Oh the Tilden family is special! All the grades play together, the parents of all grades know each other and help each other on a daily basis. Tilden kids are widely known and recognised in middle and high schools around because of the kindness and empathy that is fostered here. My daughter was an early reader and math doer, and the teachers meet the kids where they are and fit the curriculum to the student, not the other way around. The traditional epic Halloween carnival every year is a thing to behold - the kids look forward to it for weeks and talk about it for weeks after. There may be no playground (yet, watch this space) but the school has been so resourceful in having lots of mobile games and outdoor toys that give the kids the next best thing. They also have a fantastic after school enrichment which my daughter is thriving in (giving her freedom to play and have fun after the rules of school during the day). I can't say enough good things about Tilden - if you send your child here you won't regret it.

They bring me a fresh bottle of ice water every morning. They have good food 1000% better than hospitals. Communicate your needs and they will comply to their ability. There are a few 1* rating but they are people that don't communicate they just demand. Some are emotional comments because o their circumstances. I believe an ex employee was disgruntled. I would absolutely choose this place. They need to realize they are not your slaves. Most DD/UE are 15min out with most restaurants in Issaquah and Sammamish. The employees at merry, jovial and friendly. You can't measure their value because they are priceless.

Schmitz Park Elementary is a special school that will be in my heart for every. I enjoyed this…read moreschool a lot. I also enjoyed the gym class time while going to Schmitz Park. I learned some many cool activities while there. I learned how to ride the unicycle while in Kindergarten, rode the 6" unicycle in the end part of second grade, handstands, jump rope, pulls ups. And because I learned how to do all those things, we had a show called the Ice Cream social. Family and friends would come to watch us perform for them. Great memories while going there for school.

Great private school, my siblings have gone here since Kindergarten and its such a small little…read moreschool where everyone knows everyone pretty much! Parents are mostly always involved and its always nice to know your kids get more attention since the classes are not overcrowded. When my son is old enough to start school, this may be the one we might enroll him in, if our income permits it! But the Catholicism is very much a huge part of this schools teaching as well as the basic education, they really make it an importance how much they want parents to work with their children with their studies to succeed. Overall, check it out. Its a little older but theres a lot of history here too!

I love this school so much. Between entering preschool and now (5th grade), my son has attended…read morefour elementary schools. This one is, by far, my favorite--he has been seen, included, & loved from day 1. He enrolled as a McKinney-Vento student last year while we were blessed enough to figure out a temporary housing situation. His school has a rating of 2/10 on the main school review websites. It is a Title I school with majority low income families, 78% of students being non-white, and almost 20% of students having IEPs or 504 plans. All students qualify for free/reduced lunch & are sent home on Fridays with a packed bag of weekend meals. The curriculum and day-to-day has been full of color, curiosity, and neurodivergent-friendly practices. He hasn't encountered any weirdness around having queer parents at this school & this is the first place we haven't had to educate his educators on alternatives to addressing parent labels, family tree assignments, father's day art, and the like. They talk about consent and non-violence and mutual respect and pronouns and gender diversity and make space for cultural celebration. Just a friendly reminder that school ratings systems are racist, classist, & ableist. Grateful for the universe leading us exactly where we needed to be & grateful for the educators who show up despite the limited tools they have to work with and make. it. happen. Extra special shout outs to Mr. Hakeem & Ms. Turner.

I feel this is a first rate program and we have been very pleased so far with our experience at Cometa.
