Phenomenal school! Nothing about this school is sub-par, despite some other reviews. The grounds are well kept, the school has had many upgrades over the past few years that keep it current and beautiful. Teachers are well trained and keep our children engaged and challenged. For a private school in the area, we face the same difficulties as others do-- it is a battle of rising tuition and rising property taxes. Something has to give-- the only critique I can make is that the tuition needs to be significantly lowered to increase the amount of students attending.

If your child has special needs forget it. Principal is awful. Very exclusionary environment. Disappointed.

Outstanding educational experience with very high standards. Small class sizes that focus on individual needs and growth of students. Extended days allow students to spend half the day learning English subjects and half the day learning Hebrew and Judaic studies. The school alerted me about OT needs of my child and assisted me throughout entire process. School even worked with me to get summer services for my child so that my child will not fall behind. Students are educationally stimulated and challenged in all areas and are physically active. Students do not sit in a classroom all day long; they move around. Huge gym and outside play area. The library is even set up for children to "hang out" quietly. The arts and sciences are strongly emphasized and all children participate. There is a student-run garden. The school also composts and recycles. The teachers and staff truly know how to make learning fun. I especially love that there is a very strong focus on community service, student participation, self-awareness, and awareness of global events. Teachers and staff are always responsive and attentive by phone, email and in-person meetings. Most parents are very involved.

This school is about the academics and much more - it is about educating in the true sense of the word
