When I first moved to the area I looked into the O'Neal school as a place to enroll my kids. They were not helpful at all, and when I asked about the tuition rates, they acted as if they were no longer interested in talking with me. Like the old saying "If you have to ask, you can't afford it".

For 5 years now I have had 3 children in school at The O'Neal School. Needless to day the school was a real let down so much so that I took my kids out in the middle of school. I am a very young mom and the kids in the upper school became close to me and would come to me with all their problems. It became a real eye opener to me when I found out the high school dances where dropped because they didn't know how to deal with the kids. For one year of school it cost me $40,000.00 for my 3 kids to go to school their. When I see all these great teachers leaving The O'Neal School to teach at a public school because they get paid more I knew there was something wrong. Great buildings poor education.

All three of my children have gone all the way through The O'Neal School and have attended the first college of their choice. My oldest was totally involved in every aspect of school from clubs to sports and continued that in college, where she graduated with degrees in math and computer technology. My second child is a Marine Biologist who graduated top of her class, and my 'baby' is a junior in college already working in her field of Social Services. They were given, and accepted, opportunities at The O'Neal School that prepared them not only for university life, but for life itself. My wife and I can't imagine them ever having gone to any other school.

My daughter started attending O'Neal last year in PreK and is currently enrolled in Kindergarten. This school is excellent and addresses the needs of the whole child. My daughter thoroughly enjoys school and is academically ahead of her peers in many other schools; both in and out of NC. She can already read and attends Spanish class regularly. This school teaches in a creative academic environment where children are thirsty for more and their individual needs are met due to the smaller classroom sizes. My daughter has so much fun learning that she doesn't realize she did a science experiment, read a map, graphed a chart, enjoyed music class and spent time building strong friendships all in one day of Kindergarten. The environment is extremely safe and nurturing; O'Neal is like a second family and has helped my daughter not survive, but thrive during the hardships of military deployments.
