Amazing school. Good and genuine people all around. Our child has progressed tremendously since we moved here from a NoVA school.

10. This school is phenomenal. I was worried that my children would not be challenged but the teachers we have are the very best quality in every way. Additionally, they are great people. They are exemplary roll models of work ethic, kindness, justice and love of learning. We moved to the area to go to this school based on others parent’s comments and it was the RIGHT move.

I can't write enough positive comments. Truly amazing all around! 100% fantastic. Totally baffled at the 5/10. I know the last time I was on this page it was a 9/10. Not sure what happened, but this still is (and always has been) the perfect start for our children.

C. Hunter Ritchie is THE BEST school in the area. Period! The entire staff of teachers and the administration are top notch. I have had two children go through the school starting with kindergarten (one is in 6th now and the other in 4th) and I couldn't be happier with their academic success. The school presents a love of learning and respect both for the staff and students. The classes are perfectly sized and the "all in" attitude of each teacher is clearly evidenced by the extra activities they offer. The physical education teacher offers year round after school activities geared towards fitness; the music teacher offers a full scale musical production and honor choir; the librarians offer Battle of The Books; I could go on and on. The very approachable Principal and VP make it easy to address any concerns regarding your child. The teachers: AS stated earlier, they are TOP NOTCH! Truly dedicated in their profession and commitment to each child. My kids absolutely love school and that is simply because of the teachers and the staff who create an environment that is warm, invigorating and enjoyable all around. I Love This School!
