Posted by a community member on 12/29/2016My grandson attends this school for the second year, he's a 4th grader, and I absolutely hate it. He was attending Inner Harbor East Academy before it closed and I searched hi and low to find another school. Johnston Square is our zoned school so I had no choice since he needs aftercare at Living Cl
Posted by a parent on 10/19/2016We have a great staff who work very hard to give our students that best chance to succeed. We have technology such as computers and iPads in every classroom . We have great afterschool programs and clubs.
Posted by a teacher on 4/25/2015Horrible!!!!! I enrolled my son in June. They lost my paperwork 3 times before school started and on the first day said my son needed more shots based on the new process. Why wasn't that looked at in June. I transferred him on the third day and he wasn't even put in there system yet!!!

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy experience with this school was horrible. My son (lower elementary) loved being able to go to school to learn everyday, but he hated being bullied by a child twice his size in the process. There is a lack of communication between the teachers in regard to bullying that is taking place in different classrooms. If you are having an issue with something that happened in a class other than your child's homeroom class, 9 times out of 10 the homeroom teacher doesn't know about it because the other teacher didn't mention it. The learning environment was about as average as any other public school. It can be very busy at times and a bit overwhelming for a child if they're not use to making decisions for themselves about what activities to do next. I don't understand how they claim to be a school that is based on allowing children the ability to move around freely, but then the teacher complains if your child moves around more than other children. As far as bully is concerned, the students are able to get away with bullying because the principal doesn't have a clue about what is going on. Then when an issue is brought to her attention nothing is done about the matter either way. When an issue of one child doing something to another child is brought to the attention of the teachers they hold the children accountable by talking to them about how they could have handled a situation differently and what they should do in the future instead of what was done this time. They are great with communicating with parents about events such as fundraising, changes to the calendar, and other activities. In my opinion, if you're child gets accepted into a different charter school definitely choose that one.Parent Review3y ago - Community Initiatives Academy
