Roland Park Country School

The school places great emphasis on students' daily lives. In the past two years, it has also been actively working to improve its international student programs, hoping to do better and provide more support and care for international students.

The school is located in the beautiful community of Roland Park, where the scenery changes with the four seasons. Although Baltimore's public safety isn't the best, the area where Roland Park is located is very safe, and the school's security measures are excellent. The curriculum is a collaboration between three schools, which is a great advantage if utilized well. In high school, you can meet people and make connections from different schools, which is a great way to improve your social skills. During my years at the school, I significantly improved my understanding of the world and myself, became clearer about my future goals, and gained confidence and encouragement from many people around me, including school teachers, host families, and friends. A high school experience is never 100% perfect, but I am very grateful that Roland Park gave me a memorable high school life and made Maryland my home away from home.

And the diverse and colorful teaching and cultural, artistic, and sports activities truly made us feel that Rowland Hall is indeed a vibrant, loving, warm, inclusive, and excellent girls' school! This year, my child applied to American universities, and I'm so glad my child chose Rowland Hall for high school in the US back then.

We originally planned for her to go in ninth grade, but the pandemic delayed it by a year and a half. We are grateful for the school's patient waiting for our daughter during this period and for consistently providing us with encouragement and help via email, which gave our child the confidence to overcome numerous difficulties and truly enter the school to begin her American high school journey after that year and a half. Subsequently, the school teachers and those beautiful, lovely, and friendly girls provided our child with sincere help and care. The diverse and colorful teaching methods and cultural, artistic, and sports activities truly made us feel that Roland Park is indeed a vibrant, loving, warm, inclusive, and excellent girls' school!
