My son has been at Evergreen for four years and my daughter for two years. I have seen a large turnover in teachers every year and it has been difficult for my children, but necessary for the evolving school. The teachers are great, the administration could be more friendly, but it is improving. Test

I am both a teacher and a parent at Evergreen School. As a teacher, I have never been around such a dedicated and awesome staff! From the principal to the custodian, we all appreciate and learn from each other. As a parent, I am thrilled to have my children at ECCS. They are constantly challenged

My children are in the elementary grades at ECCS. This is our 3rd year and we have had a wonderful experience thus far! The teachers are exceptional, being able to aptly work with both accelerated learners and those with challenges. Evergreen's focus on hands on learning and environmental education &

responsibility is another key area we appreciate. ECCS is in it's 6th year- therefore it has a ways to go in realizing it's mission and vision- needs foreign language classes, more arts, etc- but the school has a good start- my daughter was in 3 musicals last year in her 2nd grade class! It depends upon the teacher. The children really do become responsible learners and being an ELOB Outward Bound School, the children learn about integrity, challenging themselves, being good stewards & citizens, etc. WE LOVE EVERGREEN! There is a requirement for parent involvement- and we also really like that. Read less

My children have been attending Evergreen for some time now, my daughter usually scores 4's on her E.O.G.'S, my son scores high too.

the E.O.C.'s (end of courses). The 8th grade social studies and language arts classes are wonderful, the students learn at the rate of a 10th grade honors class, this came from the mouth of a 10th grader. Even the 'challenged' students keep up and do good. If your child has problems with anger or doesn't try, i would not reccomend this school. But if your child just has a 'road block' in front of him or her, send them, the special services are great. This school has prepared my children for highschool in a way that A.M.S. cant match.
