- Submitted by parent on August 22, 2017This school has been a wonderful place for my two children whose personalities are different from each other, but are each nurtured and supported in ways that match the individual child. My children are truly happy to go school and have learned to integrate high level concepts through play and experiential learning. We look forward to many years ahead at The Cottage School!
- Submitted by parent on January 09, 2017Judgemental environment for children, parents and staff alike. Very appealing at first but such a disappointing and damaging experience for my child and me.
- Submitted by parent on April 27, 2015A pressure-free atmosphere and dedication to details is what makes this school incredible. As an educator, I have seen play dwindle in the school and emphasis placed on work - so much is lost with this shift. I wanted to ensure my child had a place to play and develop independence, creativity and imagination, especially in today's educational climate. Since starting, my three year old's story-telling skills have blossomed - she picks up random characters, creates original stories from the interactions she imagines in her mind, as modeled in daily story circle. She also applies skills from her Spanish immersion by identifying objects by color in Spanish. The Cottage School community is amazing. The entire educational team are welcoming, warm, dedicated people. Parents are also warm and inviting. Everyone works to support each other and the school community by volunteering our time. The older students help to guide and care for the younger ones, very similar to the one-room school houses of long ago. If you long to foster a love of learning, creativity, and development of interaction with peers that is cooperative and nurturing, this is the perfect setting. thecottageschools.net
