My experience at the Paideia elementary school was deeply disappointing and, at times, distressing. The pay was low, and the overall environment was chaotic, unstructured, and unsafe. There were no clear rules, boundaries, or consistent behavioral expectations for students. Children were often left
Posted by a teacher on 5/15/2025My time at paideia was easily the worst i spent in school. The school claims to foster a space for POC but in reality its just white overload and the minority kids like myself were separated and the curriculum focus was not on uplifting POC but just lecturing white people it sucked. In an ideal worl
Posted by a student on 4/2/2025I was deeply disappointed in The Paideia School. Although the school’s reputation for progressive education initially attracted our family, what we experienced was far the opposite of inclusive. My child often felt isolated and unheard when issues of race arose in class discussions. For a school tha
Posted by a parent on 12/5/2024I wish I could give this school more than 1 star but I cannot.We have a young child who we adopted after being in foster care for 3 years.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe absolutely love Toomer Elementary! The IB curriculum encourages my daughter to think globally and engage deeply with her learning. She’s thriving both academically and socially, and it’s been wonderful to watch her grow in such a supportive environment. The school community is incredibly welcoming and vibrant, from weekly bike buses to events like Screen on the Green and the Race for FATE. We truly can’t imagine a better place for her to learn and flourish.Parent Review1mo ago - Lin Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSuch a great choice for our family over the past three years. MIT is quite well-run, with amazing teachers, high-quality facilities, and very positive parent network. I appreciate that the director is always looking for ways to improve and grow the school, which is not always the case at small private schools. They recently hired for a new position, Pedagogical Specialist, to work across the classrooms, which shows how they reinvest in the kids and in supporting teachers.Parent Review1y ago - Saint Thomas More Catholic School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSTM balances rigorous academics with a supportive community. STM invests in the formation of the whole student—mind, body, and spirit. Through a broad array of academic, curricular, artistic, and athletic programs, students are challenged to discover their God-given gifts. We are thankful for the dedicated teachers who have made our children feel welcomed and safe.Parent Review1mo ago - Uhs Of Laurel Heights
