I’d agree with Matsunaga ES, along with Brown Station ES. Maybe even Sally Ride ES or Wilson Wims ES.

Having taken that survey, it's very difficult to convey what is a school problem and what is systematic or countywide. That being said....

Administrators do not care. They will find every reason to say why some number looked down and intimidate teachers into answering nicely because "it affects our MSDE school report card rating." Those numbers are very public and atrocious in some cases. The miserable principals who create toxic environments truly believe they can do know wrong and a bad survey is something else's fault

And it’s more reliable and trustable than the student survey.

Wilson Wims and friends of mine are happy at Bayard Rustin.

Lol, didn’t like 10 seniors from Rockville last year get arrested all year round? One of the recent graduates at Rockville got charged with a firearm arrest just a month ago.

+ also I can see Kennedy but that doesn’t make things better because both clusters serve Aspen Hill. And Aspen Hill is great from what I’ve heard especially the elementary schools there. It’s really just the progress with the middle schools and high schools there.

Conflict of interest. Drain the Central Office. I think it's a warehouse of disgraced admin who failed upward.

Yes, but it's also historically and consistently been the top high school in the entire state.

Agreed. The most terrible principal I’ve ever had was promoted to central office - I believe, because supervisors knew they were toxic to schools. They’re still there btw.

Don't make statements that you can't back up with proof.

6 actually, and 5 of them were C/O 2024.
