What a wonderful high school for girls grades 9-12. Great mix of day students from the…read moreWinston-Salem and surrounding areas - as well as those boarding at the school from NC and throughout the country. This is a "must visit" program that develops young women into leaders and scholars with a love of learning. Strong college preparatory academics with outstanding faculty who really care about the students. Small class sizes, individual attention, classes for college credit from adjacent Salem College, and a true family environment that is cultivated within the study body. Make sure to visit with your daughter before that final decision about where her high school experience will be most memorable and productive!

We were thrilled when our younger one got picked from the lottery to enroll in this charter school,…read moreand we were really excited when our older one got picked as well (they give preference to siblings attending the same school). My kids have made friends and seem to like it here. There isn't bus service, but I would have had to drive and pick my kids up either way due to bus driver shortages. This is a small school, and the faculty know everyone and their kids here, which is refreshing compared to a larger school. They also don't give homework, which my kids and I love not having that eat up our afternoons for no reason. They claim to teach a regular curriculum but with an artsy twist, making the learning fun and engaging. As far as how much they actually live up to that claim, my older one indicates that they tend to be lacking in that department. Still, I think we prefer it here to your standard public school.

I have 2 children enrolled currently at Arts Based Schools - both in elementary. I could not be…read morehappier with my choice. As a parent, I love the idea of an art-incorporated curriculum. The idea is to teach them lessons not only through words, but also visual, audio, and even performance lessons. Dance class is the dance of the molecules. While the current science lesson would be the phases of matter. Plenty of overlap and reinforcement. My kids LOVE it there. They dont notice the lack of a traditional gymnasium. Teachers are all very nice. Tutoring and special assistance is available for kids that need it. And the parent community is very invovled - and non judgy... because most of us are artists. All these reasons are why I have a third child starting there in the fall.
