14 Parent Reviews for Oregon Episcopal School

OES lacks structure, safety and fundamental foundation. The school has been an extreme disappointment to many for years and others are just beginning to see the light. Hopefully once a new Headmaster is hired the environment will shift, but for now it s unstable, at best.

OES is a wonderful environment for many types of children. There are many reasons to love OES. The community is accepting, diverse and vibrant. The view I share is one that I know many people share. Not only is the campus very impressive but the faculty/staff are intellegent and professional.

I truly expected more. I wanted an educational expeirence that would drive me further. My parents and I wish we had chosen a public school.

Words cannot describe how far this school has fallen. If you are considering this school, I suggest you look elsewhere; I wish I had. The academics in the lower school are so weak. The basics are neglected.

Much like the last comment, we have been at OES for 9 years (since kindergarten) and this is our last year. Our son has NOT been challenged academically, the faculty & staff do not take time to get to know the students, therefore he has been bored year after year. Coupled with lack of safety and inconsistent ...  Read more

We have been in the Lower School at OES for five years (starting in kindergarten) and will leave for public school next year. We have been hugely disappointed with the lack of rigor and attention to solid academic curriculae. With so many 'extras' (quilting, musicals, buddy classes, etc.), we have ...  Read more

As a former parent of two sons who graduated from OES and who are now leading successful and independent lives, I must give this school the highest rating. The intellectual challenge that OES offered and the constant support during their 4 years there, have prepared them well for the world. I'm very ...  Read more

To correct this 6/7/07 review by another parent, the annual Lower School Teacher appreciation luncheon was not cancelled. It was changed to a time frame in the after school hours, not during the school day. Having the luncheon during school meant the school needed far too many parental volunteers to ...  Read more

I currently am attending the OES Upper School. My experience to this point has actually been lower than I expected. I believe that I could have learned the same material at any public school. However, OES is very good at making one a better writer in one's freshman year. The kids are nice and inviting ...  Read more

I am a student at the OES Middle School, and I do not like it. The kids are mean and snobby, and the teachers turn their backs to this behavior. I will be glad to go to a different high school this next year. Though OES has a good academic program, some kids tease others if they do not get into the high ...  Read more
