Talk about a nightmare scenario. The president and middle school director along with the help of the school psychologist forced me to withdraw my child from this school in the middle of the year. We were given a choice when the president counseled us out of the school: withdraw our son or face eventual expulsion. With no easy choice, we withdrew our child who has Autism/Aspergers Syndrome. This sudden change sent our child into a tailspin. Thank You Roeper administration for the stress, mental anguish, and emotional down spiral inflicted on our child and family. Job well done! George and Ann Marie are proud of you!

Roeper is a wonderful school. I have two gifted children who struggled in other private schools due to academic boredom and social fit. One of my children is highly sensitive and the other has some issues with hyperactivity and sensitivity to outside stimuli (excessive noise etc.) Roeper does a wonderful job of meeting their needs. At Roeper my children are taught to view the world and academic information critically, and use their newfound knowledge to solve problems. For the first time, my children love their school and cannot wait to go each day. They are happy. They address teachers by first name and the dress code is casual; but, do not be fooled - the academics are rigorous. Interestingly, my children have gone from complaining about excessive homework / busy work given at other schools to being engaged with their work and wanting to exceed expectations because they are given so much responsibility and accountability for themselves. We were really at our wits end in trying to find just the right school. We could not be happier with our choice to send out children to Roeper.

All schools should be like the Roeper school. Children are valued and partner with the teachers and administrators in their education. Academics are varied and strong but the social emotional development gained here is even greater. Highly recommend this school.
