Orchard School

my kids really enjoy school and their teachers at RMCS. They are excited about learning, going to school, and trying new things. We're thankful for the teachers at RMCS.

We really enjoyed our time at Edmunds. Its nurturing, cheerful environment and small close knight community are a great combination.

ICS is a hidden gem! It provides the best education I know of in this area. This school offers a very high level academic curriculum in a caring atmosphere. Academics are rigorous, but taught in a way that engages students so that they own their own learning, which lets them enjoy it. Students gain independence but also learn how to collaborate effectively. The faculty is second to none. The student body is very diverse. We feel so lucky that we found this wonderful school for our daughter

I’m a current 9th grader at Rice Memorial High School in South Burlington, Vermont. I went to MCS from 5th through 8th grade, so I spent a total of four years there. Overall, it’s a great place with genuinely good teachers. There were a few I didn’t necessarily like, but that’s just personal preference. The school has a really welcoming community, and most people are super chill.Classes were medium in difficulty, definitely challenging sometimes, but I felt pretty prepared for high school afterward (even if I forgot everything over the summer...). MCS was great, but the only thing I'll miss are two friends that I probably won't ever see again, yet MCS was definitely a big part of shaping who I am today. I think it's because high school is absolutely crazy compared to middle school... (and I don't know if that's good or bad)The classrooms are tidy, and most teachers really care about what they’re doing. There are also occasional field trips, which were always fun (whether it was out of state or just somewhere local). Academically, MCS helped me grow a lot, and it really did feel like a safe place!! And if you're wondering about clubs, athletics, or academics, you can find all that and more on the MCS Website (mcschool.org)My advice: If you ever need help, talk to the teachers — they’re really there for you. Even if it feels scary, they’re willing to help as long as you reach out. There were many times when I felt isolated but was too afraid to ask for help, and I wish I hadn’t been. Please don’t be afraid to speak up. You’re not alone. And also… just be yourself. People aren’t as judgmental as you (and I) think they are. ;)8.8/10 — would recommend this school. Really solid overall. If you consider attending this school, make the most of it! My middle school years felt pretty wasted and there's a lot I wish I could've done, but once it's gone, it's gone.Thanks for reading!! Have a great day or night !!!! :)

I wish our three kids could spend their entire school career inside CKS. From top to bottom there is not one single thing I would change about CKS. My family has lived in 5 different states and this school is by far the VERY BEST!

Its has been great for our son.
