Silver Spring School

This is our third year at The Gordon School and we could not be happier! We moved to Rhode Island from out of state during the pandemic, with a rising 3rd grader who we were worried about transitioning to a new school and a new preschooler, and feel so incredibly lucky to have found Gordon during a period of such intense transition for our family. Our sons immediately connected with their classmates and teachers, and we all felt so comfortable from day one. The sense of community and belonging here is so special, and the focus on social-emotional learning and diversity, equity and inclusion makes Gordon a truly welcoming environment. The teachers and administration are exceedingly committed to making learning fun and exciting and meeting the students where they are.

My two children attended OSMS for a combined total of 13 years. We could not have been happier with our experience there. The teachers meet children where they are, provide extra support when needed, and foster a deep love of learning. The school tends to the whole student and teaches strong social-emotional skills along with the academics. The facilities are no frills, which helps to make the tuition affordable. It was a true privilege to be a part of the OSMS community, which so closely mirrored my own values. I will always be grateful for OSMS!
