The staff is excellent at handling bullying of the students it is not allowed in anyway at any time and the rules will be enforced and taken very seriously.

If your child has any type of learning difficulty the school will take action to make sure their learning is comfortable and they will feel successful, all the parents have to do is reach out and let them know what is needed.

The students are taught leadership in a way that all student would understand students must be reminded on a daily basis for it to be enforced and followed up with the parents as they play a major part to their child's success..

The teachers implement structure and respect for all students on a daily basis but it is up to the parents to do their part as well.

The staff are wonderful they will help you in anyway that they can. The kids that attend this school is another story all together. The staff really tries to do the best that they can, I am glad that they have added security it much very much needed. I would recommend the school to the community. The principle is excellent quick on her feet reminds me of Michele Obama. Great school but needs less drama from the students.

Suitland Elementary. I moved here from PA where the schools just push your children along in the summer I stress my child learning difficulties and my concerns. They put my child with a teacher who could help identifiy my childs issues. Now my son gets tutoring twice a week and progress reports every 2 months. I love this school they work with parents as long as you work with them
