For my daughter is this the third waldorf school, we moved because of my job. The waldorf education…read moreis always special, wherever you are. But I can say, we are happy to be part of WSOC now. My daughter is now in 3rd grade and loves her teachers, wenn she comes home, she often even plays, that she is a teacher and repeats with her puppets what she did and learned in the school. Although she had a hard time with divorce between me and her mother, the school gave her stability, joy and purpose. If you want to have a good experience and best results with any waldorf school, it's necessary to understand it's core principles and foundation and cooperate with that. It's hundert years approved pedagogy with great results in the whole world, but it needs cooperation. I am grateful and happy, that my daughter can be educated in WSOC!

Many of the teachers are amazing. My child was blessed to travel the grades with Brooke Natzke and that experience was amazing. I can't recommend a more qualified person. My are having a great experience with Mrs Schwarz in the grades now for our next child. Our daughter is attending Waldorf High School and has found many of the teachers to be very supportive and helpful. She found her passion because of the championing of her Earth Science Teacher.

Year 4 update. I…read morejust saw a 1 star review by a Texas based user about an imaginary vice principal named "Ms Luethfold" and I am pretty sure they got the wrong business - there apparently are a ton of early college high schools out there. don't believe me? try registering for college tours - the list is longer then the screen can fit! back to real update. besides all the accolades the school is winning lately, as a parent, i have to stress the self selection aspect and systems they have in place at this school. at this point you can replace the entire admin and teachings staff - and they are at 90%+ rate doing extraordinary job with the 10%- doing an adequate job - and the system will continue working. these small systemic social interventions - also known as "the culture" are self-reinforcing. as my "soon to be college bound" kid observed: i don't know dad but lots of seniors somehow got into hyper selective schools like UCLA and UCI last year. ate there problems? yeah! thats the point! no plan survives the first contact with the enemy. as a parent, what i liked is that they really try their best to work with you and your kid to achieve best possible outcomes for your kid. in retrospect, enrolling our kid was the best decision we made for our kid in a long time.

The class sizes are small and the teachers are excellent. One of the most impressive aspects about ECHS is that the students start college prep in their freshman year giving them the tool for success. My student attended ECHS and it was the perfect fit for him. The best thing you can do is check the school out in person. Talk with the staff. Talk with the teachers. You'll be more than impressed with the entire program.

CdM is a great school with great amenities, courses, clubs, teachers, and amazing students. I have…read morebeen here since 7th grade for 3 years and the school has far exceeded my expectations, and I enjoy every day I'm here. There are some bad things about it, but it's overall a decent school. The problems have become much less significant over time, and are over-exaggerated and drummed up by the media to grab people's attention and get more views, but these stereotypes hold little actual ground. It's impulsive for us to just slap a label on a place or group of people, but it isn't as simple as black and white. It's important to recognize that stereotypes are often exploited by people who've had no experience in a place to just assume everyone's a certain way, without trying to understand and empathize. At CdM, there is little prejudice and is usually subtle and unintended. The academic environment can be stressful, but you have the choice of taking more advanced classes. If parents are forcing their kids to get really good grades and take challenging courses, that's a parental issue. If a teacher is unhelpful, others are always willing to help. Many of the negative reviews stem from misunderstanding, as parents are prone to just taking their kid's word when they have a complaint rather than assessing the full situation, and this lack of understanding leads to further escalation of the situations. For a new student, there will always be potential friends. Many kids at CdM were negatively influenced, but that's because they didn't choose good friends. While there are many entitled and troublesome kids, the overwhelming majority are kind, humble, and respectful; it's just about avoiding the minority of bad students. For most of my time at CdM, I was shy and never had much of a friend group; yet other kids have always made to effort to be kind to me when they could have stayed comfortable with their own friends. Most students have been quick to forgive me and move on after I changed for the better even if I had done something bad in the past. Most kids won't peer pressure you if you say no to something. Your school experience is what you make it and how you perceive things, and you can make good choices. The problem is that a lot of people get dissatisfied even because of minor things. THIS is the entitlement in CdM people complain about: the ones who can't take any shit and who have no gratitude. It's the ones who care about CdM and try to make it a better place that love CdM because the other students respect and appreciate them. If you come into CdM with an open mind, a kind personality, and a drive to succeed and make friends, the rest will already be taken care of. You know the negative reviews are due to entitlement because it's always the parents that are doing the dirty work for their kids when as students, they should take control of their academic experience. It doesn't make you look good as a parent to be the one bailing out your kid by contacting a teacher. It's the inconsiderate students that want to leave CdM. These people are troublemakers. They are surrounded by their ego and have no idea that they're pissing everyone off, and their parents who only see one side of the story assume that CdM is a horrible school after hearing their kid nonstop complain and they move their kid to another school to cause more trouble. I was once one of these obnoxious kids, but I recognized that my actions were unappreciated by others and have changed since then. Kids who I once annoyed now respect me, a testament to the forgiveness of CdM students. The school has issues with parent cliques, and the administration does have some issues with inefficiency and management, just like any other school, but as a student, the most important thing is to be able to go to school every day and just be yourself and to be surrounded by respectful students and teachers, not whether the school decides how often the bathrooms are cleaned. Your main interactions with the administration will be regarding attendance or course changes, which it's really efficient at. Why wouldn't you give CdM a chance? In the small chance you don't like it, there's little risk in transferring. People move from CdM to other local private schools or vice versa all the time, and they can still keep their friends because they live in the same area; but if you do like it, you'll save a ton on tuition, and that money can be better used on other things to further develop your child's interest and to ensure future success, or even just for enjoyment. I kept this review brief to address the general issues. If you want to know something more specific about CdM, you can email me at wynneyoung555@yahoo.com or text me at (949)375-0086, but don't call me because I don't take calls from unknown numbers.Here's why many of the points made in other reviews are wrong: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DxEqbhM7_oP2kjPJT8EhDTro5y5afy0m9LM7c4KwO-4/edit?usp=sharing

Her having Mr Mike Hurley mentoring and being skilled in showing care , emphatic ways of helping her in her learning was so noticeable in my granddaughter..

Her confidence expanded in learning . Plus there was no fear in her and seen greatly due to his ways how he taught and showed great concern daily .. Thank you for this blessing for not only my granddaughter but other students leaving Davis spreading their wings for life's accomplishments...‍‍

I thought that I won the school lottery because my son was accepted into kindergarten…read more Unfortunately this school was not all it was "quacked "up to be. After only two weeks of attendance my son was exhausted from too much sun exposure. They have these poor children sitting on the hot black top for too long. They don't watch the young kids at recess or lunch. My son got hurt and nobody had any answers. His teacher did not even notice that he was limping around. Talk about not paying any attention. My son had a terrible time trying to adjust and find his own way around because there was no real supervision. Where was the patience and guidance? They alienated my boy when he just needed some time to regulate his emotions. I do not recommend this school at all.
