Camden Youth Development

We enrolled our child at St. Peter’s School (SPS) because of their stated mission of 'nurture, character, and compassion.' Unfortunately, our experience revealed a staggering gap between that mission and the school's actual practices.If your child is a 'standard' learner, you may never see this side of the school (although most of the parents are anxious either way). However, if your child has any developmental difference, be warned: SPS prioritizes administrative convenience over inclusive education. We saw our son’s development pathologized and met with a culture of exclusion.A truly diverse and compassionate community does not scapegoat children for classroom management challenges. We are sharing this so other families of children with different learning timelines, or children who exhibit robust personalities (especially boys), can make an informed decision before trusting this administration with their child’s psychological safety and exorbitant tuition for very little ROI.
