Halley Elementary School

My children are studying in this school and they are getting good knowledge. I am very thankful to the teachers and school staff.

So far, my child and family love this school; my child can’t wait to go to school everyday; that says a lot about the school. He also loves his teacher

I do not recommend this school for special needs children. This is my daughter’s third school in the county and we are having a horrible experience. The school makes me feel like the worse parent in the world. Constant emails and calls letting me every bad thing my child did that day. Not one good report despite not having ANY issues at her other 2 schools. It’s like if your child doesn’t fit into their cookie cutter example of a good student, they treat them like criminals. Instead of providing my daughter help they decided to isolate her and not allow her around any kids her age. The principal has threatened to suspend my child for doing things related to her autism. The principle is a nightmare! I’ve made a discrimination complaint against her with the county. I hate my child is at this school and I’m working with the region to get her moved. Otherwise legal action will be taken.

This was the best school our children went to during our time in the military. To top it off only 15 minutes from Ft. Belvoir.

Both of my kids have now attended Sangster for a few years and I could not say enough great things about the school.

I've been at this school for 7 years and now I'm in High school and the experience was okay fights were taken care of never stopped which shows the admins work which isn't all there fault but they could do better then just interviewing students and suspending kids but overall the teachers here were really nice and the school isn't all that bad.

My child had been going to this school for 4 years but he dropped out due to neglect and poor learn at this school!!!!! Students would bully my child and i told the teachers and they did nothing, they did not even care a single bit. The teachers didn't teach, they just go on their phones and give work sheets, like this is not teaching! And the food is horrible and the school is a mess, the food they serve doesn't look like food at all, and they just reuse the left over food over and over. The school has trash all over the school and doesn't even the messes. Overall don't go this school i am warning you guys!

My first grader thrived last year. The teachers, the administration and support staff all genuinely care about the kids and about their learning. Their teachers are responsive and action-oriented. There also is a very engaged PTA that plans and provides extra opportunities for learning, fun and growth. The student body is diverse which leads to shared-learning and cultural understanding. I couldn't ask for a better learning environment for my child.
