I do not understand this rating score of a 3. I am moving and looking at new schools and would never send my child to a '3' school. However, my daughter has been at Charles Barrett since 2nd grade and it is a wonderful school! The teachers and other staff are amazing. My daughter has struggled through each grade and every teacher has been very involved in finding out what works for her. The parent involvement is outstanding and everyone knows everyone. There arent' any safety issues and it is a small school which I love!! I only wish my son would be able to attend Charles Barrett, we will truly miss everyone!

This is our first year at this school and my daughter just loves it. As her parents we are also very happy with all the teachers and staff. The students are also lovely, well mannered children. We have nothing but positive things to say about this school. We love that it's small and so hands on. Any family would be lucky to be a part of this community. I can definitely tell the difference from her previous school.

We moved to Alexandria from Anne Arundel County when my children were in 2nd and 3rd grades. Luckily my children ended up going to Charles Barrett. I can not say enough good things regarding this school. The staff of this tiny school care so deeply about each and every one of the children that walk through those doors. The children in turn love the staff and come to school wanting to learn. I was so impressed that Mrs. Lawson takes the time to learn each child by name on sight. The education that my children received at Charles Barrett was so wonderful that it helped prepare them very well for middle school. One of my children is a special education student and the support that she received the years she was here was outstanding. They helped her so much. Thank you Charles Barrett!
