Roland Park K-8 School

Also, seems alot of the reviews in favor of the school are before the school went IB this year.

Roland Park in my opinion is a very nurturing school. It has helped my child build self-esteem and the teachers, staff and aides are wonderful!

Roland Park in my opinion, is the best school in hillsborouh county. The teacher and staff are wonderful. Most importantly they care about the future of each and ever student. What I like most is that they work hard with our children with problems and without problems.

I am truly disatisfied with they way they handles problems to their interaction with parents. My daughter is in all advanced classes and they are way over booked. She is bored in class and very rarely has homework. They have planners but the teachers never follow through from beginning to end with them. They lack correspondence with us as parents as well. There are many issues with staffing as well as transportation to school. I am very dissatisfied with our experience at this school.

This school is one of the best schools ever. My kids never want to leave and always are looking forward to coming back. This school changes them and they learn on there own how to defend themselves.

The school has been nothing than amazing to my daughter! They saw her abilities and put her where she belonged in advanced classes. The teachers are wonderful and communicate at all angels. The one thing they lack is extra activities for the kids but the academics really makes up for this! I am pleased with the outcome of a very hard move across counties for us, they made a wonderful experience for us and made me feel at ease to know that my daughter was in great hands during her school hours!

This is a great school. Teachers are wonderful and truly love to teach. Parental involvment is ok - good in the lower grades but declines as the kids get older. Staff/Administration is very involved and helpful.

The teachers are to be commended for their work at this school. It is a K-8 school where music, art, sports & other extracurricular activities are promoted. The location is nice since Jefferson H.S. is on the same grounds. A child need never leave the grounds from Kindergarten through high school. More parent involvement is needed. Only .7% of parents registered with the PTA this year. The PTA is actively seeking out parents & ways to attract them.

Not a bad school, but can use some improvements. Westshore Alliance Program is not as cracked up as they'd like to show. There are discipline problems. Can be tough on the younger kids because it is a K-8 school, and there are many big/loud kids. Administration is friendly.
