Concord Children's Center #1

I've had 3 out of 4 kids attend this school. 2 of the 3 received IEPs that they likely would not have received at other schools. As a result, all my kids have flourished at Thoreau. The teachers, assistants, staff, and administration are all wonderful and truly care about your kids. Test scores are secondary, even though they are quite good as well. Teachers and staff want what is best for your kids and are willing to help your kids get to the next level. We have loved every teacher we've had so far and hope that continues. We've had experiences at other elementary schools that have not been nearly as positive so Thoreau is a pleasant change for us.

We’ve had children attend Willard Elementary for five years . This is a wonderful, warm environment that supports students in every way; social/emotional development and academics. They have an amazing reading progress team that will seek out areas of weakness and support students in small groups that may otherwise fall behind. I wish I could say they have the same setup for math services, but maybe one day in the future. The faculty and staff at Willard are wonderful (from front office to school counselors and specials teachers) and we feel very fortunate to have our children attend this school.

My daughter started at Nashoba Brooks School in 5th grade, and is currently an 8th grader. Nashoba Brooks has been a wonderful experience for her and for our family. The teachers and staff at Nashoba Brooks very quickly saw our daughter and sought to nurture her unique talents and interests, and to bring out the best in her in a thoughtful and gentle way. When there were some behavioral challenges within her class in 5th and 6th grades, the school doubled down on the social emotional curriculum and helped to foster a spirit of collaboration and kindness that has been a blessing for her and her classmates in what are usually more turbulent middle school years. In her time at Nashoba Brooks, my daughter leveled up her leadership skills in so many ways, tried many new athletic and extracurricular activities, and thrived academically. It's been a joy to see her and her classmates blossom, and we could not be more grateful to the dedicated teachers and staff at Nashoba Brooks.
