Linthicum Elementary School

This school has no structure, you're child will dislike going school and the bullying is terrible.

This school is no good the teachers are from Brooklyn so how good is that , my daughter went to summer school and the bus dropped her off in a neighborhood she is not from and a stranger picked her up ! The front desk none of the incompetent people there know there job ! At all

Our family has been part of the St. Philip Neri community since 2017, and it breaks my heart to say that the school I once loved is no longer the school my child attends today. While SPN was a wonderful, vibrant environment for years, the quality of the experience has gone downhill significantly since the pandemic. We have seen a steady erosion of student life as the school has eliminated key programs like the Student Council and Safeties, leaving students with fewer ways to grow and lead.The most frustrating shift, however, is the lack of fresh leadership and the growing culture of favoritism. The Home School Association (HSA) has essentially remained the same since 2018, with the same individuals holding office for years without giving new parents a fair chance to run or contribute. Without term limits, the HSA has become a closed circle rather than an inclusive community. This "inner circle" culture extends to the students as well. This year, the school quietly ended the National Junior Honor Society (NJHS) without notifying parents of current members. Consequently, instead of allowing merit-based NJHS students to represent the school at the annual Advocacy Day in Annapolis, participants were hand-selected based on personal preference.It is deeply disappointing to see tuition prices rise every single year while the quality of the education and the fairness of the environment decline. If you are looking for a school that prioritizes transparency, merit, and an inclusive community for all families, I would strongly suggest looking elsewhere.
