This is my son's second year at the Quincy Elementary School and I continue to be more and more impressed with it. The school administration goes over and above to create a compassionate student body and the students pride themselves on their ability to portray the school wide F.I.R.E. values - Focu
Posted by a community member on 10/6/2017My sister is a student of this school and I would just like to say that I think she could do better in another school. Everyday she comes home with homework she either doesn't know how to do it or is poorly finishing. She is in the second grade currently and I the brother has to put up with helping

Posted by a parent on 9/17/2014My wife and I are parents of a K2 student now at the JQS, and we couldn't be happier. Our son had been in Montessori pre-school programs, and we were concerned with how he would handle the transition. In short, the experience has been great. The facilities and programs at the JQS are excellent. We'v

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis is the worst i have ever experienced in a learning environement. They have allowed other kids to beat my daughter without giving her any support. If you are looking for a school for your kids to feel unsafe be my guest and let your kids go there.Parent Review1mo ago - Hurley K-8 School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe Advent School was at the top of our list for schools we were considering. The positive experiences we've had over the years have been better than we could have even imagined. Between the co-teaching model in each classroom, all of the learning specialists, specials teachers, and more, it feels like our kids are getting as close as you can get to an individually tailored learning experience. Every aspect of the school day is carefully planned and thought out - the approaches for teaching core academic subjects, the R&I (research and investigation) topics that teach kids to be critical thinkers, learners, and advocates, and the specials/extracurriculars that our kids rave about mean our kids love their school days. We're so grateful that our kids are getting such an amazing experience in these early elementary years.Parent Review5mo ago - Park Street School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageKingsley is truly an extraordinary school. I have never been to a place where teachers guide and support the children so well while also allowing them to take the lead in their learning. Because the classrooms are mixed-age, I feel it mimics real-life scenarios where you work with people of varied ages. I love seeing the older students mentoring the younger ones and the younger ones looking up to the older ones. The communication is spot-on and I always feel informed about events at the school, deadlines, etc. I think the last two-plus years have been tough on all schools, but the way I have seen the Kingsley community come together to support one another has been extraordinary. From the administration to the teachers to the parents to the students themselves, Kingsley has navigated the pandemic and all the changes in a professional, caring way. I feel thankful my child is able to have this learning and community experience.Parent Review4y ago
