#23 Best Private High Schools in Maryland
Parent: This a great school. The faculty and administration care so much about the boys. In this time of pandemic distance learning, the efforts the teachers go to to stay connected to the kids is outstanding. I know the boys miss being there with their "brothers" and teachers, but we feel the school is doing everything they can to keep the students engaged, enriched and safe. We highly recommend it. A true sense of brotherhood there!

#15 Best Public High Schools in Maryland
Senior: Applying and going to Eastern Technical High School has been one of the best experiences of my life. This school is competitive but also is full of people willing to help others if they needed it. The teachers there genuinely care about their students and creating bonds with them may have been one of the easiest things to do at that school! My fellow students have taught me how to open my mind to different opinions and ways of thinking. The only thing I would change about Eastern Tech is the reputation. Many people outside of Eastern view it as a hard school, but it's only hard if you don't put in any effort. The teachers there set you up for success, you just have to work for it!

Dulaney High School

#20 Best Public High Schools in Maryland
Sophomore: Dulaney is what you make of it. There is so many classes here that when scheduling comes you have no clue what to take because you want to take so many at once! In addition, Dulaney has one of the biggest variety of AP’s (30+) in the state of Maryland. These AP’s are not a walk in the park; they are challenging, but we have some of the best AP teachers that it is manageable. Also, when kids go off to college they are going to very good schools, including ivys. There is also an endless amount of clubs you can participate in. If you’re looking for a school with good athletics, this is definitely for you. Even though our football team isn’t the best, our basketball and lacrosse teams are amazing! The thing I love most about Dulaney is how you can be yourself. You are never judged here. Everyone is so chill you can wear whatever you want. Yes, there are downs like the contaminated water, mice, and mold, but when you’re here you just laugh at it and make the most of it.

#38 Best Private High Schools in Maryland
Senior: My four years at Calvert Hall was amazing. Academically, the school challenges you, but the faculty and teachers are always ready to help assist you with any problems you may have. In addition, the school helps you become prepared for college by giving you a college counselor to help you apply to college as well as a college-like schedule which helps you to plan your day similar to how a person attending a university would. In addition, the wide variety of clubs, activities, and sports means that everyone will find an extracurricular activity, like Robotics or Competitive Marching Band, that they appreciate. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Calvert Hall and would do it again if given the opportunity.

#21 Best Public High Schools in Maryland
Alum: GWCCAT was an amazing experience for me. The atmosphere is incredibly friendly and accepting of all students from every background imaginable. I appreciated the support system that the Prime teachers provided for the students and I thoroughly enjoyed the Literary Arts program. I would have liked to see more courses/seminars provided for students to aid them in their college application process, however. I am aware now that other schools had an SAT course that aided students in their college process, but I do not recall Carver having something like this. Also, I would have liked if the academic advisors provided more information about scholarships for students in need. All together, Carver was a great experience for me and I recommend for everyone to apply!

#23 Best Public High Schools in Maryland
Alum: Towson High School offers numerous AP classes taught by excellent teachers that challenged and prepared me for college. I liked how most teachers are approachable and friendly. This allowed the school environment to be more casual and fun. I also saw that most of my fellow students are responsible and self-disciplined. They healthily balance their studies and social lives. Also, the school's theatrical productions are a must see! There are many talented singers in this school! There are many clubs to pick from and to meet new people. Overall, Towson High is an excellent school for those who want to be surrounded by a positive environment while being pushed academically to be ready for their college life.

Sophomore: So far so good! Though it has no music major, I would have loved a band and orchestra instead of only guitar and piano. Either way, nice rigorous courses, very smart students, and very helpful teachers.

#182 Best Public Elementary Schools in Maryland
Parent: I have a 4th grader and a 2nd grader at Hampton and we love the school! Mrs. Kaiser has been the principle there for 14 years and commands respect while being loved by the children! A truly rare find anymore in schools! Hampton also just finished up a 19 million dollar renovation giving the school a wonderful feel with a bright library, a tv studio for the 5th graders with a green screen!!, Promethean Boards (interactive white boards) and speakers in the ceilings have the teachers very excited to teach. Hampton is overall a wonderful learning environment with a great leader picking great teachers!

#56 Best Public Middle Schools in Maryland
Middle School Student: I'm a sixth grader at Ridgely Middle School. It's an amazing school! I love it here at RMS. There is no bullying, the teachers are so nice, and I've made so many new friends. I have learned so much and the curriculum is great. The new grading policy is confusing though. The only bad thing I have to say is that the hallways are too narrowing and are always crowded. I would recommend this school to anyone.

Middle School Student: I attend this school so I know firsthand that this is an amazing school. My brother went here and got into his first choice college, to. It's not as diverse as I would like it to be, but it's way more diverse than many schools. The teachers are amazing and there are many sports that you can play, such as track, cross country, football, soccer, lacrosse, basketball, baseball, etc.

Alum: It is not like public schools, it is a fairly small demographic. my graduating class was of 45 students, but just because it was small does not mean I was not prepared for college. the small class size has aided many of us to learn properly. Because it was a S.T.E.M school it has trained us in defrent useful fields. I learned all branches of engineering from civil to electric and though engeneering is not my Major i still retain the knowledge learned. Thanks to this school many of my classmates were certified in CIsco and are now working for major companies since graduating.

Beth Tfiloh Dahan Community School
Private School
Baltimore, MD
PK, K-12
85 reviews
Senior: As a child, my parents always knew they wanted to raise me to be a good Jew, and be involved in the Jewish community as well as receive a good education. This is exactly what Beth Tfiloh has done for me. I’ve attended Beth Tfiloh since I was 2 years old, and am now a high school senior. My experience at Beth Tfiloh shaped me into who I am today. I’ve learned to be confident, kind, and above all, show respect to everyone around me. The teachers at Beth Tfiloh are extremely helpful, always willing to meet with me and explain something I may not have understood, or even just to chat. Also, I enjoy the dual curriculum. Everyday I come to school knowing that I will not only learn about U.S history, but I will learn my Jewish history and my Jewish values. We have so many great opportunities here such as various clubs and after school sports as well. Without Beth Tfiloh, I don’t know where I would be. I am so thankful and hope to send my own children to Beth Tfiloh when the time comes.

K12 Private Academy
Online School
Herndon, VA

Senior: When I first enrolled into K12 International Academy, I was beyond overwhelmed by the amount of work, lack of direct teaching and by the online cirriculum. However, it wasn't until my second semester in K12 that I really began to enjoy the school. K12 Int. Academy is difficult, but, it taught me to prioritize school, implement healthy study habits, and prepared me for pre-med courses because I would spend over 10-12 hours studying in one day. I took very difficult courses (all AP classes) but, teachers are helpful if you reach out and if you follow the calendar, you will be golden! Good luck!
