Incompetent office staff. Instead of helping us with transferring 3 students to another PG county school, the students were withdrawn/taken out the system. This led to the students missing two weeks from school due to the online registration process and having to call the new school and the district
Posted by a community member on 1/22/2025I love working at this school! Students are our priority. I have been in a few schools, and this school by far has a staff that is student-focused. The staff is very unified and the administration works for all stakeholder (students, parents, staff, and community)!
Posted by a parent on 4/11/2022there is no support from the staff, even the teachers do bullying on my son. i filled a bullying form just to see if they would do a better job but nothing changed, my son gets punched at school or on the bus, i bought pencils for my son and the teacher accused him of stealing the pencils from some
Posted by a parent on 5/10/2017I will never send my child to Valley View Elementary School again. There was no support from staff on helping my child who was struggling. They really dropped the ball, I had to take my child out of the school to receive a better education.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy family and I are truly honored for the opportunity to attend this school. From the moment I inquired about the late lottery acceptance, I was connected with the remarkable and kind-hearted Ms. D. Johnson. She demonstrated patience, thoroughness, and genuine care throughout the process. When I expressed uncertainty about acceptance into the lottery, Ms. Johnson reassured me of the value of the program and the excellence of its teachers. I am deeply grateful for her guidance and support. We are excited for our Pre-K3 student to begin this journey, and we look forward to a wonderful school year with the teachers and staff.Parent Review7mo ago - Barnaby Manor Elementary School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAttentive to details, alerting parents, courteous in speech and manner, prompt to get children to and from the school building, encouraging the young people, disciplined in practicing civility. Active in all activities in school. They remember every student's name and mannerism. I've never had an issue with my great-grandson while he is going there. They make learning fun, even during COVID. I wanted to learn how to do online learning too.Other Review2y ago - J. Frank Dent Elementary School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughters went to this school for 2024-25 school year and I have to say this school was 1 of the worst schools my daughters attended. Number 1 was the bus, it either never arrived or was always late. The stop finder app was so useless I just deleted it from my phone. The teachers were not very engaging with their students nor supportive. My daughter was bitten by another student in the past and neither the teacher or nurse contacted me. I had to reach out to the school to get some information as to what happened with my child. Their one excuse was it was a substitute teacher that day. They are not very communicative with their students nor parents or students. My daughters were sent home with a multitude of papers throughout the school year, when I asked them questions or information on some of the papers their response was mostly “they just handed us the papers and said give to your parents”. This school was so horrible I have been counting down the days to the last day of school so my girls can attend a better school this upcoming school year.Parent Review11mo ago - Henson Valley Montessori School
