2023-2026 I must say AMS has made such a wonderful impression on my girls. The staff makes my kids feel seen. The administration loves my kids to pieces and it's been a joy knowing my kids are genuinely cared for while they are there.
Posted by a parent on 2/17/2026Middle School is a tough age no matter the school your kid goes too. Parent your kid and help them to establish good friendships and middle school will be that much easier. Our experience at AMS was good.

Posted by a student on 9/17/2025Middle school is generally a tough time for kids but I feel like the staff at AMS really care about helping the kids get through this time why addressing their social emotional needs. The counselors are assigned by grades and stay with their students throughout their time at AMS. Mr. Chalk has been
Posted by a parent on 8/30/2025This school is horrible. There are a lot of things to do and stuff that is nice, but I am failing classes because of teachers not teaching and them not being able to manage a class. They often yell at us for no reason and get angry for us not remembering stuff when they never explained it. The guida

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAll three of my children attended AES and absolutely loved it! The teachers and staff are so dedicated and genuinely care about the students even after graduation! My only complaint is the drop and pick up congestion. I wish the parents cared more about following the rules and not parking in front of the no parking zones in front of the library. It inhibits cars from pulling into the car rider pick up line and buses pulling in. Also parents park, then walk their child across the street making it dangerous to pull out. Why not just use the car rider loop?Parent Review1y ago - Catonsville Elementary School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe administrator went out of her way to ensure my very apprehensive kindergarten child was able to be escorted to class each day at the beginning of the school year. The team of teachers made sure to keep me abreast of his day and social interactions.Parent Review3y ago - Relay Elementary School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIt was a pleasure to have my daughter at this school! The diversity, inclusion of children with different learning needs, and overall school culture was phenomenal. I appreciate the entire staff for the heart they put into Relay on a daily basis. My son will be there in two years and I’m excited to have him go through Relay.Parent Review1y ago - Mount Providence Child Development Center

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI cannot say enough good things about this center! When someone first told me about it 4 years ago, they said it was like an extended family. Now, almost four years later, I can say this is so true! I have had three kids enrolled over the past few years and my oldest stayed to join in the kindergarten program. He has thrived in that program and was reading just a few months into the school year! They have a great curriculum and structure in the classroom. We have had a kid enrolled in every one of the classrooms at this point and all of my kids love it and each of the teachers in the classrooms from the infant room to the kindergarten room are amazing! We have been so happy with the care. It is their home away from home!Parent Review2y ago - Ascension Parish School
