Discovery Elementary is a truly amazing place and school. Your children will learn, grow, and develop, and most importantly they will be surrounded by talented educators who really care for your child. I couldn't recommend Discovery more.

Awesome. It was weird at first to look at a multiage school honestly. I kept picturing Little House On The Prarie. That said, for us multiage has been an advantage. Our kids learn to work with different types and ages of people. There is a strong connection to the teachers as the teachers really get to know the kids. We love the fact gym and music are everyday. That’s helped keep out kids more focused and both teachers of those classes are amazing.Multiage might not be for everyone but if you’re curious call them and check it out. It’s not what I had pictured at first and I’m grateful our family is there.

I love this school ! They stay with the same teacher for two years. They are very willing to work with children with special education needs. I always feel like we are listened to, and our child's needs are their number one priority. I can't tell you enough how great this school is. It is worth the wait.

I've had 2 children attend Discovery Elementary. My daughter was able to attend after going to another area school from K thru 3rd grades. She was struggling in that school, dreaded going, and we were not happy with teachers or the administration. In her 1st year at Discovery, our daughter's grades went up from Bs and Cs, to mostly A's. Best of all, she LOVED going to school. Our son has been attending Discovery for 5 years. He loves the place, and is doing exceedingly well. The multi-age classrooms enables the older students to assist the newer/younger kids. The atmosphere is more like family and community, rather than school and home. We, as a family, consider ourselves very lucky to have been a part of such a tremendous program.
