This is a 4 stars school, the Principle/teachers have been embarked a long journey to build this school to where is now. The principle promote values, emphasize on well being, health, and education of the children. She is very easy to communicate with, and she is very good in keeping parents inform in what is going on at the school. All teachers completed additional certification to teach I believed. Teachers encourage students to shared ideas, team work, greating good environment in and outside the classroom. For personal experience with all my kids went to this school I believed it is the HIDDEN JEWELS in Baltimore County Elementary School System. The school was one of two schools in Maryland to be named a National Title I distinguished School in 2011, for that it isspeak volume, how good this school is.

I'm a graduate from Milbrook Elementary now in &th grade at Pikesville Middle and i loved this school. Everything about it was so wonderful the attention that the teachers gave the students the teachers themselves and the after school program that comes with it. I enjoyed every year while i was there and when my school closes and 2:30pm i vistit Milbrook from time to time to see the teachers and principals. Speaking of the principal I loved her she was so nice and kind but due my busy life i hav forgotten her name sorry (T_T) anyway trust me parents this is a wonderful school.
