| 7/23/2012 | parent | I have a 19 year old as well as a 12 and 10 year olds,who all attended Hollifield. With our youngest starting the 5th grade we know we are going to truly miss Hollifield Station Elementary School. We have been more than pleased to have been apart of the school and the community for 15 years. The current principle has taken charge with few bumps in the road. Parents and grandparents in the community need to continue to support her in her efforts to exceed expectation with outstanding academic performance. She has lead the school to tap into the vast diversity and talent of all the students and parents. I have marvelled at the advanced programs and level of detail in all performances and programs given by the students. The talent particularly at this years science fair was spectatcular. The yearly International Day makes us be thankful to live in a place where there is truly diversity at all levels. We believe our community realizes it takes a villiage to raise a child. |
| 3/25/2012 | parent | I think, this school is one the best schools of Howard County. We have extremely pleased with both the staff and the Principal. Can't ask for anything more from an Elementary School. |
| 8/25/2010 | parent | I really really love this school. The teachers are very well knowledgeable and very friendly with the kids. My daughter has been going to this school for past 3 years and she loves every moment of her school life. I think this is one of the best schools in Howard County. |
| 4/5/2010 | parent | I think this school is great! The teachers work efficiently. |
| 8/28/2009 | parent | We moved to Ellicott city to join our daughter in a good school where we don't need to worry about her Education. Our experience with the school has been well beyond our expectations. School staff members are very professional & knowledgeble and encourage kids to develop various skills in academic and non-academic areas. The teachers are very knowledgeable and dedicated to help each kid to learn the skills they need to learn. They are very prompt in responding to parents requests and queries. Curriculum planning and execution are exceptional. Teachers encourage parent s participation. Only one little thing I would like to see improvement is taking school level to next level in few years to compete with best schools in the state and county. |
| 8/2/2009 | student | Hollifield Station ES, is a great school where people are environment friendly. |
| 7/25/2009 | parent | The principal who opened the school (Mr. Heisey) put together an excellent staff and set a tone of high achievement for all students, including the large ELL population. The current principal, Mrs. Booth, is carrying on this climate of high expectations. The school is a safe and nurturing place for our kids and we thank the staff and administration. |
| 7/24/2009 | parent | Anyone parent who has a problem with this school should take a look at themselves and how poorly they may run their household. Whenever there have been issues, both the principle and the staff have been quick to respond. The teachers have very good control over the overall environment and the class sizes have gone down since the opening of new schools in the area. This is an excellent school! |
| 6/22/2009 | teacher | The staff have been amazing. The principal was excellent! i had the opportunity to intern at the school this year and am going to start working there in the fall. The students are very respectful and it is a wonderful school. |
| 12/10/2007 | parent | This is one of the best schools in Howard County. The teachers are amazing and the principal is wonderful. |
| 11/25/2007 | parent | Our experience at Hollifield was very unsatisfactory. The classroom was not well managed and our child had difficulty learning in a chaotic environment. When we voiced our concerns, the situation did not change. We would not send our child there again. |
| 2/18/2004 | parent | I love this school, though public school in many ways it acts as a private school. The staff is awesome. They have a genuine concern for each child and they work 'hand in hand' with the parents The are able to compensate children at all achievement levels in all grades. The parent and PTA involvement is enormous. The principal is very much in touch with his staff. You can clearly see the dedication and loyalty that the staff embraces they love what they are doing. The principal is thorough and is a firm believer of quality education which is a direct reflection on the staff he chooses. I have 3 children - 2 that have attended and 1 that will start kindergarden this fall. I love this school! |
