Family School

Simple. Good teachers struggling to provide the best education they can. Multi-age classrooms let kids work together to learn.

Family School consistently exceeds state standards, and is known for its project based learning. The teachers here are simply awesome! There is a tight sense of community that is rare in this cookie cutter era of 'pass 'em through the line' attitude in education. Our son has flourished and grown here, and almost every one of his classmates have also thrived. The classrooms all have that sort of healthy 'buzz' of teachers and students exchanging ideas and working together. Our son has attended Family School since the first grade, and we feel so lucky to have this school available to us.

We have two kids in Family School. The teachers are fantastic, the other families are great and the kids are the best. It is a great administration and faculty for encouraging biking and walking too. We couldn't be happier.

My first grader loves school so much. He certainly is thriving and learning so much. His fellow students are so nice, and I think it reflects the super high parent involvement. The teachers are so caring and energetic with praise. He loves being able to ride his bike to school everyday and park his bike next to is teacher's bike. Family School really is embracing Safe Routes to School, and takes field trips on bikes. His whole class even had violin lessons as part of the regular day. Very cool -Family School.

Our daughter and our entire family are enjoying both the quality of education and the quality of relationships we are experiencing at Family School. We couldn't be happier with the variety of offerings she can choose from during explorations, and the integrated focus on skill development. Yay Family School!

My son has been at Family School for three years and we have thoroughly benefited from our experience. He has been in a multi-age classroom where he has gotten to experience being the youngest, middle and now the oldest child in the class. He has benefited from the mentoring of others and now being a mentor. The curriculum is integrated in many ways, so that students do projects that create opportunities for all types of learning--reading, writing, math, art, music, etc. They also have 'Explorations' four days a week where they get to choose a class like Spanish or Circus Arts or Computer Design. I have seen him blossom from a shy, insecure boy into a confident third-grader who reads at a 6th grade level and thinks math is 'fun.' I also have found some great partners in raising him to be a caring, kind child as well.
