Patterson Park Public Charter School

Been 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.

My 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.

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 friendly professional relationship in the building. Most students are willing and eager to learn, and I've enjoyed being a part of this community. I feel supported and while there will always be some difficulties, I wouldn't trade it for anything.

My child had too many Awful experiences at this school. I had to get my child transferred. The administration is weak and let's the students do whatever they want.

The staff are incredibly friendly and work hard to ensure the needs of students and families are met. Systemic policies often interfere with early interventions initiated by classroom teachers.
