Peabody School

My son has been at Banneker for 3 years now and they never cease to amaze me! They are absolutely wonderful!!

I am an 8th grade student at this school and I would not recommend bringing ur student here I’ve heard better things about other schools than this one teachers will give you a work sheet barely explain and expect you to do it and if you don’t know how then you have to figure it out on ur own there’s been 2 physical fights at this school and a lot of verbal fights and nothing is done there only solution is to call home and that’s it I’ve been here since pre-k and nothings changed since then

A Wonderful Experience at Baldwin SchoolThe Baldwin School has been a home for our family and an incredible place for our sons to learn and grow. Our oldest started in kindergarten, continued remotely in first grade, and returned in third through fifth grade—and throughout the years, Baldwin has been nothing short of amazing.We believe Baldwin is the best place for our son, who has mild autism, and we are truly going to miss it. The teachers and staff have helped him build confidence, develop socially, and excel academically. In fact, he received a recognition letter from the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education for achieving one of the highest Grade 3 MCAS scores in the state that year. In Grade 4, he earned a perfect math score on the MCAS—one of just 55 students out of 67,000 to accomplish this. His kindergarten, second, third, fourth, and fifth-grade teachers were especially remarkable in bringing out the best in him.One of the things that makes Baldwin truly special is the dedicated team of education experts who have worked to ensure our son had the support he needed to succeed. Over time, as he grew and gained confidence, those supports were slowly peeled away, allowing him to become more independent while still thriving.We also want to give special recognition to one incredible teacher who ran an economy system in her classroom and went above and beyond to make sure our son felt included, happy, and engaged. Her thoughtful approach helped him build confidence in social interactions and classroom participation, and it meant the world to us and our son. And all Baldwin teachers were excellent!Beyond the classroom, Baldwin fosters a strong community. The administration, led by Ms. Heidi, is solid—things run smoothly, communication is clear, and the school is well-organized. The Friends of Baldwin (PTA) creates so many wonderful experiences for families, from STEM days and bake sales to ski trips, math game nights, and family fun runs. One of our favorite memories was organizing a kimbap party for our child’s class, a reflection of the inclusive and welcoming environment Baldwin cultivates.We are sad that our oldest is graduating but thrilled that our youngest still has grades 2-5 ahead at Baldwin! We feel incredibly lucky to continue being part of this amazing school community.Thank you, Baldwin School, for everything!
