Sherwood Forest

If you’re looking for a place to DESTROY creativity and crush dreams, this school is perfect for your children!

As a former student I can Mars Hill is too far behind academically in math and science to prepare students for the ACT or college. Also, the staff and students expect you to conform to their church of christ religious standards. They have radical conservative views on women. The girls were shown a video in high school were college aged boys talked about how they would never marry a women who wasn't a virgin. They then passed around a purity contract and all the girls that signed it were put on a board outside the office. The boys harassed the girls that did not sign. As an adult, I know this was an emotionally abusive tactic and would be outraged if my daughter was treated this way.

My daughter was being bullied relentlessly at a public school. After many meetings with her teachers and the vice-principal, I decided to pull her out and try Riverhill School. I was immediately impressed by the size of the school and how kind the entire staff is. But, once she settled in to second grade, I was seeing the confidence my child once had start to come back. She is now excited about going to school for learning and seeing her friends. Bullying is not tolerated in the least. But, it’s so much more than that. Riverhill School has the feeling of Family. I know my child is loved and that means everything to me.
