NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy children are very happy at this school and I think that speaks more than my thoughts as a parent. However, I also am very pleased with the school - from the approachability of the principal, to the extra circular programs - winter skiing, Lego robotics, urban art and the list goes on. Fayston's ranking as the number one school, based on testing in mathematics and reading, speaks to it's academic quality.Parent Review12y ago - Harwood Uhsd #19

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy son is now in 2nd grade at Moretown Elementary School. He began his enrollment in Pre-K. Moretown has been a extraordinary learning experience and environment for him. The student teacher ratio is low. He gets fantastic individualized attention and support. He has a wonderful close knit group of friends in the community. He is learning French as a second language. We visit nearby Quebec Canada often. He participates in many after school activities. They have an after school and before school program available. He participates in Lego Club. They have a strong Art & Music program. Also, math, social studies, reading. He participates in Cub Scouts, nearby skiing at Sugarbush. A great community, great school, I cannot praise Moretown Elementary School and Moretown enough.Parent Review12y ago - Waitsfield Elementary School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy children graduated from Warren Elementary School 2009 and 2011. It is an extraordinary public elementary school. There is a tremendous sense of community and the needs of the children are the top priority of the school. The teachers are fantastic and manage to challenge all abilities in a fun and instructive manner. The principal is extraordinary. he is retiring but he has created an amazing culture that will hopefully continue indefinitely. Claire's lunches are amazing - her commitment to local and healthy food sets a high standard - and the children love the meals. My children were lucky to have attended this school and I hope the commitment to education and community stays with them,Parent Review14y ago
