Harford Hills Elementary School Reviews

 
I have several issues with this school. My family comes from another county where the school was stellar when it came to parent involvement. And Harford Hills makes me wish I'd never left the other school. You truly get a sense of 'us against them' at this school. I've had to fight for several issues to be resolved in the past few years and I dont see it changing anytime soon. I've heard several complaints, as well as had my own bad experiences, from the school's secretary. She seems very eager to get you off the phone and doesn't seem interested in assisting you with much of anything. It's unfortunate that this problem exists in what is supposed to be a 'top school'.

After 5 years, Harford Hills elementary has been a great disappoint for our family. This school and administration has created a reputation within our community of being anti-parent and having very low academic standards. MSA scores are the lowest in this area! Faculty transfers out of the school. As parents, we learn of safety occurrences from our children, not from communications sent home from school. Parents are not welcomed at the school. The more involved you are, the more likely you are to leave. Within 5 years, dozens of families have pulled their kids and have moved or are sending them to local private schools. Thus, creating a major 'brain and financial drain' in the school. The New administration has its work cut out for them. Restoring the community's faith in Harford Hills elementary is going to be tough. It can be done if parents are part of solution!

I have two children at the school and am very happy. The teachers have been attentive and caring and the administration has always been responsive. The principal is a star.

Harford Hills like many schools in Balt Co is having a discipline crisis. Staff is unwilling or unable to do anything. Classroom instruction is suffering and the general morale in the school is suffering. As a parent who volunteers more than once a week I see the quality of our children's education deteriorating. Parents struggle to fill the void but its a loosing battle as they must battle an unresponsive principal as well. The few parents who are able dedicate time to volunteering are slowly being pushed away. It is a sad place.

Teachers are energetic, very approachable. The principal puts the kids first, truly cares about their education.

Everybody from the Principal, Office Personal and the Teachers are great.
