Please give your opinion- we are considering public and private. Public is Rosemary Hills. Thanks in advance.

MIne has 21 and I was surprised. I expected it to be closer to 25 so I was happy. Does that school feed into BCC?

ours has 26 and we are on the high side for the county. I would prefer around 20.

17 students, 1 teacher, 1 aid Maryland focus school with a couple children in class that need extra help (one is my child)
But all the K have 16-17 students per class.

Rosemary hills will usually tend towards the high side because each grade is big but it's a great school.

One of the many reasons we opted for private over RH was because of the teacher:student ratio. The year we looked it was 27 kids per classs with 1 teacher.

Hi, I am considering moving into the RH district and it is too late to apply for private school. Parents at RH, do you love the school? I am between a home in Burning Tree and RH/Ch Ch. Thank you!!
