Phenomenal leadership, instructional, and support staff on location. Parents are constantly kept informed, some might even say too much, Ha! ** Caution** The local Board of Education, rather than keep the very effective, top in the state "status quo" is implementing a "Re-imagine" strategy which is
Posted by a parent on 7/14/2020My oldest child just completed Kindergarten this year and we can't believe what was achieved in just a half day session. My child is reading, writing and solving math problems. Good friends were made. Lots of fun memories. Most importantly my child is truly ready for first grade. As parent we can't
Posted by a parent on 8/30/2013I have 2 children at BPS and so far am extremely impressed by the teachers, the curriculum, the extra activities, eg, the BPS olympics to build team spirit and cohesiveness. The prinicipal is very approachable and knows every single student and parent by name.
Posted by a parent on 8/28/2013All four of my children have gone through Brookside Place School and I could not be more happy with their experience there. Some of the highlights are the high level of instruction and care by the teachers, the way the principle knows every parent by name, and the community atmosphere of the excitin
Posted by a parent on 2/21/2013We are new to the area and so impressed with the administration and staff. Especially in light of the recent flood, they all have been phenomenal. In response to the review about racism, we are sensitive to the issue also and are confident if/when the issue arises (as it will anywhere public or priv

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAs a raised Kenilworth resident, I had fond memories of the school system and had such high hopes. With covid, we had moved back into town and with my own child attending Harding Elementary, the past 2 school years have been disheartening. The school system protects its image over the well being of the students and will always brush the most severest cases under the rug. The entire school board and school faculty LACKS diversity and we have been treated with racism and favoritism. My child has had nothing but trauma from this school and has no motivation to pursue academically. The school prefers to point fingers at my child versus taking responsibility or action towards anything/anyone else, as it’s easier than solving the actual matter. With a real estate career of my own, fair housing is not only my duty but my love for society and people. As a parent, I have not remained silent and will continue to spread awareness when it’s rightfully so. Everyone is entitled to their own, I speak solely about our experience. No child should have to feel isolated, unfavorable, and singled out due to race or privileges (in the school/town system). We will not continue to take residency or take part of the school system for the future.Parent Review3y ago - The Arc Kohler School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageChristopher Academy is the most amazing Montessori School! I had two daughters who experienced the 2 1/2 year old program through 1st grade and the experience was wonderful. Both my daughter's teachers were incredibly supportive and they both got a very good academic foundation remaining very strong students with keen interests in learning. I highly recommend Christopher Academy in Westfield and the Montessori approach to learning!Parent Review1mo ago - St Michael School
