Walden School of Liberal Arts

As a new kindergarten parent I was very concerned with finding the right education experience for my children. I researched every school within driving distance before my son started school and was very impressed with what I learned about Walden. It's a 30 minute commute (one way) but my son's experience this year has made it worth every minute. His teachers are wonderful and I've been quite impressed with their openness and communication with me as a parent. They are proactive and individually focused on the needs of each child. I was a little concerned at the start of the school year because my son just considered his time at school as playing games all day. When I approached his teacher she was great about better explaining the Montessori philosophy and was able to show me areas in which my son was not only learning, but excelling. My whole family has been made to feel at home at Walden and we have had an exceptional year. My three year old can't wait to start school and my kindergartner is already making plans for what he'll be doing there over the next eleven years. Walden has provided my son with an excellent foundation on which to build the rest of his primary education.

As a student at Walden I really feel like it was an excellent choice for me. I feel close to every single one of my teachers, and the art program has presented me with a lot of really wonderful oppurtunities. I am very blessed to have gotten in to such a great school, where learning is actually enjoyable! Thanks you to all staff who made our school possible, I love Walden so much.

The Greatest school EVER! I am free to learn and be independent, I have never been to a better school in my life.

We've loved this school so far. Sometimes things aren't completely organized, but if you're a little flexible, it's worth it. There are monthly field trips, excellent instruction, hands-on learning, and if you're willing to spearhead a project, you can go for it.

My daughter finished Kindergarten last year, and I could not be happier with our choice of school for her. I was not satisfied with my options in the tradition school system, and when I heard that Walden was opening a true Montessori elementary, I nearly hyperventilated with excitement. I knew we had to get our daughter in. The teachers are amazing, and the classrooms are inviting. Walden is a truly exceptional school.

It's very small but other wies it's a great school it just began a elmentry school that is montesori. Walden is a great school for those who want to travel. My best friend just went to turkey for 3 weeks I chose to stay and do the special activites instead. The Elmentry kids go on a field trip at least one a week. Some teen's would hate being with little kid's but it's not like that they really look up to you and you play an important role model. I give it a 5!:)
