Baltimore Highlands Elementary School

The current principal is in no way qualified to oversee any child who struggles with a learning disability. There are numerous instances of open discrimination, deprivation of valuable classroom time, zero accountability, and consistent victim blaming. There is an outright refusal to acknowledge the adults in the school set the tone for kids who simply learn differently, instead choosing to engage in a years long power struggle over the need to be right, rather than the need to advocate for all children and their right to a fair and equitable educational experience. I have 2 other children enrolled who do not have those challenges and they have, thus far, had a good experience there.

I cannot say enough good things about OES! The teachers and staff from the front desk to the custodians are amazing! My son is in Kindergarten and I was hesitant to send him to public school as I am a product of private schools. We sent our son to a local catholic school for PreK and my son has some challenges (ADHD) and that school was unwilling and honestly ill equipped to provide him the support he needs to thrive in his learning environment. Overlook is the exact opposite. The student success coach and teacher were in contact with me before classes even started in the fall and we were able to get him a 504 plan in place before Christmas break. My son is thriving there and I couldn't be happier. I wish more families would get involved in the PTA but other than that we are having an amazing time at OES! Thank you all for everything you do for our kiddos!

Lakeland is a great school. They have a diverse staff, older experienced teachers and new teachers full of energy. Most of the teachers are very nice. They go the extra mile for the students. The teachers are creative. My children like going to school every day. My son participates in sports and the afterschool program. My daughter does the afterschool program and arts in school. The school has a great partnership with different programs in the community. My children can walk to the park, sports fields and clubs afterschool and on the weekends. I feel safe sending my children to Lakeland.

Morrell Park is good school. The teachers care about the students. The principal encourages parents. They have many different activities for the students to choose from. The space around the school is a little dirty.

this school is fun the teachers are very helpful

My daughters have had great teachers. They like joining on different activities that the school does.It is very appreciated and I’m thankful that the school is very thoughtful of having both english and Spanish translations for announcements. It shows they care about letting parents know what’s happening and think about those that may not know English.
