Sackville

As a parent of two children currently attending preschool and kindergarten at Media Providence Friends School, I couldn’t be happier with our experience. From the very beginning, the small class sizes have made such a meaningful difference by allowing the teachers to truly know and nurture each child as an individual.The Quaker values are beautifully woven into the school culture, creating a peaceful, respectful, and inclusive environment. I also love how much parents are encouraged to be involved, whether it’s joining Meeting for Worship on Wednesdays, serving as a guest reader, or participating in special events and classroom activities throughout the year. It really feels like a community.The teachers are incredible. They are gentle in their guidance, creative in their teaching, and deeply attentive to each child’s needs. The communication I receive about my children’s days is thoughtful and detailed, often including sweet photos and stories that show what and how they’re learning.What stands out most to me is that my children are not only learning *what* to learn but *how* to learn in ways that suit their unique styles. The curriculum is developmentally appropriate, yet still challenging in creative, artistic, and engaging ways. Most importantly, my kids genuinely look forward to going to school each day and see learning as something joyful.Media Providence Friends School has truly been a gift to our family.

This is a school that truly knows each and every child who attends. Faculty are deeply committed to the mission of the school and provide a nurturing and challenging school experience for students. Beautiful campus with opportunities for outdoor play every day. Thoughtful parent community at all grade levels. Our kids developed a love of reading from a young age and still cherish their years at the School in Rose Valley.
