Gwynns Falls Elementary School Reviews

 
I would strongly agree with the other parent.I have three children that attends the Fantastic Gwynns Falls Elementary School and i was impressed day one.The hallways are extremely quiet.The teachers are dedicated to teaching and forming bonds with all of their students.The principle and vice principle are both strong leaders, who care for the well being of the teachers and the students.This school also welcomes parent input and has a strong Pto. I would recommend this school to anyone in the area.

My son started Gwynns Falls last year 2nd quarter and had a rough start. Mrs. Johnson (principal) worked with him and never gave up even when he just wouldn't listen and had to spend some time in her office. This year my son is in Mrs. Lorenz 3rd grade class and I couldn't believe how much Mrs. Lorenz cares. My son is trying to lose or maintain his weight, every Wednesday my son goes to school and tells Mrs. Lorenz about his weight lost. Mrs. Lorenz is always excited and encourages him to continue the good work. Mrs. Lorenz even said something about joining him in his weight lost. : ) Mrs. Lorenz has even asked about which foods he can have and which ones to stay away from ( candy, cookies etc.), so when she gives out treats he will still have something. I am just impressed at how caring Mrs. Lorenz and Mrs. Johnson are. They always make time for you and always try their best to help. I am so thankful for both of them. I believe Gwynns Falls Elementary is one of Baltimore best schools. Due to the excellent teachers and other staff my son is having a great year. Also Mrs. Johnson is very observant she notice that this year my son was wearing glasses and she always complements him on how nice and smart he looks : ) I feel this makes him feel good and want to do better.

I am proud to say that I am a graduate of this school I graduated Gwynns Falls in 1994. I am now 25 yrs old. I am honored to have this school still standing so that my daughter could attend. She is now going to the kindergarten. She graduated from Pre-k in June of 2008 from Mrs. Taylor/Ms. Queens class and she loved it. I never seen a 5 year old so happy to attend school. Its the summertime and she can't wait to go back. I volunteer occasionally and as the other parents say the staff is great they treat the kids as if they were their own. They have one on one care with the students and they give respect and receive it back it is truly a family in Gwynns Falls. Rachael Smith, parent and former student

My granddaughter has attended Gwynns Falls since he was in K. Her will be attending the 2nd grade this fall. Her first teacher was Ms. Moon and her 1st grade teacher was Ms. Holloway. Both teachers were exceptional in helping my granddaughter increase her reading. She struggled in K but soared in 1st grade. Gwynns Falls is more like a private academy and the staff is great.

I am the parent of a first grader in Ms. Catlett class and my son attended from 3-5.This is my daughter's second year in the first grade. I love the school because they were able to help our family learn of her struggle in school. One word to describe Gywnns Falls for me is FAMILY! The school environment is warm and loving. They take the time to know the whole child and their families. The principal makes it her business to know each and every child. Kids are not belittled in this school they are praised when needed and listened too when they are having a little trouble and are offered advice on how to deal with whatever trouble they are having. If you are looking for a school that has your child's best interest at heart, safe environment then you would want this school on your team.

I am the parent of a Pre-K student. She is in Mrs. Bennett's class. I think my child is learning well and her teachers are wonderful.

My son is a fifth grader at this school.He has attended since 2nd grade. He is also hearing impaired. My husband and myself were really impressed with the quiet hallways and the instruction going on in the classrooms. You could hear a pin drop. This is due to the leadership and learning incentives at this school. My son has been on the honor roll since day one. He has grown mentally, socially, and of course physically since his attending Gywnn falls. It has been a great experience for our whole family. I would recommend this school to any child that has strong parent involvement, because after all this is what every child and school needs!
