This keeps them from having to send in the am to a daycare, have him transported to school, picked up by the daycare at school and transported back.

I also like the top stop of the classroom sizes.

Sage High School is an authorized IB (International Baccalaureate Program) World School and offers…read morethe IB Diploma Program (DP). I originally became interested in Sage because my daughter left 6th grade at Christine Donnell School of the Arts (a charter school in Meridian Joint District 2) and entered Lake Hazel Middle School as a 7th grader. Lake Hazel is so overcrowded that I felt that the curriculum wasn't being taught very efficiently - my daughter wasn't being challenged. In addition to that issue, the overcrowding was obnoxious to the point of severe frustration and anger. (But that's a whole different review). So, Sage attracted my attention because of the small class sizes and challenging curriculum. It has been wonderful! Sage is a school where a student can really push his or herself. My daughter is in 8th grade, but most of her classes are combined with 9th graders, and she's in 10th grade advance math. Not to brag, but it's nice to have the option of moving ahead if you're smart enough. By staying challenged and pushing herself, I know that she's not getting into trouble. In addition, Sage doesn't have a gym. instead they go out into the community for Urban PE. The also don't have a library, but instead take walking field trips as often as needed to the city library (conveniently located in their neighborhood). This has helped my somewhat shy daughter become more comfortable in an urban (yes, I know it's not Seattle or LA) environment. I did take off one star because they don't offer traditional sports programs. My daughter plays soccer and runs cross country, but Sage doesn't get out until after 4pm (they have longer hours, but then no school on Friday's). Because of their longer hours, my daughter can't even participate in sports at another school - she can't get there early enough for practices or games/meets. There are work arounds of course. She has been able to play soccer in a community league and Sage has implemented a lunch time running club. I also took off a star because Sage only offers French. I feel like the reality is that we live in a country where a huge percentage of the population speaks Spanish and it should at least be an option. The work around has been to take Spanish during school hours with the IDLA system. It's not ideal. She is an advanced Spanish student and was forced to take beginning Spanish this year, as you have to start IDLA at the beginning, but at least its something. Sage also has an Elementary/Middle school. It's at a different location, on Parkcenter Blvd. They just opened the new campus this years, having taken over the old Parkcenter Mall location.

There is nothing Christ like with the majority of students and staff at BISHOP KELLY in BOISE…read more There are a lot of students here who bully and harass other students. My child never had a problem making friends, a sports team and has attended Catholic High Schools prior to Bishop Kelly. My daughter, a cheerleader said she never thought kids could be so nasty. The staff will do nothing to keep your teenager safe. I guess... Once Upon a Time prior to 2014/2015 this was a great school. In December 2021 almost 2022 this school in my experience has been exactly what I read on the 1&2 star reviews on all the sites that allow reviews. 2016 to current is when the problems started at Bishop Kelly. Wish I read the reviews before paying over $15K to this school. We are new to this school this year in 2021/2022. My child will not be attending in Jan. 2022. This school is a HORRIBLE school. This is not a practicing Catholic School. The school wants your money, especially the ones like my family who don't receive aid. Their very nice up until fees are paid and contract signed. After that, consider yourself lucky if the return an email. They ghost ya!

We…read morecurrently have all our kids enrolled, and we love the education they are getting, both academically and spiritually. With many Christian schools, it seems that faith is put on top of curriculum, like frosting on a cake. I've seen at CVCS that faith is baked into the cake itself. For example, every parent/teacher conference is opened in prayer, each child is prayed over when considering classroom placement, and Christianity permeates every aspect of academics and social activities. If you live in the Treasure Valley and want a solid education for your kids, as well as having them surrounded by positive role models, I strongly recommend Cole Valley!

They work cooperatively to provide the best education to each student in every grade. The parish is incredibly supportive of the school. You can sense a true partnership between the school and the parish. Parents are welcomed to be engaged in their child's education and the school. Parents are encouraged to attend daily prayer and Mass each week with the children. The students are challenged differently as they progress from Pre-K to 8th grade. St. Mary's students primarily head to Bishop Kelly, where they have a strong reputation of being academically prepared as well as being some of the most welcoming and kind students around. I strongly encourage you to check out St. Mary's incredible community.

Both have benefited greatly from the school's academically rigorous IB program, its unique outdoor experiences, and its incredibly kind and supportive student body. The faculty have been very accessible and helpful in personalizing education for each child, and I have seen the results of the education when my children have participated in programs outside the school and received recognition for outstanding performance. I would recommend Riverstone highly and without reservation to anyone looking for an outstanding academic education within a supportive environment that helps them develop a range of important life skills including critical thinking, community involvement, and communication skills.

In 7th grade art class the assignment was to write a report on a contemporary artist. My child was told their pick was "too white male." My child was subsequently instructed to choose a BIPOC artist, with extra points if they were "queer." My complaints regarding this fell on deaf ears. Many of the teachers are pretty decent, but the school tilts WAY to the left. The non-woke portions of the curriculum are good, especially the math and outdoor-centric programs. However, we did put our son in a different international school and he was way behind in Chemistry, Physics, and Biology. His new school has these as stand-alone classes starting in Grade 5. Not so at Riverstone.

The reason for the low score of Three stars is the professionalism of a few teaches. They don't appear to be welcoming to all parents. When greeted with a smile and a cheerful, "good morning" the teacher's response is a sneer and a grunt without even looking up. I'm fairly confident it is not with all parents, because I have heard great things about Mrs. Wimer and Mrs. May and they do put on a good show but not real. They preach "Be kind" but they are anything but kind and in my experience they just grunt. Just a bit cliquish for my taste.

For example, ms Tina. She is a duty that is around kids all the time. She is not a role model and I'm pretty sure she hates kids. She has screamed at kids for no reason at all. 1 time a kindergartener threw snow ( they had a ridiculous rule that forbid throwing snow) she got mad and he tried to explain himself. She told him to shut up and go sit in the corner. HORRIBLE ROLEMODEL. Another story is when I was in 5th grade I had ms mills as a teacher. She is retired now. But when she was my teacher the class was being loud as 5th graders do and instead of telling is to be quite or clapping or something. She started screaming, "SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP, YOUR BEING A BUNCH OF LITTLE IDIOTS!!!". And to make matters worse. There was no punishment to her. Not even a slap on the wrist. And I know a lot of other teachers like that but I don't want to make this story an hour long. Long story short don't send your kids here. Just don't. Horrible teachers, horrible staff, horrible school. Don't even get me started on the principal. Ms severson. She is a very Mormon women who dress codes everyone. For anything. DONT PUT YOUR KIDS IN THIS SCHOOL EVER!!!!!!
