Spit and chewing gum holds a lot together at this school…read more They get a D in communications. Lateness, procrastination should not come from teachers nor administrators but it does. Bad scene. Too many changes each year in personnel is not a good sign, and those whom stay are no longer effective and need to retire. Beware that we found out 3 years in that the school accepts a large amount of "problem" kids which puts a huge damper on other students trying to do their best because of disruptions. The school has locally been deemed a "jock" HS due to football and other sports always in the limelight, so not so much for academics. The tuition is overpriced, not all $$ that you must give the school is listed on website, you do not get your money's worth for the amount of nonsense that goes on with both the administrators, students and teachers. Tardiness in all areas from the majority of teachers is unacceptable and translates into lackluster behaviors in students. The principal is great and I am sure he tries his best with the skeleton crew he has to work with, but he needs to step up and hire professionals that stay at the school long-term, and also have talks with some staff and teachers to dress professionally and act like adults not a kids best friend or goofy buddy! Doubt you would see such behaviors from adults in schools striving for excellence but here a $20K a year HS you will. Case in point the blonde lady from recruitment who greets you dressed like she was going to a 1990s club, not dressed appropriately nor the way to meet parents and kids. Casual and not professional at all. The face of PHS. Kids complain that it is very hot all year around in the classrooms. No air flow and old lockers, and classrooms. I surmise their heating bills are sky high and could be the major reason why the tuition prices are so high. Small class size for some classes is alright, but other times too many students crammed in a small classroom. Odd places for classes not healthy. The rate of teacher turnover is alarming. Not a good fit for students who want to learn in an environment fostering excellence. The school could be excellent if they hired excellent people and communicated very frequently with precision. The previous administration doomed the school by fostering a casual and laissez-faire approach to the manner that they ran the school for decades. The new uniforms are ugly as sin. The cafeteria food is trash because the "food" is made from the least expensive ingredients, therefore, taste and nutrition is nowhere to be found. If you can go elsewhere please do, otherwise you know the drill.

If you don't mind the administration lying to you about your child, this is the place for you. If…read moreyou don't mind the school excluding both parents from important communications about your child, this is the place for you. The most un family friendly place I've been involved with. They have no oversight either. Email the Archdiocese, they tell you this school is "independent", they can do as they please. Catch them in a lie and ask them about it, they ghost you. Great "catholic" values? Not at this school.

Our son's teacher resigned after the first week of school, but the school continued to tell us she was sick for two months. Our son came home with a letter informing us that his teacher resigned, we were informed that a substitute had been in the class along with a teacher aid. Our son was assaulted by another student stabbed in the eye with a pencil. The school failed to notify us of this incident. My husband was informed of this incident when he arrived to pick our son up from school, he was directed to the nurse's office without any explanation. The student assaulted six other children in the kindergarten class before being transferred to another class, where he continued assaulting other children. Our son came home and informed me another student took her scissors and placed them on his neck and threatened to cut his throat. I took my son to school the next day and requested a meeting with his teacher, whom didn't seem concerned nor did she have any type of plan of corrective action. My husband and I withdrew our son and enrolled him in a private school. I returned to the school to collect his supplies and belongings, the substitute teacher advised me that the teacher who resigned took all the children's school supplies when she left. I was only given one pack of pencils, and four boxes of crayons. We spent at least $60.00 on school supplies. I also noticed the kids were just coloring pictures when I was collecting my sons school supplies. Our son attended this school for two months and never came home with homework. When we would ask him how his day was, he always said he didn't do anything. We understand now why he wasn't learning anything. This is a huge disservice to our children and to the parents who trust Prince George's County Public Schools to educate our children.

I've literally seen a teacher break down crying multiple times because of how out of control the students were. If the job is too much, maybe it's time to consider a different career, maybe burger king or something. A lot of students openly use drugs and get away with it. If you don't want your child exposed to that kind of environment, I strongly recommend not sending them here. I've seen kids who I never thought would get involved in that stuff not only start using but even begin selling. The only things that helped me get through were having good friends, keeping my grades up, getting support from the few teachers who actually cared about their students, and staying out of drama.
