The Greenmount School

I'm a first year parent here with a kindergartner. The person in charge of enrollment provided me with incorrect directions that conflicted with the directions from the district. 504 coordinator is difficult to collaborate with due to her misinterpretation of federal law and she essentially will not led any other staff member or parent have a say in the process. She also appears to have outdated and somewhat ableist ideas about neurodivergence. She also provided a plan with someone else's signature on it from a previous year. As a fellow social worker,I was disappointed in her ethics.Principal seems MIA. I've never seen her on campus. If you contact her,she immediately hands you off to ineffective staff.Parents seem very active but in a social way that means a lot of events and constant fundraisers. I'm not sure where the proceeds go. The school looks worn down and the library selections can be inappropriate. Kindergarteners are taught in a way that does not seem age appropriate. According to my child, the teacher yells. My child dreads going to school which is weird for a kindergartner,in my opinion.

I cannot recommend Margaret Brent highly enough. The teachers are wonderful, the principal is intelligent, creative and involved, and the school is small with a huge community supporting it. Being at Margaret Brent truly feels like being a part of a family. Our kids have learned so much and are well beyond national averages in terms of their test scores. I very much doubt the accuracy of the data presented for MB.

the school Is really a nice school the students and teachers support each other in hard times I really liked it.
