I can't imagine a kinder, more gentle group of education professionals than those at Shreiner Academy. They are wonderful people who care about the education of kids as much as they do the kids mental and physical health. They just love kids.

Truly a family environment where each child is treated as an individual. Love the special programs and field trips-- they really add to what's going on in the classroom.

Seemed like a 'family' type atmosphere where children get a lot of specialized attention...but remember that sometimes small does not equate to lots of individual attention but rather to a lack of resources. The children do go on field trips and have the opportunity to take Spanish classes. But there

I have heard better things about the pre-school level, but the 2nd grade level did not meet my expectations. I experienced an unattentive and uncaring teacher and administrators that turned a blind eye. This was not at all what I would expect for the money that was paid. I would advise other parents to be cautious at the higher grade levels. Read less

Hello, I have been going to Shreiner Academy for 10 years now, and even though I have had some rough times at Shreiner Academy, it really isn't all that bad. Yes, there is no extra actives, but my friends and I still have recess at 8th grade, which is a nice 15 minute break. Overall, Shreiner is a very

However, the curriculum was not as accelerated as promised (difficult to call it that when the kids do not use computers regularly). Books were not sent home to allow

My son attended from 2K through half of the 2nd grade. Preschool was a good alternative to daycare but once he got older (2nd grade) the teachers were very unresponsive - too much homework and not very much help.

My daughter has been attending preschool here since Dec 2007. She has made serious progress here. Her handwriting, phonics, and surprisingly spelling of many words is far beyond many of her friends. She loves books and leaning more than ever, it s wonderful and I am thoroughly impressed by the curriculum.

I do wish communication was done over email vs paper handouts and that the administrative staff not assume parents are equipped with knowledge about the schools logistics (e.g where to drop my kid off at different times.) A first day tour plus info about their schedule and lunches would be really, really nice. I floundered for several days in the beginning. But these are my own preferences, which are insignificant really since she is learning at such an advanced level now. Read less
