This is our son's first year at Archway and the transition has been excellent for him. He has definitely benefited from the small class size, the adaptable teaching approach and the hands-on environment. He comes home excited about learning and has gained more confidence in his academic skills - whi
Posted by a parent on 2/10/2014Archway is an extraordinary small school in North Berkeley. My son has been inspired and excited by his classes and his teachers (who are rock stars, every one). They really understand middle school kids here, and know how to keep them engaged and learning (no easy task). We are particularly pleased
Posted by a parent on 2/9/2014Archway is simply an amazing school. We transferred our daughter to Archway from our (good) local public school in 6th grade, where she had been receiving little individualized attention, the teaching was uninspired, and where we frequently felt that because she was quiet and well-behaved, she got l
Posted by a parent on 2/6/2014I have had two children at Archway School; very different kids but Archway has been great for both of them. One had specific learning challenges and the other did not. Since classes are small (under 16) the teachers focus on knowing each child individually and teach to their strengths and weaknesses
Posted by a parent on 1/29/2014Archway is like no other middle school in the area. The very small class size creates am close relationships; teachers REALLY know your child.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy son is in his second year at this school. Because his birthday falls later in the year, he is repeating one more year of Pre-K 2, which means some of the themes are repeated (they have 5-6 different themes each year for different age group). What pleasantly surprised me is that even though the themes are the same, most of the content is updated each year. This means he is still learning new knowledge and participating in new activities.I also truly appreciate the teachers’ sense of responsibility, not only in academics, but also in caring for the children’s daily lives. Every day when I pick him up, he is happy and often doesn’t want to leave, which says a lot about his experience at school. The teachers are also very communicative and proactively share updates about his day. Both the lead teachers and assistant teachers know each child very well, which gives me great peace of mind.We feel very reassured and grateful.Parent Review1mo ago
