This school is easily the best because it’s one of the few places that actually treats you like a person. The energy here is just different it’s not a stressed-out or fake environment; it’s a place where the teachers actually have your back and the community is real. You can tell the people running the building know what they’re doing because the day-to-day vibe is always solid and respectful. It’s the kind of school where you can actually find your lane and enjoy the time you spend here. If you’re looking for a spot that values its students and has a culture you actually want to be a part of, this is the only choice.

Strong and engaged principal, caring teachers, involved parents and a diverse student body.

My child attended Rowayton School for six years, and I can’t speak highly enough of this wonderful school! The teachers, support staff, and administration go above and beyond to create a warm and welcoming environment for every student.The diverse student community is filled with amazing kids and supportive families who are committed to ensuring teachers and students have the resources they need. Advanced learners are challenged and encouraged to go beyond the standard curriculum, while students with special needs are lovingly embraced in classrooms by both peers and staff.Opportunities for enrichment extend beyond the school day through the “After-the-Bell” and Rowayton Academy programs. Children can explore chess, languages, coding, yoga, advanced math, and more in these engaging sessions.The PTA and families work tirelessly throughout the year to strengthen the school community, offering countless opportunities for parents and caregivers to get involved and build lasting relationships for both children and families.I wholeheartedly recommend Rowayton School without hesitation—it will always hold a special place in our hearts!
