I don't know where to begin. We just joined the Merryhill family in Summerlin. The admissions process was like no other I have experienced. Linda, the admissions director went above and beyond for us from the very first phone call and interaction with her. My guess is that she just naturally does this because it seems that is who she is. As parents we had in our mind when relocating to NV exactly what we wanted for our daughter. We toured many private schools in Las Vegas and while they were nice Merryhill stood out to us by a landslide. The first impression that was made by Linda in admissions is what made us know we had found our home for our daughter. Then the principal reached out and we had the same experience. Professional, kind, truly caring. For the first time it feels like we are not the only ones with our daugther's best interest at heart. I do not usually write reviews but I felt it is so important to do so. There were so many things we were looking for in a school for our daughter and Merryhill has checked those boxes off without a doubt. Most importantly our daughter has been made to feel more than welcome, they have made her feel special and cared for in a very short time. Linda is organized, kind, professional and a wonderful person. We are beyond blessed to have found Merryhill and have met her. You will not be disappointed, if looking for a school for your child I highly recommend calling Linda. Her and the principal Ms. Yingling are on it! Thank you for everything! read more

This school is AMAZING and well worth the cost! The staff are professional, empathetic, and communicative, and it's clear they view the school as a community with a desire to work closely with parents. I was recently under the weather and thought it prudent to get "a test," and of course wanted to pull my 5-yr-old daughter out of school until the results came back. Upon contacting them they had her ready to go, and were incredibly supportive- the principle even sent me a follow up note to see how I was doing later that day! My test ended up coming back negative during the night a few days later, and because of their quick responses to early morning messages we were able to get my daughter back in school instead of her missing another day (which she was very pleased about because she LOVES it there). In a challenging time full of challenging decisions for parents, it is awesome to know that my daughter's school is so supportive and professional; they look for solutions, not problems, and that's exactly what we need! I know they will work with me, 100%, during any hardships we may face in the future and that is so stress-relieving amidst the rest of all this. Thank you Merryhill!! (and a special shout out to their principle, who is always on the ball and positive) read more

We have been a member of the Merryhill "family" for years now, and this is my first time submitting a review. I felt compelled to do so as we've all been facing challenging times with COVID-19. Prior to the onset of the pandemic, we'd been very satisfied with the teachers and current leadership; and echo many of the comments in prior reviews. It's truly been great and worth the investment. Well, not that I needed another reason to feel confident about the decision we had made as to where to send our children, I got one. Unfortunately, with COVID-19 life took a detour and once the decision was made to close the school, Merryhill didn't skip a beat. A distance learning program tailored to each class (we have two students enrolled in different grades) was immediately implemented. Having not to worry about the continuation of their education has been one less stress. Of course, we all had to transition to this new "structure," more so my husband and I in balancing work schedules, but the children had no problem and a lot of that was because of the planning and continued involvement of the teachers and leadership at Merryhill. So, a shout out to the entire Merryhill faculty and thank you for doing what you all do best. You're all greatly appreciated! read more

Merryhill Summerlin has been an incredible home for my daughter's curiosity and personality to bloom! To me as a parent it was very important for me to support her into a school where both mind and heart are given the opportunity to grow, where finding her own unique voice is celebrated, where she feels seen and heard and safely explores and expresses her own talents, where kindness is not just a slogan, but what is role modeled by each staff member. My daughter has flourished in this place and everyday bringing her to school fills my Mom's heart with gratitude. These days we are all challenged as parents to rethink our criteria for schools, academic rigor and/or freedom of interest pursuit are no longer the two ends of a continuum we can scroll and make a choice. If we are eager for our kids to live and create as humans in a highly AI enabled world we should start now to pay attention to what makes us uniquely human. I looked through the old paradigm AND I chose with my Heart! Thank you Merryhill!!! read more

I was so nervous for my daughter to start school. I checked a few different Merryhill locations but when I was referred to Merryhill Elementary(SnowTrail) I had no doubts that was the school my daughter was going to be enrolled in. From day one they have a genuine staff along with the best teachers who helps your child advance. I can say my daughter is reading at 2nd grade level. But the team at this school is one of a kind. Their loving, involved, one on one and your a family. Mrs. Romo teaches my daughter's 1st grade class and I love her energy, patience, just a very happy, nice teacher for these children. Mrs. Arceo and Mrs. Orton we have been blessed to have these women running our school. Smart, beautiful, Fun, and the list goes on. Thank you ladies for all your hard work and hours you guys put in. This is the school where your child needs to be signed up in. If not your missing out for your child's future. read more

This year is the second year my son attends Merryhill school. He learned a lot from Mrs. West in kindergarten class. When he first attended the school , he didn't read or write but after three months we saw him progress. Now he is in first grade he loves Mrs. Gordon class, it is fun that she has forest theme in her classroom along with her pets such as spider and snake. The school administration work hard to keep us informed on daily basis, either through emails, or flyers so we won't miss an important meeting or school activities. Many parents participate with school activities and meetings which are good signs. I highly recommend this school to any families looking for a well rounded school. read more

We were in need of full-time in-person instruction for our 5 yo son and 7 yo daughter since the school we were zoned for was shut down due to COVID-19 and since we had sent our children to the Preschool, we decided to look into the Elementary school. We are so grateful we did. Our children have safely been attending full-time, in-person since June 2020. We have yet to miss work due to school closure. We applaud the principal and all of the staff for meeting all the state requirements while still providing a fun learning environment for our children. Our kids love the school and even beg to stay as long as possible in the extended care program. No complaints here - Thank you for a great year! read more

Everyone on the campus knows who she is and the staff is amazing. I recommend this school to everyone. read more

My daughter started attending Merryhill for the 2020/2021 school year. It has been one of the best decisions we've made.

Give them a tour, you won't be disappointed. read more

We love Merryhill Elementary School. My 2nd grader feels so at home there. The teachers and staff help him in every way so that he can become the best student he can be. The specialty classes are wonderful and he enjoys them so much. There is a real family atmosphere that makes him feel comfortable. It's a pleasure to walk through the front door every day. If we get really lucky they will add a 6th and possibly a 7th grade. read more

My son has been a student at Merryhill since 2017 and so far so good. We have all enjoyed the learning journey he is on. The curriculum is a few steps above most schools and the classrooms are fairly small with two teachers assigned. With any school there has been up's and down's but overall our experience has been a good one and we are not looking to leave. read more
