Archway is a great school and I highly recommend it! My two children (elementary and middle school ages) love school and are challanged and inspired daily at Archway through its hands on learning approach. It's academics are strong and their teachers are 'incredible'. My kids are bright and I am so grateful for Archway's commitment to smaller classes (particularly in today's education climate). Archway students and their families are diverse, smart and talented. It is a close community and the kids develop a strong sense of community and leadership. This is not a school that will be overly formal or 'teach to the test', but rather one that will deliver an enriched, memorable education. It is a school for smart, curious kids and their families that want more than a traditional education.

This is a great school not just for children with emotional problems. It is very Diverse much more so then most. You will not find a more diverse school. All the kids in my daughters class are normal children without learning problems. I am not sure what is meant by they are too sheltered in another review. The children go on field trips on public as well as school bus, they do community service. In kindergarden my daughters class sang at a home for the elderly, they took a feild trip on a public bus and walked through China town. My daughters has several best friends who go to public school.

Archway School has been a godsend to our family. The teachers are supportive, caring and focus on academics and social development, while truly caring about the students at their school. The classes are small, and the community is tight. I would wish for all kids to have as supportive and learning-focused an environment as Archway has to offer.

Archway School is NOT for students with emotional and/or learning challenges and has diversity in both its staff and students. We prepare learners for life through academics, responsibility, community and hands-on learning. Our graduates go to their first choice high schools, and their school experience is filled with engaging projects, hands-on learning, and fulfilling relationships. Please come see for yourself!
