Posted by a parent on 3/17/2023It was a good middle school until the pandemic. After, the teachers in high school refused to accept that there was a lag in learning and called my son lazy.

Posted by a parent on 8/11/2022I am an alumnus of St. A's high school. I entered because my parents moved to DC and I couldn't get in anywhere else at the start of freshman year.

Teachers seem to have a family like relationship but taking a deeper dive one would find that there are many issues beyond the walls that start from the top.Other Review6y ago - Perry Street Prep PCS

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis is one of the best school that my son had attended. I am so sad that he will not be attending next year because we are moving. I would like to thank every teachers, staff, principal, vice principal, for making a great impact on my son life at John Burroughs. Also, I forgot to mention about the only establish STEM elementary school in the DC area. Thank you again for your support.Parent Review6y ago - Bunker Hill Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe've been at BHES for two years now and it's wonderful. The principal is great and sets the tone for a truly amazing group of teachers and staff. There's a highly active PTO, extra curricular activities, and a close knit community of families that all love the school and are dedicated to making everyone successful. After our first year we decided that we're not bothering to lottery in future years.Parent Review2w ago - Washington Yu Ying PCS

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe school has one of the best administrations in all of DC. They are responsive and accessible. They have very low teacher turnover and the academics are excellent.
