Smithsburg Middle School

Old Forge is the perfect elementary school set in a beautiful, clean rural setting, with expansive fields and mountain views surrounding its campus. It is a smaller school, but well maintained, allowing for a better learning environment and more attention for each student’s educational and personal needs. After spending six years there, I am so glad that I was able to have my elementary experience at Old Forge. It is difficult to summarize my experience there, however I cannot emphasize enough what a privilege it was to attend such a special school. We even moved to the school district for it.

If you agree that children as young as age 6 should be put in a straight jacket/restraint, dragged down the hall screaming youre hurting me over and over (trying to free themselves of this hurtfulness) because crying of missing their parent was disturbing to class...then this school might be for you and your child/children. parent witnessing this dragging of child. Bruises to arms, scratches to face and the lengthy recover time for this child of what school can mean mentally and physically if you feel sad emotions not dealt with properly. Parents and Childrens rights??? Apparently this is allowed in our childrens schools. Child removed from school and doing wonderful in private program where love, kindness and trust are #1. Best of luck too all...I truly pray this never happens to any child.
