West Potomac High School

We have been thrilled with Belle View Elementary for our daughter. We are a military family and moved to the area as she was beginning second grade. She made friends quickly and has always been supported well by staff and teachers. Now in third grade she has had the opportunity to be part of advanced academics, student council, and other school programs. We have loved the family engagement and the activities run by the PTA as well as the school. I feel that the school is very safe, the staff are incredibly warm, and my daughter is honestly thriving.

This school is a gem. Small class size and great leadership. There are opportunities to be involved. It a nice neighborhood school. I would recommend it. The principal is wonderful and she cares about people and all the kids in the school and she knows everyone by name.

I felt like I was racially profiled there. Especially by the front office.

We have had a great experience at HMES, and would highly recommend parents giving it a chance This is a hidden treasure among the FFX county schools.

We feel the school is part of our family. It is a happy place to be and my students enjoy learning.

The teachers and administrators here care about the students! The school is on the small side but it’s in really good shape and well maintained.

Hello. Some of you that may be reading this may know who I am. I and my family desired to make a big change and to leave mid 7th grade. I am now a freshman at another school and couldn’t be happier. The support and specifically the administration is horrible, and has made my life so much harder than is needs to be. I’m so glad to be away from it all, and be independent. I was also reprimanded as being too boyish for sitting and playing certain things at recess. I was in the office everyday, and got reprimanded for little things constantly. Not a great school.

We have been at Browne academy for the past 4 years. It has been nothing short of amazing. Our son has grown and thrived in a supportive and challenging environment. He gets special support a few times a week in their guided study program and it has been a game changer for him. It’s helped him with executive function and how he learns best. The teachers are all very committed and the parents are warm and welcoming.
