My daught attends the Capital Hill School. I think its success is mostly due to the partcipation and involvment of the parents in school. The parents volunteer in various activities which in turn makes thier involvement an even more positive element in the success of the school. It offers great activities for the students. This is no brainer and has been found by various educators who know that the more parents are involved in thier childrens' education, the more the education is successful. The school in its part has done a good job of getting parents to participate

The teachers and staff are so dedicated to the students and their education. They instill in our children a desire to learn and to give back to the community. They identify the skills and needs of the children and tailor the assignments appropriately. It is an amazing place and my daughter has thrived at the school
