1 review for Winston Churchill High School

  • Reviewed by Former Student on March 04, 2007
  • Rating: 5 (5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate
  • I absolutely, 100% disagree with the previous review. Clearly, the reviewer has chosen to focus on the character of the students (which is also inaccurate) rather than focusing on the academics of the school, which is what this website is all about. Winston Churchill is a blue ribbon school which illustrates the high excellence of the teachers and the curriculum. Churchill is known for having many brilliant students who excel in a variety of areas. Churchill classrooms are filled with ambitious students who look forward to a bright future. Churchill has an amazing learning disability program as well as a bridge program, helping students with mental disabilities. The theater program is known as one of the most prestigious among the many high schools in Maryland. Overall, Winston Churchill High school is a stepping stone to a bright future. Not only does the school offer an abundance of classes with highly educated teachers, it is placed in a great, safe area for kids to feel safe. I again, give the school an A+.
