Southampton Middle School

Nothing but an exceptional experience. Children have made amazing educational progress while being enrolled.

My children did not feel supported at the school. They were both bullied terribly because they were not in the popular kid crowd. They self reported multiple times and while bullying in the lower school is somewhat addressed the middle school is a joke. My son’s feet were literally peed on under the bathroom door and the head of the school laughed it off. He did not feel supported in the school at all. My younger child had special learning needs so we left because she got more support in our public school. They do have lots of events to get parents in the school. They always ask for donations during these events. We were satisfied with the majority of the teachers but if you had to move up the chain of command, it was a waste of time. We were asked to sign an NDA when we left the school because of the ways my child was treated. We did not sign anything. They didn’t push it because they knew we had enough information to damage their reputation. We joined a group of 5 families and reported on ways neurodivergent kids are treated. It is my mission for people to really ask around before assuming kids with learning differences get better assistance in a private school.

After homeschooling for 9 years, my kids were ready to be in a more traditional classroom. We visited Grace and immediately knew it was the right place for them to finish their education. Grace has been the perfect fit for my three youngest children - all with distinct personalities and very different needs. The faculty and staff meet children where they are with a humble, connected, Christ-like attitude. They nurture natural curiosity and foster authentic relationships with peers. There is a palpable sense of community into which my children were immediately accepted! Not only that, the classical Christian education my children are receiving is top notch. I have been using the classical model for a long time and it's truly one of the best, most rigorous ways to educate children. We are so grateful that our family has found a special home at Grace!
