Just an incredible school with great resources and communication! We have been here for 2 years and love it. As many have stated, the principle Ms. Lowndes is amazing. The teachers here care so much about the development of the children in all areas. They are very responsive and seem to know every k
Posted by a parent on 12/28/2022My kids have been in that school for the past sevan years. First of all the whole staff is wonderful but the most amazing one they have is the principle Mrs Lownes. She is so caring so friendly and the day that she really impreesed me was when a explosion happend and she came to the center to stay a
Posted by a parent on 3/17/2022I could not imagine a better place for my kid to go. Being a Spanish immersion school, the staff and teachers are accepting of all kinds of students from very different backgrounds. They really try to make the school a special and accepting place for each child and it shows. My daughter has blossome
Posted by a parent on 1/26/2022I wish we had never sent our kids there. We have had vastly superior experiences at other schools.
Posted by a parent on 6/19/2020The principal and vice principal are incredible. My son is in the Spanish Immersion program and the teachers that he has been assigned have been fabulous. He has learned SO much! The parents and PTA are also very active. My only slight disappointment comes from their ultra PC stance. They don't cele

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWhen Principal Hedlund led the school, we were having a more positive experience. There was accountability within the staff and parents. Communication was clear and much better. Since Principal Russell has stepped in, that has all gone down hill. There’s been several safety concerns that goes unaddressed or parents aren’t aware until AFTER it’s happened. The teachers are poor communicators (especially in the 4th grade), no accountability and often show favoritism. As a parent I could not be more disappointed in the negative turn Shepherd has taken.Parent Review3mo ago - Rosemary Hills Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI have one son at Lowell and another who has graduated. Both have loved their school experience. Lowell is their family and their home. They feel free to come as they are and learn deeply. Neither of them has experienced undue stress over school, although they have been challenged. They are comfortable to try new things, including any sport they want, playing instruments, taking part in plays, running for student government, giving speeches, and being away from home for Lowell’s fantastic capstone trips. We have found the Lowell community friendly and welcoming, from the teachers and staff to the parents to the students themselves.Parent Review3w ago - Lycee Rochambeau French International School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWhile the education is good, they are entirely too harsh and unfair in how they punish young children. The downside of a private school is they ultimately care more about money than the health of the children.Parent Review11mo ago - Quality Time Early Learning Center

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI have been a parent of Quality Time for about 8 years. My daughter attended the daycare from 2 years old until the pandemic and now my son is 4 in the PreK program. I consider Quality Time a part of the family. Considering that my daughter is now 10 and I still remember all of her teachers, this place has truly made an impact in our lives. She's had a strong academic journey thanks to the amazing start at this center. Since leaving this center, my daughter has excelled academically and continues to be at the top of her class. My son is also doing well. I will be sad the day that I have to say goodbye this part of our chapter.Parent Review6mo ago - Kehillat Montessori - Kemp Mill Montessori School
