My daughter attended Parkview school for two months during her kindergarten year. Those short two months exceeded my expectations by far and was very impressed by her teacher’s nurturing nature as well as the expansive material covered over the two months. The transition to my daughters new school, a blue ribbon school, was thankfully very smooth and successful which from my perspective is indicative Milltown’s curriculum is in line and at par with other blue ribbon recognized schools.

"We love Milltown. There is an awesome sense of community and hometown pride. Neighbors really care about their neighbors. The schools are great. The 4th of July celebration is the best in the state. We just love the small town charm mixed with the convenience of a central Jersey location. It is really the best of both worlds."
