I have two children at this school. Beware of the principal. She's quite arrogant and somewhat militant. The teachers are good but if you have to deal with the principal - good luck. No one wants to complain about her because they feel they may face retribution. She is unfriendly and arrogant. The school needs fresh ideas and it maybe time for a change at that position. She is not a nurturing person and it's surprising that she is in that position. It's unfortunate because the school itself is really nice as long as you don't have to deal with the administration. She has created a cold atmosphere that can be felt when you walk into her office.

It was an amazing school. My daughter just did her kindergarten and she loved it

I love this school. My girls are thriving and they’re happy. The Principal interacts with all the children on a daily basis and makes each and every one of them feel important. The teachers are fantastic. I couldn’t have made a better choice moving to this school district!

I am so sad. Look up the American Boy Choir School and four other independent schools in the state and what they did to do everything to save it instead of treating it like a hedge fund. Trustees equal zero governance at a place that CB built. Nice Job

My son has been going to this school since he was 2 1/2. Hes going on 5 now. My son was making little progress at home since his brother is limited in verbal skills with autism. So i knew I needed to immerse him amongst peers developing as he was.I sought this school out even though its half hour away. I did not want him attending a sterile and overly structured school like goddard. This was my personal decision for him. Best choice I made.They helped him potty train in ways I couldn't at home. They helped him learn to read, count, figure time and dates. He has learned and come such a long way. Its on a farm so the kids have endless room to run. They bring the kids out as much as possible, even get to play in snowsuits in winter. So much for them to do and learn. Owner, Sue, is so kind and helpful and has worked with me on so much with accommodating him. He will begin Kindergarten in our district in the fall. That will be 3 years he was there. He will be far ahead of kids academically once he begins. He even learned Mandarin at the school. Best decision we made sending him here. The ride driving him can be a lot at times with two working parents, but its far worth it!
