Peytonsville

Most of the staff at Page are kind and friendly. There are some exceptions, but good experiences with most. The students are generally kind. No issues there. The problem at Page is the academic rigor. Staff treat students like they’re in college. I have two college degrees and the workload they give students at Page is way beyond what I experienced in college. They also teach extremely fast-paced. Students are expected to retain what is taught with little time to practice or review. My child was so stressed they were physically ill. This site also says it’s a 16:1 student ratio. It’s actually more like 30:1. I don’t recommend this school for students with learning differences. It’s too fast-paced and overwhelming. There is a huge emphasis on “meeting the standards” testing. I saw very little concern that students were learning the material and more concern that they were testing well and moving on quickly. If your child is a high performer, advanced, and loves to move quickly this school may be a good fit. If your student is pretty average this school will be a huge challenge. If your student struggles, this school will feel impossible. Our child was so stressed and underserved that we decided to do private school instead. Private school is a much better academic experience where my child can actually spend time on the subject matter and learn it, not just test and move on.
