My daughter loves her school. She was formally in private school but would constantly be picked on because of her race and ethnicity. This school has allowed her to feel welcomed and embrace her real identity. She enjoys her teachers and says its not as bad as people paint this school to be. If you
Posted by a parent on 1/3/2026Most schools are suffering with bullying but something is definitely wrong at Western Heights when kids are saying that the staff are laughing or mocking the kids that are getting bullied.or implementing harsher punishment on the kids that are getting bullied to cover up bad kids that are on athleti
Posted by a parent on 12/5/2025Well, we did not even finish out the first week of school and my daughter has already been threatened by a group of boys to get jumped. They went to a teacher and the teachers response is that they are attention seeking. Clearly this school does not prioritize the safety of our young girls. I'm not

Posted by a student on 5/17/2025This place is awful, dare I say hell on earth. Many students are bullied and harassed daily, and the school does nothing. Fights happen daily, and the school does nothing. Students have a 504 or IO3 plan? It isn’t followed half the time. This place does not care for the students and does nothing to

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI wish we had gone through reviews for this school before enrolling our kids. Most of their 5 star reviews are from the teachers. Those really should not count towards student or parent experience.Same as on their Facebook page. Those reviews should be limited to say glass door as work reviews. The teachers are okay but the administration is highly lacking even in simple follow through. If you have the option do not enroll your child here.Parent Review7y ago - Pangborn Elementary School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy kids both attended Potomac Heights and I found it to be a really good elementary school with a small number of students per grade, low teacher to student ratio and a great community of parents and teachers. On the rare occasion when a problem did pop up, I found teachers and staff to be helpful, responsive and concerned. In short, I recommend it.Parent Review4y ago - Salem Avenue Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSt. Mary’s is a second home to my children. They both love attending school. The teachers and administrators are very special, and genuinely want all kids attending this school to be successful and happy . This far selecting this school for my children’s private education has been the best decision.Parent Review6mo ago - Truth Christian Academy
