Deans Corner

I’m so grateful we heard about Longview 2 years ago. At the time, my daughter was just beginning middle school at our local public school and it was not going well. She was experiencing intense anxiety about how peers were evaluating her appearance and began refusing to go to school. Six months into reluctant homeschooling, I saw a social media post about Longview and brought my daughter for a visit. After touring, she asked me “can i go here? I really want to go to school here.” Now she’s in 8th grade and loves going to school, where, on any given day, she makes an elaborate costume of the Lorax, learns geometry in a class with only 2 other students, and works with everyone else at Longview- from the youngest student to the director, who is so dedicated, kind and good at what she does-to help run the school democratically. It’s a really special place.
