia are BOMB DOT COM. My daughter is a picky eater and by the end of the year, Ms. Cummings had her eating fruits and veggies that she wouldn't even LOOK AT before the school year started. Ms. Murcia is the GOAT of field trips. My son was on a trip (it seemed like) every month. They did projects and always had homework. I'm not sure if Ms. Murcia is still there, but she is awesome. Family engagement is actually upheld at Harmony. I must say I haven't had a school experience like Harmony before, and haven't had since we left. The ONLY reason we are not there anymore is because we moved to Maryland. I would absolutely recommend this school for grades PreK3-2nd as those are the only grades I experienced with my kids. I'm not sure how the higher grades are, but Harmony absolutely SPOILED our family with their care and attention to our needs. Secondary shoutout to Mr. Culha for always being a great listener to my concerns, and following up to make sure that the issues were resolved.Parent Review9mo ago
