    This school is wonderful and successfully implements the Montessori method. They are kind and…read morepatient with the children. All of the staff is helpful, and together they generate a community and environment that encourages emotional and educational growth for children. I highly recommend this school.

    My two children attended this school for three years, and my youngest attended this school up until…read moreFriday of last week. Until this current school year, we were satisfied with our experience. In fact, we actively recommended them to other families. I can no longer do so in good conscience. Distance learning during a pandemic is difficult for all involved, both staff and students. My daughter began this school year doing distance learning. She was not doing well at all; she struggled. We requested extra help for her in the form of a detailed daily schedule to follow, since both parents are also working full time. The school instead gave her daily one-on-one time with the founder, Ms. Betty. Even with this daily help, our daughter was not completing her work, so her father and I were spending evenings checking on her assignments in Google Classroom. During this checking, we came across a story that had been assigned to my daughter's class for a reading comprehension assignment. This appalling story is shown in the pictures attached to this review. After a moment of "does that really say what I think it says?!?", my husband and I decided to email the school's administration and the classroom teacher. We were already very frustrated because of our daughter's distance learning issues, so my email was direct and to the point. This is racist. It is unacceptable. Why is your school using a 50 year old reading curriculum? What other overtly racist stories are in this curriculum? Why isn't the classroom teacher reading what she is assigning to students? I expected to receive an apology and a solution. What we got instead was the most unprofessional email I have ever seen to come from a school administrator. The administrator agreed to research a new reading program to purchase based on the age of the materials, but then told us that we had accused them personally of being racist and that that was offensive. No apologies for the content of the story. No "oh my goodness, I didn't realize that was in there". No admission that the story was unacceptable. Just defensiveness and blame-shifting. We requested to be released from our Spring tuition contract, and that request was granted. We withdrew our daughter and enrolled her in public school. We had paid our tuition in full through December, so we are out several thousand dollars, but felt that this was the right course of action given the circumstances. For the record, we do not accuse any individual of personally being racist. However, racist materials were clearly present in their curriculum and were distributed to students. We believe other parents should be aware of this incident when they are making decisions about how to educate their children.

    I started in 5th grade, and it was really hard to get used to the workload. However, back then,…read morethey had teachers who cared. When we got a new head of school, almost all of our good teachers quit or got fired. Additionally, they are very bad at following 504 plans. It took me 2 years to get a 504 plan, and they kept ignoring it. In 7th grade, I was failing math with a 30, and my teacher never communicated with my mom about it. If you don't want to be an astrophysicist or something, the school is not worth it. The one upside of this school is the community and Ms.Matchett, she was the one teacher who actually helped with my missing assignments and wasn't rude to me when I'd lose focus during class. Another thing that can affect your decision to apply here is that once I had a science teacher who tried to fail me for no reason and almost kicked me out for moving my chair "too loud." Thankfully, she was fired for being racist to one of my classmates but it's still something to keep in mind. (Also, the PE coaches are nice just PE doesn't really affect my grades lol)

    This school is the reason I have never been the same. I used to be such a happy girl, and now my…read morelife completely sucks. That school had brought suicide thoughts, self harm, and depression onto me. I do not know why people even think about going here. Some girl cut me with a pair of scissors, which started my self harm mindset. But if you want to be bullied, have teachers LITERALLY HIT you, then go right here!!
