for her life. the is also a major component of the curriculum that also includes community service which I feel is vital to a child's personal growth. The Administration under the leadership of Dr. Larry Dougherty proves that the original four fold plan as layed out as a foundation of Dr. Isabel Buckley is still a vital woven fabric of The Buckley School. The children and their families are wonderful . They are down to earth and really care about the school that they attend. When our daughter came into The buckley School as a new student, she was immediately embraced and welecomed into her new school by her seventh grade class of both new and currently enrolled students who have had their roots there since Kindergarten. The Buckely School has a spirited Physical Education program that encourages all abilities to participate during the seasons of sports.The Performing Arts program is outstanding.Students have an opportunities to express themselves in theatre, orchestra, band by performing in both school and out in the community throughout the year. The Buckley School is a thriving school of 75 years. I highly recommend this school for families to place at the top of their list for the future of their children . The Buckley School is the future!
