Unless your child fits their idea of a “perfect” student, this school will make it clear that they don’t care about you or your child. The front office staff is by far the worst part — unprofessional, rude, and openly judgmental. They’ve made inappropriate comments to students and even gossiped abou

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI have two children at this school who are high performers. The curriculum is well-organized and there are many good teachers at the school. The students that aren't engaged are a constant distraction and discipline is poor and ineffective. My children come home everyday complaining about it. It is a mixed culture of kind and respectful students and very disrespectful, undisciplined students.

The students to teacher ratio is closer to 1:30, not 1:20 as they claim.Parent Review2y ago - Esmond Station School
