Love it! All of the teachers are so nice and caring. I did very well in school because of my teachers. I would recommend going to this school.
Love the school! Love the office staff! Love....Love .....LOVE the faculty! If you don't know about the Phoenix Ranch School, your children are missing a great educational opportunity.
Fantastic school. Education is way above any public school and private school in the area. Many wonderful enrichment programs and the faculty is truly dedicated to your family and children's growth and education. Contrary to some families, I feel as though, the school doesn't reach out enough to their families for financial support and doesn't have enough fundraisers. They have a very reasonable tuition for the quality of education and services they provide and each of us could do more to grow the school. We love this school and couldn't imagine our family anywhere else!
My sons have been at PR for 6 years. In our opinion it is the best school in the area both acedemically and socially. The staff and administration is wonderful, but the teachers are the best reason to send your child to this school. They all have teaching credentials, and most have degrees. No school is perfect and there are thngs I would like to see improved. In particular the sports facilities are somewhat lacking. But for a small school they do have an adequate sports program. The school is particularly good for working families. The before and after school care is very good, well run and my sons love being there. I am more than happy with the education my children are getting at PR.
We have been in the Phoenix Ranch family for 9 years. My child started Phoenix at 18 months of age. The staff is wonderful. The administration staff are angels in disguise. The student body have so much respect for eachother and so much pride. My child has made honor roll each year she was eligible to do so. If there is one thing I would wish that Phoenix would change it would be to add grades 9-12!
My son has been at The Phoenix Ranch for two years now. His grades and his confidence have improved more than I could have ever expected. The small class sizes and the caring, professional teachers and staff are outstanding. He is learning more than just the basics. He has learned spanish, music, art and they offer a variety of athletics. Making the decision to transfer my son to The Phoenix Ranch School was the best decision I have ever made. I only wish he could attend school there through high school! If you are looking at private schools, this one is the best. I looked at several and this one is the best out there.
I have had two children that have attended Phoenix Ranch School, 1 of whom has attended since preschool and is currently in 7th grade. As a parent, I have been very pleased to have had the opportunity to make Phoenix Ranch such an important part of my children's education. The quality of education is excellent and I feel confident it is providing a very strong foundation for the future. The staff and administration have always been caring, attentive, patient and responsive. To the parent who wrote on Wednesday with an unhappy experience, I would encourage you to talk to the staff and administration about your dissatisfaction. I strongly believe they will be responsive and work with you to address any concerns you have. We feel it's a wonderful school!
I am a parent of a student at the Phoenix Ranch School. We have been at the school for several years and have never been with a more loving and caring staff of professionals. I feel that the last post is so unfair. There are all types of students at the school and the teachers and administrators work really hard being positive role models for each and every student. Students and parents are treated with respect, including the students with behavior problems. I feel that parents who are unable to take control of their child's behavior for one reason or another, blame the behavior on the school or the child's teacher.
We have been a Phoenix Ranch family for many years. My children began at the preschool and continued on at the elementary school. The academics are wonderful! They are able to challenge my child that works above grade level and also provide tutoring for students needing extra assistance. All students are treated kindly and fairly. It is like one big family there and we love that sense of community. My children are not perfect, but they are treasured, nutured and very much respected even when they need the occasional redirection. It's a great place to learn and a wonderful family to be a part of.
I did extensive research on schools throughout the area to select the right school for our family. We have been here now TWO HAPPY YEARS! I am impressed with the caring professionals - not only in the classroom, but also in the administration. They respect and care about the families, always greet you with a smile and friendly hello, the program is enriched with a variety of classes, sports, language, music, etc, and they are concerned not only with achieving academic excellence but also devoting time to developing quality character traits as well. The teachers are open to discussion and are in tune with each child. The post below is very unfair and untrue! The Administration is always looking for ways to improve the school and program. My son loves the school! I know without a doubt that I made the right choice for my family!
