We have all of our kids at Horace Mann the last four years. It is exceptional and on par/better than most elite private schools in the area. Truly great!

My daughter and I loved this school since pre-K. Teachers are in general good and the management rocks! There is a second teacher in each classroom which make a huge difference because the ratio teacher:kids is really low.

Very Good. Extremely concerned with the double digit disparity (Gap)in the Math achievement levels for Whites v. Blacks et al.
This needs to be fixed.
Also I would like to see gender comparisons for all educational metrics.

I initially enjoyed this school for my children, however, if your child is advanced then this may not be the school for you. The teachers are good for the most part, but have difficulty relating to the children of different cultures, especially minorities. They attempt to combat this through the idea of culture clubs which is designed more for families from a different country. Their variance of minorities teachers is limited to 2 teachers in the entire school. The principal has a good heart and very kind, but the curriculum was not rigorous enough to challenge my children and thus I am a former parent. Very expensive before & after care options, but my kids loved it! Definitely one of the best schools in the DC area.

Wonderful school with great staff. I wish everyone could go to a school like this. The world would be a happier and more educated place.

Mann is a warm, small community oriented school whose principal is worth her weight in gold!
