The principal (Sherri Gordon) tells parents what they want to hear but she does not actually fix problems when y
Posted by a parent on 6/25/2025I have to say that there are many skilled and dedicated teachers. However, the principal bullies teachers and is actively against inclusive curriculum supported by Montgomery County. Equally disturbing is her lack of awareness about the rights and needs of students with disabilities. She frequently
Posted by a community member on 11/13/2024It is a shame that this school gets such a low rating here based on historical test scores. My daughter has had amazing, engaged teachers over the past two years. They have done a great job of teaching the children at various levels. We are very happy here. The PTA meetings are always full, the scho
Posted by a parent on 3/27/2017This school has had a major turnaround in the last few years. The local parents are invested in making it a great place. All of my daughter's teachers have been dedicated and she has had a wonderful experience. We appreciate the opportunities for gifted and talented, as well as afterschool programs.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI went to this school for nine years from Kindergarten to 8th grade (class of 2025) and it was overall a good experience. The kids are all great, most of the teachers are good, and the environment is great. The administration and some teachers are sometimes bad, such as trying to prop open all the bathroom doors for no reason, sending me to the principal's office for writing on a whiteboard, and making me pay for a book that they damaged, but it is overall a good experience.Other Review11mo ago - St. Francis International School
