My child is currently in 3rd grade and has been to five different schools here in Knoxville and we have finally found our niche. It is a wonderful place with a kind staff, a beautiful campus and a challenging curriculm. My son, nor I could be happier. It is about time Knoxville has a REAL private school based not on ones finances but on a families involvement with their childs education. Thank you ESK

As students advance in grade, the educational ball is dropped.For example,by the fourth grade they do not know the parts of speech, but are expect to write research papers. Nice staff, but the school lacks an educational plan.

We Put our very bright 5 year old in to kindergarten at ESK at the begining of the school year. The whole school was wonderful, the teacher gave him more challenging work and once she got to know him she excelled him in to first grade. The transition was so smooth he thought he decided on his own to change! He loves his first grade teacher who also nurtures his intelligence. The art, language and music and PE programs are just phenomenal. But the most importatn factor is that EVERY child is TREASURED at ESK!

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.
