It was a great experience. My son had a wonderful teacher who would communicate with us very effectively. We attended a couple school events such as reading night and my son enjoyed that so much! Great school, great teachers, great experience : )

My son just completed 1st grade here. I was concerned about the transition from Montessori pre-school to public school, but everything was seamless. The teachers and staff are wonderful, they clearly care about the kids. The small class sizes were excellent for my son, he was challenged in areas he excelled at and provided extra support where he was struggling. The principal (new I believe 4 years ago) has done an amazing job of creating a great environment for teachers and students. I hope more parent's review Clopper Mill, I believe it has really improved from when i first moved into the area. I look forward to next year.

CMES is a fantastic school with caring, hard-working, and dedicated teachers/staff. I am proud to say that my child attends this school!

I believe in Clopper Mill. The teachers at CMES truly care and go above and beyond for their students and the current administration is awesome. I am proud to be a teacher at CMES and would send my own child here without hesitation.

Agree with others. I would not use Clopper Mill. Go visit and you'll see why.

This school has failed miserably. I would not advise selecting this ES if at all possible.

The school is striving to become great. Once I became a parent of this school I knew I was misinformed. 1.All of the children are bad: My children are very respectful, caring, and morally rich. They have made friends with children that possess the same traits. Clearly all of the children cannot be bad. Any children that are misguided I don t worry about because what is learned at home translates to the classroom. I know my children will not be misled. 2.The kids are less educated: My children attended daycare with children from other elementary schools in the Germantown area. They learn on the same level, are just as prepared, and all of Montgomery County Schools are taught the same curriculum. 3.The families are low income: In reality a lot of the families in the area own businesses and work for very prestige companies. I believe this opinion has come from the fact a lot of students are minorities. Unfortunately, minority= low income to some people. 4.The leadership is horrible: I have personally interacted with the leaders in the school. I Can t speak for the past but it currently has great principals and staff. Schedule a meeting and get to know them for yourselves.

Clopper Mill is an FANTASTIC example of Montgomery County Public Schools being one of the best in the nation. I would highly recommend this school to anyone concerned with a top notch program for their child.

Excellent progress at this school over the past 3 years. I can now highly recommend Clopper Mill to anyone considering this as an option for their kids! This is one of the best in the county!

Clopper Mill is a top 100 school in the DC area for 2013! There is a reason that this school has been on the incline over the past two years! Excellent staff and academic programs! Clopper Mill may soon be a magnet school for the county!

This school needs a lot of work! It's just should not be called a school because it is a horrible learning environment
