    "imaginative, creative, strikes me as the best way to learn--and such a great atmosphere--if I had children I'd send them here. I loved it!"

    "While I am not a parent at the school (I don't have any children), I am a community member who is a supporter and fan of the Mustard Seed School program. After having been introduced to MSS years ago, I continue to be amazed by this school's unique, innovative, and rich approach to education. The school has found a way to incorporate into their daily routines a wide variety of learning experiences, such as establishing an "I Love Math Day," offering children choice and freedom as they work on their art projects, giving a book to each child on their birthday, matching younger and older students for mutual learning and mentoring, and providing worship times that highlight a variety of faith traditions. Community is fostered amongst children of diverse backgrounds which enhances their shared learning. I appreciate that financial scholarships are provided to fifty percent of the student body, enabling all families the opportunity to participate in this outstanding educational experience."

    "This school is a small school that seems to be run like a club for kids of board members and faculty. If you are not a part of this exclusive club, as we found out, your child will not be treated equally. The academic standards are quite low, and extra curricular activities are minimal. There are very few reasons to send your child to this school, unless you are offered some kind of financial aid."

    "I have three kids spread out across the different programs at MSS. The school has a very challenging curriculum and places every year their students in the best high schools in the area. Moreover, the learning takes place in a broad multidisciplinary setting, providing the kids with the ability not only to learn the material, but to constantly find it in different areas. Equally important to me, the school community instills in my kids the kind of values we teach them at home, helping in a significant way to turn them into happy, responsible, hard-working, curious kids, that are confident to shape the world around them. All good schools are able to make good students learn math. Only great schools makes them resourceful in the way they approach these and other problems they will face in life. It is great to see how my kid on 6th grade perseveres over hard math problems this work ethics will be invaluable in his future. I strongly recommend MSS for families looking for a great school and community."

    "I am a parent of three Mustard Seed alumni.They are three very different children and each received an excellent education,suited to individual style and needs. They all reported feeling very well prepared for competitive high school work. I think that in addition to a good academic program, they benefited from emphasis on time management, management of materials and study skills. In addition, they experienced a loving diverse community and couldn't imagine life being any other way."
