Posted by a parent on 5/20/2021My child has an IEP and Shades has been great to work with and help them excel. I really appreciate their willingness to work with parents and help each child.
Posted by a parent on 4/23/2021Very impressed. My kids spent two years at this place, and they loved the school, teachers, and their friends.
Posted by a parent on 3/31/2020Shades Mountain is a wonderful school, my daughter loves it and is learning so much.
Posted by a parent on 10/20/2017SMES is a fantastic hidden jewel within the Hoover school system. I have three children currently attending SMES, and we could not be more pleased. With less than 400 students, the facilities (including a beautiful new gym, neighborhood park, and awesome nature trail) are spectacular. The teachers a

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHall Kent has recently forced teachers out of their jobs/forced teachers to resign without any explanation for the administration’s actions and without complaints from fellow teachers. I would not support a school that won’t support teachers.Other Review4y ago - Southminster Day School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSDS is a great school full of great teachers and a wonderful director who cares about every student in the school. SDS gives opportunities to kids practicing public speaking, leadership, reading and summarizing / writing reports, geography, Saxon math (great choice). Weekly they have small projects to return. And the best part that kids are writing cursive every project they return, so they know how to use / hold pencil in their hands (and you hear from parent who has a corporate job and using laptop all day long).SDS is a big family! Great school!Parent Review2mo ago - Heritage Christian Academy
