The academic rigor is challenging, but the teachers go above and beyond to ensure that each student is given ample opportunities to learn the material. My son is thriving in all areas: academically, physically (sports), and mentally. It has been so rewarding to watch him mature into such a well-rounded young man. Thanks, Millwood Team!

In terms of academics, it is a decent school. However, this schools administration is truly…read moreterrible in my opinion. The administration does absolutely zero solutions in any situation. The school does not hesitate to violate its own "code of conduct", often to benefit the school, even if it harms its students. The school will do nothing if a student is harassed or bullied, and it will cover up any incidents that occur at the school without even attempting to solve them if it will make the school look bad. Again, the actual academics are good, but I would strongly advise against going here, due to the administration.

This school is huge!…read more It is so large it reminded me of a hospital. Very upscale here and I love it! I attended the school's gym a week ago to root on our Bulldogs. But they fell short at the end. You would think, one would enter in the front of the school to attend the basketball game. But there was another entrance about a mile around the school where we needed to enter. Instead of walking in the cold, we drove around to bus ramp area and this is where the gym is located. The gym here is pretty large it definitely accommodated the large crowd on a weeknight... Varina vs Kings Fork... a rematch from last year. The Bulldogs fell short again! I am not sure if the concession stand was open because when we arrived it wasn't. As a result, minus one star. If the stand did open, they must not have offered a lot because I did not see one nacho, one hotdog... nothing... bummed! Plenty of parking. Check it out if you are in the area. It's massive. Have fun and enjoy life :)

They have high turnover in staff, especially teachers. The head of school and school principal are unprofessional and does not represent what this school says it represents. The curriculum is whitewashed and they do not like parent feedback, nor are they welcoming to new families. The administration gives me high school cliche vibes. I knew I should've left the moment the school principal told me that the parents that drove Mercedes, were the ones that paid little to no tuition. For the amount of money that you pay, there aren't any resources. It doesn't appear that money is being funneled back into the school. You literally have to pay for everything, including the curriculum. The unorganization is the worst I've ever seen. I didn't even know who my child's teacher was until the night before the first day of school. I had to research on Facebook the night before to see what she looked like. The head of school, I believe is the downfall to this school. I was in disbelief, when him and the principal were on social media making fun of a situation and calling me out of my name because I disagreed how they handled an assault! My previous review has been removed or hidden. In that review, I included screenshots of my claims. My advice, don't ignore the red flags- they are there in the beginning. Look at their website, that tells it all.

We have a daughter who attended the Richmond Waldorf School for 11 years. She easily gained…read moreentrance to the public magnet HS she wanted to attend and has earned the highest GPA possible in her first year. Why? because, she knew how to think around a problem, how to make an object if needed, how to work on a team, and how to listen to what the teachers had to say. 1) in 8th grade RWS students learn coding and they use computers, in fact, most Waldorf school grads are well above their peers in math and science, Why? because they know the beauty and why of math, not just the memorization of rote SOL questions. 2) Waldorf educated children write beautifully, they fall in love with verse, song and poetry early and are used to reciting and reading in public. 3) They can actually MAKE something, food, sewing, drawings, music, woodworking. Try teaching a group of college students at the nations top ranked school of art and design to make something.....I wish they were all Waldorf grads. 4) Waldorf students were a valued part of a class and school family, their voices were heard and respected, and they in turn hear others. They are unafraid to stand up to bullying or injustice. They do not judge others as less than worthy. Waldorf students are compassionate, they have not been hardened by a grinding rote school process with social dysfunction and cliques. Waldorf may not be for everyone, if your child has certain learning needs requiring support that only a big school system has, it won't be the answer for you. If you need constant support of your needs and to helicopter, it won't work for you, and it might just not fit your family, and that's ok, if it does work for you, embrace it!

My daughter is in her second year at the Richmond Waldorf School. We have had nothing but extremely…read morepositive experiences with the school and the school community. What drew me to RWS was their philosophy around educating the whole child. The skills that children learn in a Waldorf program are designed to build a healthy, educated whole individual. You can teach a child very specific skills at any school. Waldorf is helping to develop and nurture children's natural curiosity which is something that can't be found in a textbook. A curious child that is nurtured becomes a life long learner. Not everyone is familiar with the Waldorf education and it's fundamentals.

The hands-on training gave me the confidence and practical skills I needed to prepare for the real world. The staff is always professional, encouraging, and willing to answer questions or provide guidance whenever needed. I also appreciate that the programs are career-focused, allowing students to build the knowledge and experience employers are looking for. Fortis College offers healthcare and skilled trades programs designed to prepare students for entry-level careers through classroom, lab, and clinical training. If you're looking for a college that values student success, provides practical learning opportunities, and creates a supportive environment, I highly recommend Fortis College in Richmond.

I think it's because they do the same general thing week-to-week and there isn't a sense of goals or progress over time. I am also not a fan of their membership model. It's basically $100 a month and it just goes on infinitely until you choose to stop. I would prefer it to be structured more around "seasons" with a culminating show so the kids could feel a sense of growth, progress and pride. All in all - We enjoyed our time but will be looking for other gymnastics options in the future with a different class model oriented more towards growth.
