Class of '95 here…read more What can I say about this place? A decade plus removed from it, I don't keep in touch with many of the people, though not for their own fault or mine. I value the education I got here tremendously - from Mr Duffany's excruciating but valuable sentence diagram the the late Señor Laserna's Spanish, which lasts with me still. I loved rowing crew and Doc Kinney's art class/introspective therapy sessions, could have done without some of the cookie-cutter jackasses and senses of entitlement. But all in all it was a good school for the area, one I think of with mostly fond memories, and I wish only the best for this place.

Out of all of the excellent area schools, both private and public, we chose Friends School…read moreHaverford (FSH). Initially, we were drawn to the play-centered learning approach for the younger children, however, there was so much more from which to benefit. The teachers and staff consider the whole child, their social, emotional, and intellectual development. Guided by Quaker principles, the community is at the heart of its mission. The children are taught to discover and appreciate the uniqueness of themselves and others. I always feel informed with weekly updates, class newsletters, and monthly breakfast meetings with the principal. Lower student-teacher ratios increase children's engagement and allow for individual needs to be more easily met at FSH. Hearing my child say he loves school is the way it should be for all kids!

We have been apart of the Friends School Haverford Community since 2018. Our son joined FSH in the…read more2nd grade. Over the last four years we have witnessed his growth both academically and socially. The relationships that he has developed with the teachers, staff and his classmates has help to mold him into a kind, intelligent funny kid. As parents we too have developed long standing friendships with the parents of FSH. FSH not only poured into our sons life but ours as well. The Griers

In 10th grade I had my son take the SAT to see where he was at so that I could determine what help…read morehe needed. I was not happy with his score to say the least. In came Anthony Weinkopff who tutored my son and helped him to raise his score over 300 points by his junior year!! Mr. Weinkopff was patient with my son, who has a hard time concentrating for long periods. In addition, to the academics, he taught him concentration techniques, which was key to his success. My son placed in the 98 percentile nationally on the October PSAT and got the similar score on his November SATs! Thank you Mr. Weinkopff, you deserve an A+. Natasha S.

Mathnasium is great. Greg and his instructors make math fun for the kids to the point where they…read moredon't want to leave when it comes time to pick them up. Atmosphere is bright, clean and relaxing with mellow tunes in the background that act more like white noise to help concentration. They are open after school and on weekends so there's always time to fit in a math session. And the location is super convenient with plenty of parking. Highly recommended for any child who needs more practice with math to build up their confidence and speed in problem solving, and especially those that are too timid to ask questions in class.

After evaluating many schools, we found MLCA to be the right fit for our child. With a focus on…read moreFrench fluency, classical literature, music (piano and violin), and hands on nature and science skills - the school can be a great fit for certain children. Note the school is relatively small and does not have sports outside of gym class. If you think a "liberal arts college for kids" makes sense, this could be the place for your child.

We feel truly blessed to have found MLCA! When researching…read moreschools, what stood out right away was the clarity of its priorities: real content, meaningful learning, and a rigorous, rich curriculum delivered in a way that's age-appropriate and joyful. For years, we've happily driven our daughter all the way from the city so she could attend, because it felt too important not to make it work.MLCA students' mastery across diverse subjects such as history, math, French, art history, and piano is truly impressive for children of their age. But just as striking is the wholesome, grounded atmosphere in which kids can be kids, treat one another with kindness, and learn without unhealthy competition. "Classical" at MLCA feels welcoming rather than stiff, with families bringing different perspectives while sharing a commitment to serious learning. I especially think MLCA can be a great fit for expat families who are looking for a curriculum more similar to that of European schools and who would like their kids to be challenge without any of the unhealthy competition an obsession over test scores.
