This is one of the best schools I have ever been a part of. The teachers care about their students and the students seem to genuinely like learning in their classes.

This is the worse staff as far as teachers I have ever dealt with....on my son second week of school they wouldn't let him go to the restroom and my 8 year old used the restroom on himself and was scared of staff

My son who is in 2nd grade did homework till 10 or 11 pm at night. Sometimes I had to finish work. They gave too much everyday

This school just screams and yells at the children including the principal and all the staff. This school truly brings down children self esteem and not to mention the are dishonest with the homework system trying to fail first and second graders absolutely riduculous.

This school received one star which is too high of a score. This is the worst school for my 2nd grader to go to. The teachers and staff are terrible. My son went through life changing situations at this school. Please don't send your child to this school or you are going to seriously regret it.

My grandchildren attend Calverton Elementary in Beltsville, MD. Having recently moved to PG County from Montgomery County which has a reputation for good schools, I was very skeptical regarding the education my grandchildren would receive. Since August, I have had the opportunity to view this particular school on a daily bases. I pick my grandchildren up every day. I am happy to report that the teachers are exceptional. They care about our children and their education. Being an educator, I see how leaders are being developed in this school. Kudos to the staff!!!! Keep up the good work. This is one PG County school I have no reservations about!!!!!!!

I scored Calverton low, not due to the teachers, but for the Administration. The Principal has an agenda that excludes parental involvement. The PTA is weak/nonexistent. Her style also causes the Teachers, who are great and visibly care for the students, to limit their time to school hours only. They cannot get out of the school sooner. The Principal actively avoids eye contact with parents. The only point I would give the principal is she knows our child's name but due to her management style I am concerned WHY she knows my child name because my child is not a disciplinary problem. If you are parent who wants to participate in the community building process at your child's school, Calverton is not for you. Please do your research before selecting this school. I no longer like walking into Calverton and our family is considering moving to escape Calverton Elementary and the Principal's homeless/FARM mentality of the community.
