    "My son is completing his first year in the GT program at Kyffin. It is the first time [and four schools later] where we cannot find anything substantially negative to comment about a school. This is not your typical neighborhood school. Parents are very involved in the school. Teachers and staff appear to really care about each child. The principal is approachable and will hear & listen to your concerns. Our son's 1st grade GT teacher was quick to address any concerns or issues we might have had and kept you in the loop of your child's progress throughout the school year with general weekly letters to all parents and relevant and personalized comments in the weekly Friday Folder comments. Our son has been extremely happy at Kyffin and although he is working 1-2 years above grade level isn't burnt out and still loves school. His teacher really understands and respects the educational boundaries of each child and encourages parents in the classroom and welcomes their ideas."

    "I have 2 children at Kyffin, and have to say it is a remarkable school. Both kiddos have different strengths academically and socially, but both are flourishing at Kyffin. Academics are emphasized, but every child has opportunity be it with the regular program, or additional activities like Chess Club, Science Fair, or Artistic activities to be successful and motivated. The Principal and teachers are first class, and the parent support for the school outstanding. This is an excellent school."

    "As a parent of two Kyffin kids I cannot say enough good things about this school. I had a very shy little girl who lacked confidence, she has been in this school for 2 years now and I have seen leaps and bounds in her confidence level! I think alot of credit goes to the staff at this school for her improvement! Thank goodness for the staff here and being able to choose your school. Thank you, thank you to all Kyffin staff!"

    "This school is going down hill. Rating used to be a 10, next year probably an 8. Prior Principal set the school up for a downhill slide. Placed utmost importance on the GT program and completely filled the school to overcapacity with out of area students. Traffic problem is huge, sense of entitlement without volunteering or supporting the school is much elevated. The school is crowded although the addition of 'temps' have helped. The amount of teacher turnover last year was more than we have seen many many years. There is a very dedicated group of core parents that really support the school with time and dollars, but they are evaporating as the students from the neighborhood move on."
