This school is excellent . Small classes. Engaged teacher. They see the individual person in every student and make them do their best. Our son has developed very good and has got high results, but maybe sometimes a bit to much homework.

I started my oldest son in the 'two's' program a few years ago and now I my youngest child is starting in the Fall. The teachers and staff are amazing. Everyone knows your child and YOU. Parents are expected to play a significant role in their child's education so you are informed every step of the way. There is absolutely NO comparision--this is the best primary education in town. It's a bit 'pricey' but I think if I had to, I would sell plasma to send my kids there.

I love this school and my both children are doing great. I want parents to know that it is worth it. Experience your kids love for learning in a progressive environment.

It is a good school but the administration leaves a great deal to be desired. Academically it is wonderful is you can get beyond the control issues that the administrator has.

Students benefit from a low student-teacher ratio and learn at their own pace. They can move ahead in some subjects without leaving their age group in the classroom. Teachers really know the students and help them grow academically, personally and in their study skills. Lots of clubs and activities, including athletics. Lots of diversity in the student body- students from over thirty countries are represented. A magical place!

Great Montessori teaching techniques, for students 2 years old and up. The children who attend this school are far more advanced than their peers in public schools. They understand the basics of algebra and trig at the KG level. They understand the concept of homework and work ethics at a young age. The school tuition is quite reasonable compared to other private schools. After schol programs include chess. Music, language and Art are impressive. Sports could be improved upon.

Community ratings and reviews do not represent the views of GreatSchools nor does GreatSchools check their accuracy or verify the reviewers' identities. Use your discretion when evaluating these reviews.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.

Average

average

Our rating (from 1 to 10) reflects a school's overall performance. The higher the rating, the more likely the school will prepare your child for the future, so choose an above-average school (8-10) if possible. For average schools (4-7), do careful research and look for evidence that the school has high-quality programs. For below-average schools (1-3), take caution; a low-performing school may not provide the instruction or environment your child needs to learn, and you may need to supplement classroom lessons at home.

Academic rating

The academic rating is made up of equally-weighted parts: students' test scores, their academic growth (for elementary and middle schools) and their readiness for college (for high schools). Unfortunately, this school doesn't have sufficient data to generate an academic rating.

Climate ratings

Climate rating for this school is not yet available.

Oops! We currently do not have any student information for this school. We rely on the state Department of Education, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), and in some cases school administrators such as registrars and principals for this data.
