Read what parents are saying about The Walden SchoolMy daughter has had a wonderful experience at Walden. She started in the pre-K program at 3 and is now a first-grader. All of her teachers have shown amazing patience and a true desire to know my daughter as a person, including attention to her specific learning style. Manageable class sizes allow an individualized approach to education that really supports children academically. In addition, the teachers and entire staff promote social and emotional learning that helps students to become thoughtful community members. As parents, we originally planned to have our daughter attend preschool at Walden and then take advantage of our district's strong public schools; however, we're now hooked and couldn't imagine leaving!
Posted by a parent on 3/28/2024Our family started at Walden in 2021 after making a big move from the West Coast. We instantly felt a connection with the Walden community because of their dedication to nurturing the WHOLE child…mind, body and spirit. Our youngest is now in his last year of Pre-K and it’s a bittersweet moment for us to leave such a dedicated, nurturing, generous and highly skilled group of teachers (and administrators). We have watched Walden grow into such a multidimensional school; now offering so many pertinent and powerful classes for parents, too! Any parent that wants their child to thrive and also be celebrated for unique gifts should 100% send their child to Walden!
Posted by a parent on 3/24/2024My two kids have loved it flourished at Walden! They feel loved and are able to be their expressive self in ways they couldn’t in other schools. We love and appreciate what Walden has done!!
Posted by a parent on 3/21/2024My daughter has been at Walden in their pre-k program, and I cannot say enough about how wonderful the experience has been for both her and for me. My daughter has some delay issues, and she was nurtured, loved, and given the academic and personal attention she needed to thrive at Walden. Her progress has been amazing. Everyone knows her by name, and she absolutely loves her classmates and teachers and going to school! Her teachers are fantastic, and she was able to receive the special services she needed at the school which made it easier for me as a working mom. The staff have always had great and open communication with me and have gone above and beyond, which I know has contributed to my daughter's progress. If you want to know your child is receiving a great education both academic and social and is truly loved and cared for, go to Walden. I highly recommend this school!
Posted by a parent on 3/9/2024It’s been 9 years. For the past 9 years, at least one of my two boys have spent their day at this amazing place. They were loved, supported, encouraged, inspired, and challenged. I only have a couple more weeks of dropping off my son bc next year he moves on to middle school. Just like his older brother, he’s set up for success. He is curious, motivated, compassionate, aware, and ready. And the teachers at walden made that possible. I love the teachers my boys have had. My oldest is now in advanced math as a freshman, so caring and driven. We never need to challenge him to do his homework bc he learned skills at walden to embrace learning. I am so grateful to their Walden teachers. They made lifelong friends and I feel so lucky we found this school.

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIf you are looking to send your kids here, keep looking. They can’t keep the school open. They blame Covid but it’s because they don’t have enough teachers and staff. Other schools in the area have not closed. They are also mask crazy.

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHaving my kids attend SRV was by far one of the greatest decisions my husband and I could have ever made. They take such great care to treat each child as an individual and encouraged them to be themselves. They are taught how to respect themselves and others and be leaders amongst their peers and in their communities. They receive, not only an amazing STEAM education, but also the life and social emotional skills needed to succeed in everyday life. Everyone knows everyone and the teachers and staff all genuinely care for each student and want to help them excel. My daughter wakes up each day excited to go to school and can’t wait to share all that she had learned each evening when she returns home. SRV is a great school that I whole heartedly recommend!Parent Review1y ago
