I'm a teacher at Highlandtown 237, and I find that working here is a positive and rewarding experience. The teachers are excellent, and that's a testament to the hiring ability of the administration. School leaders are very open and honest with the staff, and there is a genuine sense of caring and a
Posted by a teacher on 9/3/2020This school is located in our neighborhood and our neighborhood is affected by people in charge of the school. On several occasions we tried to reach out to principal Denise Ashley so that the staff of the school can be a bit sensitive to our environment and have respect to people living around. so
Posted by a community member on 4/16/2015This school consistently underperforms. I've heard rumors about the principal and her background. Fue ella una maestra de un abogado? She is very caring and loves the kids, but I don't think she has any vision. In the past 3 yrs, the school has dramatically gone downhill.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBeen here for 10 years and I can’t complain, some teachers used to get on my nerves but I knew they was just doing that so I could get to the school I’m going to next year (Poly). We have a great band that’s been going strong for years, and this is coming from someone that is in it. Amazing clubs and sports teams. Overall a great school.Student Review2y ago - Wolfe Street Academy

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWolfe Street Academy has been an excellent experience for our two children in 2016/17. Mr Gaither's active and hands-on leadership is very inspiring to students & parents alike. Ms Gross (3rd) & Ms Bucke (3rd) are amazing teachers who keep tabs on student's academic progress & wholesome development. The admin & support staff are welcoming and always helpful. There is an excellent (free) after school program. The kids are well behaved & friendly.The school does not have dedicated sports facilities but Mr Mavis makes good use of the multi-use hall for indoor sessions and the nearby Patterson Park is used for outdoor sports.It is unfortunate the hard-work of this great team is not reflected in the Test Scores due to the demographics of Fells Point, many of the students are from families that do not speak English as a first language.Parent Review7y ago - Hampstead Hill Academy

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy son was bullied, traumatized and physically abused at this school, and several teachers knew about everything he was put through and just turned a blind eye, and at one point even purposefully brushed an attack on my son under the rug and wasn't even going to call me and tell me. My son was verbally abused and threatened on a regular basis and at one point I finally had to call the police and file a report and remove my son from the school.Teachers are lazy, complacent, and just plain BAD at their jobs. Do not send your child to this school.Parent Review3y ago - John Ruhrah Elementary School
