Kindergarten was a great experience for my son and I, but when we reached 1st grade; I felt that my son was not challeneged enough. I felt like the teacher focused on just the basic fundamentals and didn't have enough time or interest to see how he can be challenged. I was not impressed with his homework. I just basically continue to challenge him at home. I felt that because he was soft spoken, extremely bright that he just shadowed around other children. Parent and teacher conference was not what I expect it to be. Very basic information and nothing really thorough. I think it lasted about 5 or 7 minnute conference. Not like our kindergarten teacher, where we felt a sincere connection with our child.

This school was fantastic. My daughter attended for 1st and 2nd grade. The teachers were excellent. The few problems we had revolved around a bully and my feelings that things should have been handled differently. The good feelings were about the quality of the teachers, the programs offered and the excellent care my daughter received while enrolled. I would be very happy for my daughter to continue in that school.

I have one child at Park Hall currently, in Kindergarten. He attended the first half of Kindergarten in a Howard County ($$$) school and truly--the curriculum as well as facilities and activities are quite comparable The staff is great--teachers are great--my son's behavior has remained great...and the mid-year transition from one school to another could not have gone smoother. In closing...my Kindergartener is reading complete books (beginner of course!), can count well into the 100s, can do light adding/subtracting, and comes home everyday with new science knowledge.
