"The teachers at this school are phenomenal, dedicated, and brilliant. My daughter's class teacher is wise and intelligent, thoughtful and caring... she is thoroughly devoted to every child in her class. She makes learning fun, interesting, relevant and beautiful. I am awestruck by how much my child is learning. The waldorf inspired curriculum is very different than what you would find in any standard public school--and it works! There are many other teachers: Spanish, Handwork, Games, Orchestra, and Eurythme. Each of these are state of the art programs that teach the children wonderful skills that are developmentally appropriate/useful. The school administration is fabulous. The Principal is an excellent leader, she runs the school very smoothly, respectfully, and successfully. Long story short: I could not ask for a better school for my child. I don't think you could find a school that does a better job of educating children--(public or private). Most importantly, the school is focused on developing the whole child. So not only does my child do math, science, etc., she also LOVES reading, plays violin, has good manners, and is becoming a well rounded person."

"4 years ago, we moved 500 miles to be a part of this school -- we would do it all over again. It's everything we had hoped for and more."

"I love the school. The school offers an affordable classical waldorf education that would normally be unattainable."

"In the world of shrinking state funding, this school still has a lot of wonderful programs. My son has orchestra, painting, singing, handwork, PE, and Spanish, in addition to great academics. Strong teachers, leadership, and parent involvement are key! We love our school."

"They do have a wonderful program that TRIES to give the children a well-rounded education. In theory, the idea is sublime. Practice of the theory, not so. If the teacher was determined that the students learn the 3 Rs beginning in the early grades, students quite possibly might walk away from this school with a good, well-rounded education. This is not common. Math and other tutoring/lessons can be expensive. Isn't something lacking in the education if a child spends 6+ hours/day and then visits the tutor? At times it seems that because the curriculum offers so much more than a mainstream public school, people are willing to overlook the lack of learning in the 3 Rs and 'call it good.' Until this changes, the school will only be average. The school is well-run, the administration is committed."
