It's not well known, but these kids are smart, kind, responsible, and respectful. I have no doubt my child will leave this school fully prepared for college AND be an independent thinker. Bravo, Waring. I would also like to add that anyone writing a negative review for this school has clearly not gone to this school. There is ZERO tolerance for bullying and honestly the kids here just wouldn't do that. Everyone is accepted and applauded for who they are. In terms of cost, we did receive substantial financial aid, and the small cost we pay is worth every penny.

Waring is one of the whiter schoolers in Massachusetts, a state filled with elitist institutions like this one. He would complain that Waring had a self congratulatory attitude, but really was not that amazing of a school.

My two kids entered GUS at grade 6 (the "upper school") from the homeschooling environment. They…read morewanted to be in a more traditional school setting, I wanted to ensure their learning environment retained the best parts of homeschooling: diverse, flexible, multi-layered (go as deep as you like!), integrated, and "homey." From day one, GUS has satisfied everyone's needs. I have no question that my children are understood - not just by the teachers and students, but members of the administration and faculty. It is an academically open minded and encouraging place, and thanks to GUS, both my kids have found their voice in ways that pleasantly surprised me. GUS is forward thinking in its mindset, but old fashioned in its process. Trustworthy and creative. It is a very good place.

We were trying to decide between the tailored, child-centered focus and academic rigor of a private…read moreschool, and the diversity, community and openness of a public school. We found both, and even more at Glen Urquhart. From the first moment of our visit, we were struck by the creativity and goodness that permeate every nook and cranny of this magical campus. 3 years later, our daughter is thriving in every way we could have hoped for: academically, creatively and socially. If you are seeking a place where the educators genuinely care about each child, and work to bring out the best in them, look no further. GUS is your place.

I went to Landmark half my middle school through high school. I was born with severe dyslexia. And…read moreI had great tutorial teachers that help, I believe that the one-to-one help me more with my dyslexia. The problem was I didn't do well in regular classes because they would be mixed with people with ADD and different levels of dyslexia. Yes the classrooms were small but with people with severe dyslexia it wasn't small enough. Most kids who get medicated for their ADD then can focus and read. That's not the same with me. The other problem was teachers. They would stay for a certain time. Get their certification in dyslexia and get room and board. They'd leave and get better money. The teachers were also in charge of the afterschool activities. Half of my years in middle school was At a different school And the science teacher there is so motivating, hands on and taught new ways to think about science. I thought I was going to be a scientist. Because of the change of the teachers at Landmark I had a horrible science teacher and just like that I was turned off science. They had people from all over the the world. so because of that they have room and board. I also think they take people who had a lot of money, And not always with a reading problem. When I went there they had kid who are princes from Eastern European, movie star children, and Family so rich that the kids could have their own mansion. That's why Most those buildings are named after their families. I would take a bus to school but I was felt like I was separated from the people who boarded. I could never do The afterschool activities because I had to catch the bus. I was left out. The teachers who would stay we're always good teachers but I left feeling like they should've done a little bit more. When I graduate from high school I wish they inform me how college would've been. How I could use certain techniques to use in college or in a job. I did graduate from college but I still can't read through full book without getting lost or feeling like I forgot what I read. Thank God for technology. I'm using the microphone on my phone to talk into it to type this and the speaker to read back to me so I can correct the words. With a group of my peers in middle school we started a movie called Enni's Gift talking about dyslexia.

Although the academics are top notch, there is just something missing there. The homework load is…read morewaaaaay to much (at least in the honors classes), and that causes social lives to deteriorate. Yes your son will learn more than he needs to know, but without a doubt it comes at a price (not to mention $16,000). I hate the administration. They just are not very good. For instance, today they fired a teacher who was probably the best in the entire school. It was ugly and it occured in the middle of the school year. I consider that disgraceful. The athletics are top notch, and so if your son is an athlete you might consider St. John's. Overall, I would've given three stars, but after today's disgraceful and ugly firing, I have to give only two. It just reinforces my previous belief that the adminstration is incompetent. Not to mention many of the teachers are absolutely horrible to their students, (i.e. teachers giving kids the finger, calling them names, etc.) My youngest son will not be attending.

The Phoenix School was life-changing for my son. He had really struggled at his old school, and had…read morebegun to internalize negative messages about himself. But once he started at the Phoenix School, things turned around. He came home after the first day and said, "It's like the teachers aren't even teachers--they're just people!" The caring relationship with his teachers, the community at the school, the way his teachers push him to do more than he thought he could and support him as he learns to push himself has been amazing. He loves school now and is thriving academically, socially, and emotionally. The way they integrate learning across all their activities is special. Students learn all the academic skills throughout all their activities, along with specialized practice in, say, math or writing, especially as they get older. They also use the community at large as their classroom with frequent out-of-the-classroom learning experiences that engage students far more than anything I've seen at any other school. Teachers support students as they produce high-quality work, with autonomy and ownership over their own learning. Teachers are among the most dedicated professional educators I've ever met. They work hard to create a community of students, faculty, staff, parents, and community members dedicated to the well-being and education of students as complete people. It's not possible for me to say enough good things about this school.

Both of my kids were good students upon entering Tower School, but because Tower has small class sizes they were able to receive lots of extra attention in English, Math, and the Arts. They blossomed as readers, writers, artists, and each discovered a love of technology. Both also played sports and participated in the middle school drama program. It was wonderful to see them develop as young people, and discover what excited them at school. Our whole family made lifelong friends a Tower too. My son and daughter graduated from Tower School and headed to excellent high schools and performed beautifully there as well. Five stars from this family!!

His teachers were wonderful, always attentive, positive and kind, and we're so grateful for his time with Ms Doris, Ms Tia and Ms Miralba. He learned so much in his time here and always enjoyed attending. We needed to make a switch due to some life circumstances, but it was difficult to make that choice because our time here was positive. Nicole is a great communicator, always very responsive and helpful. When our son's transitioned to the next class up, preschool age, he struggled a bit with the change and Nicole helped facilitate a meeting to help ease our minds. I know firsthand how difficult it can be to choose a daycare as a working parent, so hoping this reviews eases the feelings of uncertainty while navigating your childcare search. We recommend MKU to others and think it's been a safe environment where our son has thrived. We've also met many great families along the way, there is a great community there. Thank you to everyone at MKU!

If so, go ahead. The director, Nicole Camarda, I don't even wanna talk about her. She's so mean, fake, and shows no care to the staff. Shaking her little butt and telling people what to do, but at least she does some work, unlike the reception fat girl who just sits there all day, does nothing but snacking (I guess that's why you are fat though), as if the world owns her money. They are always short-staffed, so it doesn't matter if you have a college degree or higher degree- you will get hired no matter what and get the LOWEST PAY as someone who never even finished high school. They won't read your resume because they will literally hire anyone who applied for. Also, the teachers- OMG, ridiculous, rude, unkind, mean. STAY AWAY FROM these classrooms led by (I know both their first and last names, but only first names this time) Angelina, Daniela, Miriam (Infant room), Valentina (Casa room). This is a very ridiculous place to work- I'm telling you. The turnover rate is EXTREMELY high. JUST RUN & STAY AWAY.
