Posted by a parent on 2/3/2026What a wonderful place! We found ECS at just the perfect time for our family and we absolutely loved it for the four years we were in the area. Our kids learned so much, and I daresay, more than their public school peers. The small class sizes allow for more individual attention whether that means t
Posted by a parent on 1/8/2026We have 2 children attending Engleside School for the last 5 years. All I can say is the best school I could ever have picked for my kids. From the Secretary to all the teachers to Mr. Paddock the principal, it's been an incredible 5 years and every morning when I drop off my 5-year-old and my 11-ye

The staff is caring and go above and beyond to help out students and parents. I would recommend Hayfield to anyone.Parent Review4y ago - Hybla Valley Elementary School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI went to Riverside for 2 years and it was very nice. All the teachers were amazing and it was a nice environment. We are a bit underfunded and it shows, but there is a lot of good at this school. However, I have heard that this year there has been an increase in behavioral issues. I can only speak from my personal experiences but I did really enjoy this schoolOther Review1mo ago - Washington Mill Elementary School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe Principals and Leading Staff are incredibly respectful, sensitive, responsive and focused. Be their example the entire school has established a culture of learning and respect.This school has a unique diversity of income, ethnicity, languages which the school embraces and uses as a strength. The parents and families who can contribute or volunteer often do, and it benefits everyone.The building is in excellent condition on a quiet Mt Vernon street. In 2021-22 the school was completely renovated and expanded thanks to a bond which Fairfax county voters supported.Parent Review2y ago - Woodlawn Elementary School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageTeachers too soft on students, some kids who go to special classes basically get to skip the entirety of the normal class. Teachers only focus on the bad kids more then the other kids which makes the bad kids more motivated to be bad, not to mention the excessive bullying of other students, Mr Flynn (The art teacher) is the only teacher who teaches right, and treats all his students equally. Also "recess" is WAAAYYYY too short to be even considered a "recess" they also expect all students to be able to keep up and be on the same page as the teachers. Would NOT recommend ESPECIALLY if your child is younger then 7.Student Review1y ago - Woodley Hills Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe office staff at this school is abysmal. They do not check id cards unless they feel like it. They often respond to requests with, "1 minute" or "we don't do that". They bark at parents when they have questions or concerns.I just sat in the office for 15 minutes waiting for my child and they only randomly asked people at the door for an id check. This is after I once had 1 of the office workers assure me they "check them every time". They are just terrible.Parent Review6mo ago
