I wanted to check in while at my daughters school. Maywood is by far the BEST middle school in the…read moregreater Seattle area. Even though this pandemic turned everyone's routine upside down, the school is still encouraging the kids to get involved in clubs (done after school). My daughter is in Speech and Debate and use to be so shy to talk in front of others. The teacher really pulls the kids out of their comfort zone, and encourages the kids to really engage with each other. Although the clubs are virtual, the kids still meet new friends, exchange numbers and even reconnect with friends they haven't seen since before the pandemic. The kids still get acknowledged by the staff, recognized for honor roll and we received an email that had an award for our daughter. Thank you Maywood staff for keeping these kids engaged, active and for giving the kids credit when they do amazing things. We will all be back to school soon, we're counting down the days at our house.

They take academic rigor very seriously, while also allowing the students time and space to process and learn. He loves it! Lots of outside time in nature. The school does an excellent job fostering the natural creativity, curiosity, and enthusiasm in children as part of each child's learning journey.

Cedar River Montessori has been an amazing school for my daughter. The community is wonderful and…read moresupportive, the teachers care about and know students' strengths, opportunities for growth and individual personalities in detail. Students have a chance to explore topics they're truly interested in, supported by passionate educators. Learning happens all across CRMS' 12 acre campus, indoor & out--from animal care to gardening and nature education. I'm grateful my child has the one-of-kind experience she gets everyday at Cedar River.

My child was targeted at this High school by a specific staff who was the dean of students. She lied to me, being his mother about his behavior in class which was false. The schools educational program is weak as well as the staffs help towards their students and parents. The school sports are also a joke and a waste of time. Not a single member is serious about their job. This school is a total joke and would not recommend anyone to attend this junk yard.

This school sucks.

Just in our experience so far, this school is top notch in all areas: math, science, language arts, orchestra. We could not be happier with the number of opportunities (clubs) within the school as well as in the Renton School District. If I could go back in time, I would have put him through the public school system, specifically Renton. It is a challenging but supportive school. Thank you, Risdon staff!
